Tucked away ~ On the edge of countryside~
A most desirable and appealing stone residence
Whittle Croft is converted stone dwelling believed to date back to 1753. Approached via Fleet Street ~ a quaint tree lined residential road off Chorley Old Road, Horwich meandering up to two stone detached properties at the top of Fleet Street. In recent years Whittle Croft has been extended and tastefully modernised by the present vendors whilst retaining many original characteristics~ low ceilings~ beamed features~ rustic timber doors with thumb latch handles to name but a few. Whittle Croft is a superb three double bedroom detached residence with two generous receptions, attractive fitted living/dining kitchen, utility and two piece ground floor cloakroom.
Spacious landing offering an “open office space”.
The Principal bedroom creates a “Boutique” style ambience with seductive wall lights and feature contemporary bath and the family three piece shower room is equally luxurious and well designed.
Enclosed garden to rear and generous private garden to front
Attached double garage
Off Road Parking for 2-3 vehicles
Available by appointment only
Viewing strongly advised
