Designed Around Family Life

26 Wayfaring is a four-bedroom detached home occupying a quiet cul-de-sac position in an established residential area of Westhoughton. Updated by the current owners, the property combines contemporary finishes with a particularly sociable ground-floor layout, where the original rooms have been opened up to create a flowing space for cooking, dining and relaxing.

Open-Plan Living

The ground floor has been transformed into an impressive open-plan living space, bringing the kitchen, dining and lounge areas together in a layout that feels sociable and connected while still allowing each area to have its own identity.

At its centre is a contemporary kitchen, finished with dark cabinetry and Silestone worktops, with an island providing additional preparation space and informal seating. Integrated AEG appliances include a fridge/freezer and dishwasher, complemented by an integrated wine cooler and a flush-mounted worktop extractor that keeps sightlines across the room uninterrupted. Subtle under-unit lighting completes the streamlined finish.

Beyond the kitchen, there is space for dining alongside a substantial lounge area, where windows and doors across two elevations bring in plenty of natural light and connect the room with the garden. A biofuel fire creates a contemporary focal point, while the open arrangement works just as naturally for everyday family life as it does for entertaining.

Towards the front, a further dining area provides room for a larger table, with a bay window and electric fire giving this part of the open-plan layout its own character while remaining connected to the wider living space.

A downstairs WC completes the main accommodation on this level.

Practicality Built In

Extended by the current owners, the separate utility room is a particularly useful addition to the house, providing dedicated space for both a washing machine and dryer and keeping everyday household tasks away from the principal living areas.

For dog owners, a fitted dog shower is a thoughtful extra, particularly useful after muddy walks and days outdoors. Double doors provide direct access to the garden, adding to the practicality of the space.

Space to Unwind

Upstairs, the four bedrooms provide a good balance of space for family life, with the principal bedroom standing out for both its proportions and storage. A comprehensive range of fitted wardrobes and dressing furniture provides extensive storage while leaving plenty of room around the bed, creating a calm and uncluttered feel.

The principal bedroom is complemented by a recently renovated en-suite shower room, finished in a contemporary palette with large-format tiling, black fittings and a walk-in shower. Timber-effect slatted detailing adds warmth and texture, while recessed niches, a wall-hung vanity unit and illuminated mirror complete the considered finish.

The second bedroom is another well-proportioned double and benefits from fitted wardrobes spanning one wall. Two further bedrooms offer flexibility for children, guests or home working, while the family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.

Outdoor Living

The rear garden has been landscaped with ease of maintenance and outdoor living in mind. Porcelain paving wraps around the house and extends to a dedicated dining terrace, creating plenty of space for outdoor furniture and entertaining, while artificial lawn provides a practical green backdrop. Raised timber edging, planted borders and established greenery soften the contemporary finish.

A separate decked area sits beneath a timber canopy, creating a more sheltered spot for seating and giving the garden another distinct space for relaxing outdoors. Together, the paved terrace, lawn and covered deck provide a choice of settings for dining, entertaining or simply unwinding.

To the front, the driveway provides off-road parking for two cars, while the detached garage offers further parking or useful storage and benefits from a brand-new garage door. The home's windows have also been refinished internally and externally in matt black, complementing the contemporary updates found throughout the property.

Well Placed in Westhoughton

Wayfaring combines its quiet cul-de-sac setting with convenient access to Westhoughton town centre and its choice of supermarkets, independent shops, cafés, leisure facilities and everyday amenities. Westhoughton Central Park is also nearby, providing open green space and recreational facilities, while Middlebrook Retail & Leisure Park is accessible by car.

For families, the property is well placed for local schooling, with The Gates Primary School and Sacred Heart R.C. Primary School both nearby, together with Westhoughton High School for secondary education. Further primary schools can be found throughout Westhoughton, including St Bartholomew's C of E Primary School and St Thomas C of E Primary School.

The location is also convenient for commuters, with access to the motorway network a short drive away, while Westhoughton and Daisy Hill railway stations provide connections towards Bolton, Wigan and Manchester.
