Leicester Avenue, Horwich, Bolton, BL6

The Home

Our clients purchased during 2016 and have completed an excellent program of modernisation.

Big ticket items, such as the kitchen, windows, soffits and facias have been renewed together with the heating and electrical system.

The lead reception room has been opened up into the entrance hall which creates a great sense of space, and this well-presented room is finished with a recently fitted log burner.

The two double bedrooms are served by large four-piece bathroom.

It is worthy of note that the enclosed courtyard has a gate leading to a wide rear service road which some residents use for parking.

The sellers inform us that the property is Leasehold for a term of 999 years from 29th September 1897 subject to the payment of a yearly Ground Rent of £ with a ground rent of £1.88

Council Tax is Band A - £1,451.39

The Area

Leicester Avenue runs between Mason Street and Crown Lane and therefore is considered an excellent location for access to both Horwich town centre and also towards Blackrod train station. This train station is on the main line to Manchester and the town itself includes many independently owned shops and services, together with some national supermarkets. There is open space within walking distance for those wishing to get out and about.

More generally speaking, many people settle in Horwich due to the pleasant surrounding countryside which includes part of the West Pennine moors and the adjoining village of Adlington includes a stretch of the Leeds-Liverpool canal. Larger retail outlets can be found at the retail park close to the local football stadium and there is also close access to Junction 6 of the M61.
