Description
The Home
A large semi detached stone cottage which historically had links to Ladybridge Hall and is nestled within a private cul-de-sac just off Ladybridge Lane which connects directly into Chorley New Road opposite Markland Hill. Standing at around 1780 sqft, the accommodation is larger than may be expected form the exterior.
Our client purchased the property during 2020 and completed an extensive modernisation program, including new kitchen, bathroom, electric and boiler system.
Many areas were re-plastered, insulation was increased both within the subfloor and ceilings and a garden studio has been created which offers great flexibility and is ideal for home working.
The gardens themselves are very generous in terms of size. There is an enclosed front garden area and cobbled drive to the side whilst the tiered gardens include a number of seating areas positioned to enjoy the views towards the nearby fields and golf course.
The sellers inform us that the property is Freehold.

The Area
Heaton is one of Bolton’s most prestigious areas and Ladybridge Lane hosts a selection of generally large, individual and quality homes. It is worth noting the lane does not provide access to other developments, therefore limiting the quantity of traffic. Beyond Woodsleigh Cottage there is just one detached home and the Bolton School Scout Headquarters.
Despite Heaton being relatively well developed in terms of quantities of homes, this particularly property provides something of a semi-rural feel due to the open fields and views and nearby golf course.
Many people are attracted to the area due to the popular nearby schooling and excellent transport links. Lostock train station is around 1.5 miles away and junction 5 of the M61 is around 3 miles away.
Popular schooling is another strong characteristic of the area and combines both state and private education. Bolton School in particular attracts many people to settle within the town and is just around less than 1 mile away. Heaton also includes a number of popular pubs, restaurants and leisure facilities.
Many locals consider Manchester as an appropriate distance to work, shop and socialise and for those who enjoy spending time outdoors the area has access to Doffcocker Nature Reserve, which is ideal for dog walking, running etc…
