With its lush palm trees, there is a tropical riviera  feel about this stunning luxury property situated in one of Bolton's most prestigious locations.

The five bedroomed property in a private gated development on Chorley New Road is one of just four properties has come on the market for £950,000.

Surrounded by beautiful walled gardens, Vernon House, is a spectacular family home which boasts an elegant and sophisticated interior.

Pulling through the ornate, wrought-iron gated entrance onto the development’s block-paved driveway, guests feel instantly transported into a leafy oasis affectionately dubbed the Bolton Riviera due to its scattering of palm trees.

Features include a showpiece central staircase that combines oak, chrome and glass with the hallway adorned with decadent Heritage Print and Barocco Metallics Versace wallpaper.

The kitchen has dual-aspect windows and French doors to the garden draw in yet more light, creating a sunny atmosphere for parties.

The elegant living room is decorated with gold-toned Heritage Print Versace wallpaper that warms the bright white walls and coved ceiling, lit by chrome and crystal linear chandeliers and a trio of broad windows crowned by feature curtain pelmets framing a view over the walled garden. A gas fire with a steel and granite surround and marble mantelpiece acts as a natural focal point and creates a cosy atmosphere for quiet evenings in.

Beyond the master bedroom, there are three additional doubles with light, neutral décor and in-built wardrobes in bedrooms three and four. They share a modern, spot-lit four-piece bathroom, where variegated blue tiles contrast against the white floor and wall tiles while complementing the Versace Les Etoiles De la Mer Dish wallpaper to echo the WC.

David Warburton said: “Bolton itself is home to numerous essential amenities, including all the major supermarkets, discount stores, and multiple retail parks providing a myriad of goods and services, with Middlebrook Retail and Leisure Park only nine minutes by car.

“Of course, you’ll also find a range of excellent restaurants and eateries in the town, along with health and leisure facilities.”

The garden is ‘peaceful’ and secluded, giving families the space they may want to entertain in.
