A Private Family Home in the Heart of Heaton

Set behind electric gates on one of Bolton’s most prestigious roads, Westmorlands is a well-proportioned detached home offering flexible accommodation across three floors. With five bedrooms, multiple reception rooms and generous outdoor space, it’s a great fit for growing families looking to settle in a prime location close to excellent schools and transport links.

Just a short walk from Bolton School and Cleveland’s Prep, and within easy reach of Lostock train station and the M61, the property offers convenience without compromising on privacy or potential.

A Warm Welcome

Pull up through the secure gates and you’ll immediately appreciate the scale of the plot. A sweeping block-paved driveway provides parking for multiple vehicles and leads to a detached double garage with remote-operated doors - ideal as the family grows. There’s also an EV charger in place.

Step inside to a spacious hallway finished with solid German oak flooring, which flows throughout the ground floor and landings. The light-filled layout creates a practical and inviting space for everyday family life, while subtle cornicing and high ceilings add a touch of character.

Space for the Whole Family

The home’s flexible layout includes three separate reception rooms. To the front, there’s a peaceful sitting room that works well as a snug or home office. Next door, a generous lounge with a central fireplace offers space for everyone to unwind.

At the rear, the open-plan kitchen, dining and living area is the social hub of the home. Finished with granite worktops and fitted with a Belling seven-burner gas range with three ovens, it’s a practical and well-sized space for families or entertaining. The kitchen island provides breakfast seating, while the adjoining dining space looks out to the garden through French doors. A utility room sits just off the kitchen, keeping the main space clear for everyday living.

The home also benefits from ample built-in storage throughout, including a large understairs cupboard and eaves storage on the top floor.

Five Bedrooms Across Two Floors

Upstairs on the first floor, the main bedroom spans the full length of the house and includes a walk-in dressing room, large en suite bathroom, and direct access to a private balcony terrace. With room for outdoor furniture - or even a hot tub - it’s a brilliant space to enjoy the sun in peace and privacy.

Two further double bedrooms on this floor are joined by a Jack and Jill en suite shower room, while a fourth room makes an ideal study or nursery.

On the second floor, two further double bedrooms and a modern family bathroom offer privacy and flexibility - ideal for older children, guests or multi-generational living.

A Plot with Potential

The rear garden includes a raised decking area that enjoys the sun for most of the day, with a lawned section and mature borders providing a blank canvas for those with plans to develop further. Whether you're looking to extend the house, landscape the garden or simply enjoy the space as it is, there's plenty of room to work with.

To the front, the large plot offers secure off-road parking for several vehicles, with additional gated access leading up to the detached double garage.

On Your Doorstep

Heaton remains one of Bolton’s most sought-after residential areas, and Chorley New Road offers excellent access to a wide range of amenities. From here, you’re within walking distance of Bolton School, Cleveland’s Prep, and other well-regarded local schools, as well as just a short drive from Lostock Station, the M61, and Middlebrook Retail Park.

The area is also home to several golf clubs, leisure centres, and green spaces, including Doffcocker Lodge and the West Pennine Moors.
