9 Buckingham Close, Helmshore, Rossendale

NESTLED WITHIN A DESIRABLE CUL-DE-SAC, FEATURING A SUPERB SOUTH FACING REAR GARDEN & ASPECTS. Approached from Mercer Crescent and well placed for both local schools and the A56(M) motorway link is this 1990's BUILT, DISTINCTIVE MODERN HOME WITH THE BENEFIT OF A LONG REAR CONSERVATORY/ DINING ROOM.

Constructed by 'Badger Homes' on the final part of this popular residential development, many of the original residents still occupy homes in this pleasant cul-de-sac. Enjoying a long front garden and adjacent two car driveway gated to the side, the house has strong kerb appeal further enhanced by the private South facing rear garden with elevated hillside views.

An entrance hall with a tiled floor guides you into the spacious, bay fronted lounge. Here a focal point, bleached wood fire surround & marble hearth is complemented by laminate wood flooring with an oak finished door to the breakfast kitchen. Thoughtfully planned to include a dining/sitting area plus a  peninsular breakfast bar, the wood grained fitted kitchen is an ideal family space. Accessed from a door at the rear is the PVCu framed, double glazed conservatory currently used as a dining room and having French Double Doors opening directly out to the garden.

The first floor landing has the gas combination boiler ( replaced in 2022) concealed within a bulkhead cupboard and leads to a bay fronted, double main bedroom, second rear double and front facing single bedrooms. Completing the layout is a three piece white bathroom with plumbed-in, thermostatic controlled shower over the bath.

The fully enclosed rear garden is a true delight with fenced/ paved side area, mature lawn and a sheltered, dedicated seating patio at the base.
