About this home

Littleborough village is also within walking distance, offering a wide range of everyday amenities such as independent shops, restaurants, bars, cafe's and other services.

The area is also well served by a number of highly regarded schools, including Wardle Academy and St Andrew's Church Of England Primary School, making this an ideal choice for families.

Approached from the front, the property benefits from a large gated resin driveway , providing generous off road parking for several vehicles. The surrounding gardens wrap around the property and provide a fantastic degree of outdoor space, whilst making the most of the property's elevated position and outstanding far - reaching views.

Internally, the accommodation is arranged over a split level and briefly comprises an entrance area leading to a well-proportioned kitchen/diner, spacious lounge, three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The versatile layout provides excellent potential for a variety of buyers and offers well balanced living accommodation throughout.
