Character 3 bed home with good-sized south facing garden.
Discreetly positioned at the higher end of a quiet, character-filled period street, this elegant Edwardian residence immediately captivates with its striking façade and timeless kerb appeal. Nestled in the heart of Swinley—one of Wigan’s most desirable and fashionable addresses—it offers the perfect balance of heritage charm and modern convenience. Residents can enjoy a vibrant lifestyle with boutique cafés, restaurants, trendy bars, Mesnes Park, Haigh Hall and Wigan Infirmary all within walking distance. Spanning 1,058 sq. ft. across two floors, this rare gem presents an exceptional opportunity for discerning buyers seeking a unique home of character in a highly coveted location. Stepping inside, you can feel how well this home has been cared for, while still leaving room for new owners to put their own stamp on it. The entrance hall makes a charming first impression with its distinctive tiled floor and original spindle staircase leading upstairs. The front living room has recently been refreshed and is beautifully styled, with a cosy feature fireplace and a large bay window that bathes the space in natural light. To the rear, a separate dining room and fitted kitchen flow out through the door into one of the home’s highlights – a private good sized garden that enjoys sunshine throughout the day. It’s the perfect spot for morning coffee, evening drinks, or relaxed weekends outdoors, and comes complete with a handy brick-built outbuilding with the opportunity for conversion to make a home office. Upstairs, the layout has a lovely traditional feel, with three bright and airy bedrooms ( 2 doubles) and a modern family bathroom fitted with a sleek three-piece shower suite. All the bedrooms benefit from high ceilings, while the master feels particularly special with its stripped wooden floorboards and original cast iron fireplace. Other benefits include gas central heating and partial double glazing. Altogether, this is a home full of charm and character, blending period features with modern comforts, and offering the perfect setting for family life, entertaining, or simply relaxing in style.
