For spacious family living in one of Heaton’s most sought-after postcodes, look no further than Number 143, New Hall Lane.

With links to Bolton’s rich mill-town history, this four-bedroomed family home is built within the estate of original mill owner’s mansion, Brookland – the stone wall forming its front perimeter is the original stone boundary from this prestigious estate.

Beyond this, a large driveway provides comfortable parking for up to three cars, in addition to the substantial garage.

Immediately, sense the spaciousness of this home as you step into the bright and welcoming entrance hall.

Cream tiling to the floor is laced with a mosaic pattern of pearlescent dark chocolate, caramels and latte tones, banding a ribbon around the central island.

The consummate chef’s kitchen, stand at the island to slice and dice with everything to hand whilst enjoying views through the patio windows out to the garden. Once the prep is complete, turn around and cook up a storm on the oven behind you.

Ceramic splashback tiles in similar hues to the banding on the floor sit behind the free-standing Zanussi five-ring gas hob with double oven. Other integrated appliances include a dishwasher whilst a country-style Belfast sink unit sits beneath the window, with its glorious outlook over the rear lawn.

Above the multitude of cupboard units, hidden speakers are wired in, perfect for setting a soundtrack to your culinary creativity. Don’t worry, being a detached house, you won’t disturb the neighbours…
