Asking Price £825,000
Substantial executive detached home with wonderful corner plot & waterside setting.
Enviably tucked away in a highly coveted & exclusive development that comprises just 15 houses, Woodlands Park Close is a prestigious, tree-lined & gated community conveniently located on the Haigh / Wigan border in a setting where houses seldom come available.
Boasting what is comfortably the best position on the close nestled right in the corner of the development & benefiting from complete privacy and seclusion, the home rests alongside the River Douglas & easily occupies the largest plot which extends to approximately 1 / 3 acre in size.
The property has undergone various alterations since it was built, improving considerably on what was already a very impressive home. A full width vaulted ceiling extension to the rear has cleverly improved layout and added precious living space downstairs, plus a fantastic full loft conversion has created a luxury master bedroom with beautiful en-suite.
The result, both inside & out is an exceptional, modern living space that provides a luxury finish set across three floors and some 3377 square feet of living space. Over recent years notable additions such as new floorings throughout, general upgrading plus a completely new underfloor heating system downstairs have helped elevate the property further.
The decor throughout is light & modern & the home in brief comprises; a large welcoming hallway which gives access into a cloaks / wc, a beautiful 27ft main lounge with feature bay window, a stunning vaulted ceiling dining room / sitting room with French Doors that open out onto the garden, plus the immaculate kitchen diner. The kitchen itself is a stylish, bespoke kitchen diner & comes complete with granite work tops & range of quality integrated appliances, spot lighting & superb, contemporary blue & grey units, with access through into a useful rear utility room & study.
Upstairs is equally impressive - with four double bedrooms located on the first floor, three of which benefit from en-suites & fitted units, plus there is a simply stunning principal bathroom suite. To the second floor is the exceptional master bedroom which utilises the full width of the loft space & boasts Velux windows plus a dressing room with fitted units & a beautiful en-suite.
Externally the position of the property is key here; tucked right in the corner of the development with a plot that extends to the front, side and rear. Professionally designed & landscaped, the garden is notable for its privacy due to the mature trees & screening, plus because of its size it enjoys sun all day (the rear is just off west & benefits from late afternoon sun). The rear & side boast a beautiful Indian Stone patio that provides numerous seating areas & the gardens rest adjacent to the pretty River Douglas too, creating a peaceful waterside aspect that is rare on modern-style developments.
To the front, the home enjoys considerable frontage via a large garden & spacious block-paved driveway providing ample off road parking for numerous cars & leads through to an integral garage. Locally, whilst the immediate surroundings are a peaceful woodland setting within the beautiful Haigh Plantations, actually the convenience of being a short drive to Wigan Town Centre & its various shops & amenities, plus some outstanding schools are all within easy reach. Furthermore, picturesque canal-side walks are all just a stone's throw away as is the beautiful Haigh Hall Country Park. Early viewings are essential on this exceptional executive detached home.
