Canal-Side Charm Meets Modern Comfort in This Stylish End-Terrace
Wake up each morning to peaceful views across the Bridgewater Canal in this beautifully modernised two-bedroom end-of-terrace home. Combining the timeless appeal of a 'cottage-style' exterior with a fully updated interior, this characterful home offers both style and serenity in equal measure.
Inside, you’ll find a sleek, modern kitchen complete with integrated appliances, ideal for everything from a quick breakfast to a cosy dinner party. Two generously sized double bedrooms provide ample space for rest and relaxation, while the contemporary décor throughout creates a welcoming and move-in-ready feel. With no onward chain, your next chapter could begin without delay.
Step outside into your south-east facing garden – a tranquil suntrap perfect for morning coffee or evening drinks.

To the front, a private driveway with space for two cars ensures parking is never a problem, whether you're coming home from work or welcoming guests.
The location is equally impressive – not only are you within walking distance of Leigh town centre, local shops, and the scenic canal path that leads to Worsley and the beautiful Pennington Flash, but you’re also just a short stroll from the renowned Bents Garden Centre. For commuters, access to the East Lancashire Road is quick and easy, connecting you seamlessly to Manchester, Warrington, and beyond.
Whether you're seeking a peaceful hideaway or a stylish space to entertain, this charming canal-side home ticks every box.
