The home

A home which offers around 10,000sq ft of accommodation, spread over three floors and offering a remarkable level of versatility.

In its most basic form the home includes eight bedrooms, nine bathrooms, six reception rooms, two kitchens and the added, indulgent characteristics, of a home cinema and a two storey detached garage, the top floor of which is currently used as a gym plus additional integral double garage.

It is important to note that the home can function both as one huge home or as two sizeable individual dwellings, if desired. As such, the property may well appeal to those buyers looking to live in close proximity to a family member but still enjoy their own space.

Children’s bedrooms have been designed to include dressing room and study areas plus ensuite facilities whilst the two largest bedrooms include particularly significant proportions, one of which has the added benefit of a private balcony area which enjoys the aspect to the rear.

The quality and specification throughout the home are very impressive and there has been excellent thought put into the flow of accommodation which combines both traditional and contemporary living styles.

Given the unique characteristics, we would ask that any interested party contact Ben Washington at Lancasters Estate Agents to discuss the property in greater detail.

The Area:

Stepping House and Lodge occupies a secluded yet convenient location just off Beaumont Road and with easy access via Ravenhurst Drive’s own traffic lights towards Chorley New Road. Being positioned here allows excellent access to Cleveland’s Preparatory School, Markland Hill and Lostock County Primary Schools plus the highly regarded Bolton School. In addition, the school bus routes for a number of other well-regarded schools are all within walking distance of the property (e.g. Bury Grammar, Bridgewater School, Westholme etc).

For those working closer to Manchester, commuting is particularly convenient with access to Lostock train station (around half a mile) and also junctions 5 and 6 of the M61 (approx. 2 miles). Many locals would consider Manchester, and the Trafford Centre as an appropriate distance to work, shop and socialise but please note that there are a great variety of amenities within the surrounding areas plus a number of sports clubs within the immediate area (e.g several tennis and golf clubs and a David Lloyd Gym all within approx. 2.5 miles).

Day-to-day shops and services can be found at the out-of-town retail and leisure complex close to the football stadium which has been ranked as the number 1 retail park in the UK. Horwich Town Centre offers a more traditional style of independently owned shops and services including butchers, bakers, cafes and restaurants.

The area is equally well placed for access to impressive open countryside including a stretch of the West Pennine Moors, The Smithills Estate which is owned by The Woodland Trust and Rivington which is known as a ‘mini Lake District’ by many locals.
