The Home:
A well cared for property which has been owned within the same family for many years.
The prominent location is well placed for access to the A6 plus the transport links which greatly benefit the village. These include train and motorway links within around 1 mile.
The layout includes a lounge through dining room with access to a conservatory together with a well presented kitchen. The former ground floor shower room is used as a utility and dswc and to the first floor there are two bedrooms together with a shower room.
The gardens have been hard landscaped to create a low maintenance finish and it is worthy of note the village enjoys excellent access to the surrounding countryside.
The seller informs us that the property is Freehold
Council Tax Band C - £1,938.40
The Area:
Blackrod is a popular village within the BL6 postcode area and therefore benefits from brilliant access to key transport links such as Blackrod train station which is around 1 mile away, as is Junction 6 of the M61. As a result, many locals consider Manchester and the Trafford Centre as an appropriate distance to work, shop and socialise.
The Ofsted rated 'Outstanding' Blackrod Country Primary School is further up Manchester Road itself and it is worth viewing a satellite image of the property to appreciate the abundance of open space immediately to the front.
We find that in addition to the transport links, a strong factor attracting people to the general area is the access to this excellent countryside. The neighbouring area of Horwich has great access to a stretch of the West Pennine Moors and Winter Hill, together with large areas owned by the Woodland Trust, whilst the village itself includes access towards Haigh and the neighbouring village of Adlington which includes a stretch of the Leeds-Liverpool canal.
In terms of commercial facilities, the village includes a handful of shops and services, together with doctors and a library, with further opportunities available within Adlington, Chorley and Horwich town centres working 'hand-in-hand' with the out-of-town retail development, close to the football stadium which is a distance of around 2.5 miles away.
