Bridges, balconies and blissful tranquillity await at Lostock’s best kept secret as a beautiful property goes on the market for £1.6M.

The four bedroom detached house on Sudbury Drive is on the market, now being sold by Newton & Co, with details listed on Zoopla.

The family home offers everything there is for a peaceful and luxurious life including enchanted gardens with a boathouse.

Overlooking a Victorian formal pond of lake-size proportions, The Lake House sits nestled amidst natural greenery making it the perfect place to explore throughout the summer.

Built in 2010 in the garden of a traditional 1870s home, The Lake House stands on grounds with strong links to the local community.

Formerly owned by a local inventor who built a model railway in the gardens for local children to ride on, so unique and striking is its setting, that the current owners have been approached by filmmakers eager to capture the location on the big screen.

The property is home to four double bedrooms on the first floor with a master bedroom which includes an en-suite, a dressing room and balcony.

Each additional bedroom also has an en-suite bathroom and bedroom four also has a laundry room attached.

On the ground floor there is a handy cloakroom and a lounge area with views over the lake which joins onto a piano room as well as a large reception room.

The ground floor also features a high-quality breakfast kitchen, leading to another family lounge snug space at the back.

The property also has a basement which Newton & Co say holds "immense potential" as it could be used as a gym, games room, cinema or another creative use.

Attached to the property is a spacious double garage which is equipped with a WC in one corner and steps leading to a former workshop which has been converted into a large office.

The space could be transformed into an annex.

A two-minute walk from Lostock train station, hop on a train and be in Manchester within half an hour for a day’s shopping spree, or lunch out with friends.

Closer to home, Middlebrook Retail Park is only five minutes’ drive away; handy for the food shop it houses a Tesco, Asda and M&S.

The Lake House is also ideally located for families, within reach of motorway links for commuters and both Bolton School and Clevelands Preparatory School for youngsters.
