48 Woodhey Road, Ramsbottom, Bury, BL0 9TB WATCH THE VIDEO TOUR FOR THIS PROPERTY Bespoke Luxury in a Prime Holcombe Brook Setting Set on one of Holcombe Brook’s most sought-after residential streets, this exceptional five-bedroom detached home has been completely reimagined and rebuilt to an exacting standard. Behind bespoke electric gates and a newly laid driveway, the property delivers over 3,100 sq ft of beautifully designed, tech-enabled living space - where every detail, finish and feature has been carefully considered. The current owners moved out for a full year to undertake an extensive, no-expense-spared renovation, stripping the house back to its shell before extending, reconfiguring and rebuilding throughout. From new floors and ceilings to a levelled garden, extended ground floor, and an enlarged principal suite with balcony, the result is a home that is effectively brand new – and only lived in for the past six months. With underfloor heating, air conditioning, a whole-house speaker system, bespoke joinery, and luxury finishes throughout, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a truly turnkey home in one of the area’s most desirable locations. An Impressive Arrival Approached via bespoke electric gates, the property immediately makes a statement. A newly laid driveway provides generous parking and leads seamlessly to the integral garage, while stone boundary walls, clean architectural lines and subtle exterior lighting combine to create a strong sense of privacy and presence. The transformation here is striking, with the entire frontage having been reimagined to reflect the quality found within. Step inside through the porch, where bespoke built-in cupboards offer discreet storage, and into a beautifully appointed entrance hall that sets the tone for the rest of the home. Large-format tiled flooring flows underfoot, warmed by underfloor heating, while contemporary wall panelling, sleek aluminium internal doors and soft, dimmable lighting create a calm yet confident first impression. Every element has been carefully considered and custom made, from the cabinetry to the finishes, ensuring nothing feels standard or off-the-shelf. The hallway is anchored by a striking, sweeping staircase with bespoke black metal balustrading and a plush carpet runner secured with brass stair rods, creating a strong architectural feature at the heart of the home. A statement chandelier above adds drama and elegance, drawing the eye upward and setting the scene for the exceptional spaces beyond. The hallway is both welcoming and impressive, immediately communicating the scale, quality and attention to detail that defines the rest of this exceptional home. To the heart of the home, the spectacular open-plan kitchen, dining and family room is designed for modern living and entertaining on a grand scale. Skylights, wide glazing and sliding doors flood the space with natural light, while integrated ceiling speakers, remote-controlled Velux blinds and zoned lighting allow you to set the mood at any time of day. The bespoke kitchen is a real statement – featuring sleek cabinetry, a large central island, and a concealed breakfast/bar area where the doors slide back to reveal dedicated coffee and filtered water stations. There are two large cupboards either side of the bar area, perfect for housing machines and keeping surfaces clutter-free. All appliances are NEFF, including three ovens – one of which features a steam function – each with slide-and-hide doors for seamless access. An induction hob sits neatly within the island, while the integrated fridge and freezer and concealed dishwasher maintain the kitchen’s clean, streamlined look. A pop-up plug socket adds everyday practicality, and a built-in ceiling speaker system completes the space, creating an environment that is as functional as it is impressive for both family life and entertaining. Adjoining is the relaxed family area and dining space, ideal for both everyday life and hosting. Large-format tiles continue here, again with underfloor heating, and sliding doors open directly onto the rear terrace for effortless indoor-outdoor living. The main lounge is currently set up as an impressive cinema-style TV room, creating a luxurious yet comfortable retreat for evenings in. A bespoke media wall, integrated lighting, ceiling speakers and air conditioning set the scene, while dimmable lighting allows you to tailor the atmosphere for movie nights, entertaining or relaxed family time. A further reception room provides excellent flexibility and is ideally suited as a playroom, snug or additional sitting room. Beautifully finished and filled with natural light, it offers a practical yet stylish space that can easily adapt as family needs change. To the rear of the property, a superb, fully equipped gym has been created, offering a genuinely impressive space for training, wellness and relaxation. Fitted with mirrored walls, integrated ceiling speakers, atmospheric LED lighting and air conditioning, the gym is a polished, high-spec space ideal for regular training or wellness routines. A sleek, hotel-style shower area is built directly into the gym space, along with a separate WC, allowing you to move seamlessly from workout to refresh without leaving the room. Large sliding doors open straight onto the garden terrace, flooding the space with natural light and creating a fantastic indoor-outdoor flow for warmer months. A separate home office provides a calm, dedicated workspace, thoughtfully designed with bespoke cabinetry, integrated shelving and a striking built-in aquarium feature that adds both character and tranquillity to the room. With air conditioning, tailored lighting and a clean, contemporary finish, it is perfectly suited for remote working, studying or running a business from home. The utility room continues the home’s high-spec finish, featuring sleek cabinetry, an integrated sink and space for laundry appliances. Clever pull-out drawers beneath the machines are designed to hold washing baskets and clip neatly back into place, adding a layer of thoughtful practicality. A side door provides convenient external access, making this an ideal everyday entrance for busy family life. Heading upstairs via the grand staircase, the sense of quality and craftsmanship continues. The landing opens into a light, beautifully proportioned space in its own right, enhanced by further bespoke wall panelling, soft carpeting and carefully positioned wall lights. A second feature chandelier creates a stunning focal point, while the black balustrade continues the design language and offers views back over the hallway below, reinforcing the home’s strong architectural flow. All five bedrooms are beautifully finished and thoughtfully designed. Each space benefits from bespoke wardrobes, dimmable lighting and air conditioning (excluding the box room), while the landing itself remains a feature, enhancing the home’s cohesive, high-end feel. The extended principal suite is a true sanctuary, designed for both comfort and indulgence. A bespoke headboard and integrated TV wall create a striking focal point, while the walk-in dressing room is fitted with LED lighting throughout, illuminated shelving and a backlit mirror that rises at the touch of a remote. From the bedroom, doors open out onto a private balcony with LED lighting, offering a peaceful spot for morning coffee or evening drinks. The accompanying en suite bathroom is a standout feature, finished in striking marble-effect tiling with brushed gold fittings, twin basins set into a bespoke vanity, a large backlit circular mirror and a luxurious walk-in rainfall shower, creating a spa-like experience within your own home. Bedroom Two also enjoys the benefit of its own beautifully appointed en suite, making it ideal for guests or older children, and continuing the boutique hotel feel seen throughout the property. The remaining bedrooms are all generous doubles, each individually styled with custom-made curtains, pelmets and bespoke cabinetry, ensuring every room feels considered and complete rather than simply functional. The family bathroom is finished to hotel standards, featuring his and hers sinks, a walk-in rainfall shower, and designer tiling and fittings that echo the quality seen throughout the home. Underfloor heating adds an extra layer of comfort, as it does in several of the bathrooms, ensuring a warm, luxurious feel year-round. The rear garden has been completely re-engineered and levelled, transforming what was once a steep, unusable drop into a beautifully proportioned and highly usable outdoor space. A wide, contemporary terrace spans the back of the property, creating the perfect setting for alfresco dining, entertaining or simply relaxing in the sun, with steps leading down to a pristine lawn that is ideal for children, pets or summer gatherings. Above, the private balcony extends the living space further, offering an elevated spot for morning coffee or evening drinks, while subtle exterior lighting enhances the atmosphere after dark and highlights the home’s architectural lines. To the front, bespoke electric gates open onto a newly laid driveway, providing both privacy and a strong sense of arrival. The integral garage adds further practicality, while the combination of clean lines, lighting and quality finishes ensures the exterior matches the standard set within.
