Full Details

A rare find on the ever-popular Ashford Rise, this detached postmodern home sits with quiet confidence at the head of a cul-de-sac. Its position brings both a sense of seclusion and a remarkable ease of connection — to excellent schools, woodland walks, lively cafés and bars, and the nearby M6 and M61. This is a house with two clear qualities: it is immediately a warm and generous family home, yet it also carries the promise of becoming something more — a forever home, adaptable to the changing shape of family life. The approach, via a two-car driveway, leads to an oversized double garage, its brickwork softened by mature ivy. Inside, the porch gives way to a light-filled hall, where the staircase rises elegantly and doors connect to the garage, a downstairs w.c., and the heart of the home. Here, the open-plan living space unfolds — a place defined by light and flow, with large windows and French doors opening to the garden. The kitchen, finished with colourful shaker cabinetry, granite worktops, and a breakfast bar, is both practical and sociable. One side is anchored by a fireplace and sitting area, the other by a family space that bridges cooking and conversation. Beyond, a 25’ sunroom stretches the width of the house — a remarkable space that blurs the boundary between inside and out, with wide views across Whitley that shift with the seasons. A utility room and the expansive garage, which once carried planning permission for an extension above, complete the ground floor.   Upstairs, a broad landing opens through French doors to the outside and leads to three double bedrooms and one single. Two are currently interconnected, and all enjoy elevated views across Wigan. A spacious, well-appointed family bathroom completes this level.   The garden at the rear is private and generous, mainly lawn, enclosed by mature planting. A flagged seating area is positioned to catch the sun and frame the view — a place to gather, reflect, or simply enjoy the quiet.   This is a home of light, space, and possibility — ready to be lived in, and ready, too, to be gently shaped into the perfect family retreat.
