Rothwells Farm

Rothwells Farm: Lowton Road, Golborne, WA3 3EG

Development Overview

Rothwells Farm is a substantial new build homes community in Golborne, Wigan, developed by Taylor Wimpey, a 5-star rated housebuilder recognized by the Home Builders Federation for having over 90% of customers who would recommend them to a friend. This thriving development comprises over 400 homes and offers a mix of traditional-look properties with modern, energy-efficient interiors. The scheme has progressed significantly, with the final new-build opportunities now available. The remaining availability is highly limited, focusing on larger family homes. Current immediate availability includes The Teasdale, a 4-bedroom detached house, priced at £379,995, which includes over £7,400 worth of added upgrades.

Property Details

The development features a range of 3-bedroom and 4-bedroom properties, offering flexible living spaces often across two or two-and-a-half storeys. The design caters specifically to families, providing sociable living areas and neutral decoration for personal customisation from day one. Properties such as the 4-bedroom detached Teasdale offer 1272 sq ft of living space, two bathrooms, and two parking spaces. Other house types sold on the development include the 3-bedroom detached Aldenham, which often features three bathrooms and a driveway. A number of properties on the site are sold with a freehold title and still retain the remainder of their NHBC warranty, providing assurance on build quality. The developer, Taylor Wimpey, has been noted for their reasonable but occasionally inconsistent quality, though they are a major volume housebuilder with a good overall HBF rating.

Location Benefits

Rothwells Farm is strategically positioned for commuters, offering easy access to major regional and national road networks. The development is close to the M6 and M62 motorways, as well as the A580 (East Lancashire Road), linking the area to key employment hubs.
