Positioned just off the kitchen, the utility room provides further practicality with plumbing for washer and dryer, along with additional storage to keep everyday life beautifully organised and out of sight, as well as an allocated space for a large freestanding American-style fridge-freezer.
The dining area sits directly in front of the bifold doors, creating a natural flow for entertaining and enhancing the sense of indoor-outdoor living during warmer months. Within this open-plan space is also a secondary lounge which is ideal for relaxed evenings after work and keeping the little ones close while remaining connected to the heart of the home. A dedicated reading nook or homeworking space further enhances the adaptability of this thoughtfully designed layout.
To the front of the property, the principal lounge offers a refined yet welcoming retreat. A large bay window floods the room with light, while a biofuel burner set within the chimney breast — framed by modern timber cladding and complemented by an oak mantel — creates a warm and characterful focal point. Generous in scale yet certainly homely, this is a space equally suited to cosy, quiet evenings or larger family gatherings.
Practicality is seamlessly integrated into the ground floor interior design, with a spacious entrance hall finished to the same high standard as the rest of the home, a downstairs WC tucked beneath the stairs, and a dedicated cloakroom ensuring coats, shoes, and daily essentials remain neatly organised.
The luxury feel of the ground floor is completed with underfloor heating and Karndean flooring with decorative borders throughout, apart from the lounge, which is instead grounded by a thick carpet, enhancing the homely vibe.
Bedrooms & Bathrooms - Upstairs, the premium specification and interior design continue. High-quality internal doors match those downstairs, while spotlights illuminate the landing and corridor, reinforcing the home’s contemporary finish.
The master bedroom is particularly impressive in scale and outlook, with a bay window framing views towards neighbouring woodland. Bespoke fitted furniture including a dressing table with drawers and a fitted headboard enhances both style and storage. This theme continues into the substantial walk-in wardrobe/dressing room, where matching premium fitted cabinetry creates a luxurious and highly functional dressing space.
The remaining three bedrooms are equally well considered, each benefitting from premium-quality fitted furniture in keeping with the home’s overall aesthetic. The fourth bedroom is currently arranged as a home office, offering flexibility while retaining its proportions as a single bedroom if required.
The family bathroom is a showcase of quality and craftsmanship. Fully tiled walls and flooring create a sleek, contemporary backdrop, enhanced by a tiled alcove with inset lighting. Villeroy & Boch sanitary ware underlines the stylish specification, while the generous walk-in shower features dual Hansgrohe shower heads — rainfall and standard — delivering a hotel-style experience. A freestanding bath complements the vanity basin perfectly, and a matte black feature towel radiator adds bold contrast to the light grey matt tiled walls.
Outside Space - Externally, the property offers generous yet low-maintenance outdoor space, perfectly aligned with modern family lifestyles. The attractive frontage is accessed via low brick pillars, opening to a large driveway with artificial lawn and decorative planting adding a touch of easy maintenance greenery. A canopy with tiled floor and oak structure shelters the front door, creating an elegant and welcoming entrance. An EV charger is also installed on the driveway, and side access leads conveniently to the rear.
To the back of the property, a patio immediately outside the bifold doors provides the ideal setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. Beyond this lies a large artificial lawn that enjoys sunlight throughout the day. It is an attractive space for both relaxation and play. There is ample room for al-fresco dining, summer barbeques, and safe enjoyment for children, combining practicality and outdoor lifestyle appeal.
Garden Studio - The brick-built garden outbuilding significantly enhances the versatility of this already exceptional home. Currently arranged as a home office, it offers great flexibility. It is equally suited to running a business from home, creating a home gym, establishing an art, music or hobby room, or a dedicated wellness or yoga space. Complete with its own WC and basin, it provides a partially self-contained environment that supports modern working and family living requirements.
Location - Smithills Dean Road offers the rare advantage of immediate access to open countryside while remaining exceptionally well connected.
At the same time, Bolton and surrounding villages provide a comprehensive selection of amenities, from established restaurants and traditional country pubs to a wide choice of schooling options, retail hubs, and everyday conveniences.
Smithills Country Park is within a stone’s throw, making this location particularly appealing for nature lovers and dog owners alike. Miles of scenic trails and green space are moments away, offering an enviable setting for walking, running, and outdoor leisure.
Excellent transport connections ensure ease of travel, with convenient access to the national motorway network and several nearby rail options offering routes into central Manchester and beyond.
