The kitchen itself is extremely spacious with a wraparound island and a comprehensive range of fully integrated appliances. The adjoining utility room adds further practicality, providing either a second kitchen, or extra space for laundry and household storage. This has a separate external access point, which is ideal for busy family living or muddy boots after countryside walks. This setup offers real flexibility for growing families - a space that supports everything from school morning schedules to relaxed weekend lunches. Practical Aspects - A very large, dedicated, fully fitted home office/study at the rear provides an ideal space for remote work or focused quiet time. The converted basement includes five separate rooms offering a wealth of options - whether for storage, hobbies, a home gym, a playroom, or even fitting out as a cinema snug - there's flexibility here to tailor to your lifestyle. A convenient ground floor WC with a leaded feature window completes the practical layout. With so much functional space, the home satisfies all the demands of modern family life. Bedrooms & Bathrooms - The first-floor hosts four vast double bedrooms, each offering generous floor space and classic styling. Two bedrooms feature spacious en-suite shower rooms with the master being particularly grand, while the main family bathroom includes a four-piece suite with bath, walk-in shower, inset basin, generous mirrored/concealed storage and WC. Though traditional in design, these spaces were of the highest quality in their day and provide a strong foundation for upgrading into a luxury modern setup that complements the home's heritage. There's space here for everyone - with room for children to grow, guests to stay in comfort, and parents to enjoy a peaceful retreat at the end of the day. Loft Conversion Potential - The expansive loft space, including two rooms historically used as second floor bedrooms, presents a significant opportunity for conversion. Thanks to the wide central landing and original staircase, installing a full staircase to the upper level would be straightforward, paving the way for additional bedrooms or creative/studio space, all while preserving the grandeur of the existing layout. For large families or those seeking multi-generational living options, this is a golden opportunity to futureproof the home with valuable extra space. Outside Space - The home sits way back from the private lane behind a long, tree-lined driveway, offering privacy and a true sense of serenity. There is ample parking to the front, and on the rear drive. On one side of the house facing south/west, a beautifully kept garden awaits, featuring a large York-stone paved suntrap terrace perfect for outdoor dining, and an expansive lawn with wildlife pond, all framed by mature trees. Although the lawns are manicured, all the planting in the wide borders over the years has been designed to remain as natural and low maintenance as possible. The property's wooded setting is wonderfully peaceful with a subtle soundtrack of birdsong, offering a sense of natural calm that feels more countryside retreat than suburban setting. It's an idyllic spot for children to play safely, for summer BBQs with loved ones, or for simply unwinding with a coffee and a good book surrounded by the peace and quiet of lush nature. On the opposite side of the house there is a second smaller patio and lawn which is fenced in, providing a further safe area play for young children, or enclosure for pets. Location - High Bank Lane is one of Lostock's most discreet and desirable addresses - a quiet, tree-lined, private cul-de-sac of prestigious homes surrounded by greenery, secluded from the bustle, yet incredibly well connected. Residents benefit from close proximity to some of Bolton's finest schools, including Bolton School and Clevelands Preparatory, as well as excellent public options. Middlebrook Retail & Leisure Park is a mile away, offering everything from supermarkets and high street names to restaurants, cafes, and family entertainment. Lostock mainline station is a 3-minute drive/20-minute walk away, and Horwich Parkway mainline station is within a short drive, both offering direct routes into Manchester and beyond, including Manchester Airport. Junctions 5 and 6 of the M61 are both within easy reach, keeping road travel quick and simple. Golf lovers will enjoy having Bolton and Regent Park Golf Clubs virtually on the doorstep (each only a five-minute walk away), and nature enthusiasts are only minutes from the walking trails, reservoirs, and viewpoints of Rivington, Smithills and the surrounding Pennines. It's the perfect location for modern families seeking peace, space and exclusivity - without compromising on connectivity, education or lifestyle convenience.

A Nod To Its Past - Originally constructed in 1885 as a Wesleyan Congregational Chapel, Chapel House occupies a unique place within the history of the Whittlestone Head hamlet. Built to serve the local rural community, the handsome stone building became a familiar landmark, distinguished by its impressive proportions, lofty ceilings and striking architectural detailing that still define the property today. During the 1960s, the former chapel was thoughtfully converted into a private residence, carefully preserving many of the building's most distinctive features while creating a spacious and practical family home. The conversion successfully retained the character and craftsmanship of the original structure, allowing its ecclesiastical heritage to remain an integral part of the home's identity. Living Spaces With Character - An elegant entrance porch opens into what is undoubtedly one of Chapel House's most remarkable spaces-a spectacular reception hall and sitting area that immediately showcases the building's fascinating heritage.

Fitted with an extensive range of quality german Shuller cabinetry, generous corrian work surfaces and integrated appliances, the kitchen flows effortlessly into the dining area, providing an ideal setting for both everyday living and larger gatherings. A third wood-burning stove enhances the ambience, whilst large windows frame the surrounding countryside and flood the room with natural light. A separate dining room offers excellent versatility and could equally serve as a snug, playroom or additional reception room, whilst a generous study provides an ideal environment for those working from home.

The grounds gently extend away from the property, creating an idyllic parkland-style setting with ample space for family recreation, garden parties or simply enjoying the tranquillity of the countryside.

Originally a corn mill, the building has been expertly reimagined to blend its rich industrial past with refined contemporary living. Striking original beams sit beautifully within vaulted ceilings, while extensive glazing floods the generous interiors with natural light, creating a series of bright, airy and highly impressive spaces that celebrate both character and design. Jolly Mill is particularly appealing to those who value space, privacy and a strong connection to the outdoors. From peaceful summer evenings spent on the balconies or terraces, enjoying sweeping valley views, birdsong, and the gentle flow of the river below, to hosting family and friends within the home’s grand yet welcoming entertaining spaces and gardens. Children can explore and play safely within the private grounds, while hobbyists and equestrian enthusiasts will appreciate the freedom to spend time with horses or enjoy the workshops at leisure. Quite simply, Jolly Mill offers a way of life that is as rare as it is rewarding.

The six pairs of oak French doors give access to balconies on all sides and tastefully frame different angles of the gorgeous surrounding scenery. A large log burner holds the centre of the space and is sure to emit a warming orange glow when required. Owing to the very generous size of this room, if needed, it could easily be a multi-functional room, adding to the versatile and flexible appeal for modern family life. Bedrooms & Bathrooms – Middle Floor - Head down the bespoke oak staircase to a large hallway connecting the bedrooms and bathrooms. The grand proportions continue on this floor too, most notably in the master bedroom and family bathroom where the rooms are of palatial scale.
