About this home

Nestled away on a private road in a peaceful semi-rural setting, Brook Lane is a substantial Victorian end-terraced home offering far more space than you might expect from its modest frontage. Positioned on the edge of the Winstanley Hall Estate, the property combines original character, generous outdoor space and a stylish modern interior.

The property is entered via a welcoming hallway leading into a comfortable lounge, which features a beautiful bay window allowing plenty of natural light into the room, together with a gas fireplace adding to its character.

To the rear is a spacious dining area, complete with a multi-burner stove and patio doors opening directly onto the rear garden. This provides an excellent space for both everyday dining and entertaining, with the added benefit of views and access to the substantial garden.

The galley-style kitchen is fitted with attractive shaker-style cabinetry and provides space for appliances, while retaining the practical layout expected from a traditional Victorian property.

To the first floor are two well-proportioned bedrooms. The main bedroom benefits from an original fireplace and useful built-in wardrobes, while the second bedroom is positioned to the rear of the property and enjoys lovely views over the surrounding area. The family bathroom is well appointed with both a separate bath and shower.

Externally, the property really comes into its own. To the rear is a substantial garden offering an excellent amount of outdoor space, with views across the local playing fields. There is also ample parking and a large detached garage, providing valuable additional storage and parking facilities.

The property enjoys a fantastic location on the edge of the Winstanley Hall Estate, offering a peaceful setting whilst remaining conveniently placed for everyday amenities. Local shops, convenience stores, cafés and other services can be found within the surrounding Winstanley, Pemberton and Orrell areas, with Wigan town centre also easily accessible for a wider selection of shops, restaurants, bars and leisure facilities. Winstanley Hall itself is a significant local landmark, with its surrounding estate providing an attractive backdrop to this part of Wigan.

There are a number of well-regarded schools within the surrounding area, including St John's CE Primary School and St Peter's Catholic High School, with the latter located on Howards Lane in nearby Orrell. The area is also well served by bus routes, while nearby Orrell and Pemberton railway stations provide further transport options.

For commuters, the property is ideally positioned for access to the M6 motorway, providing convenient connections towards Manchester, Liverpool and Preston, whilst Wigan town centre and its mainline railway stations are also within easy reach.

Combining a surprisingly generous amount of accommodation, original Victorian character, a substantial rear garden, ample parking and a large detached garage, all within a peaceful semi-rural setting, Brook Lane is a truly unique property that needs to be viewed to appreciate the space and setting on offer.
