Set on Rochdale Road, this three-bedroom Victorian end-terrace blends period character with exceptional outdoor views. The side garden looks out over the Rochdale Canal and surrounding valleys — ideal for families who want countryside walks and cycle routes on the doorstep. Off-street parking for four cars is a rare practical bonus in this area.
Inside, an open-plan lounge and shaker-style kitchen provide a bright, usable ground floor with dual-aspect windows. Bedrooms occupy the two upper floors, with a generous top-floor master room lit by a Velux and side window. The property is well placed for commuting: the local station is within walking distance (approx. Manchester 23 mins, Leeds 45 mins) and motorway links are close by.
Buyers should note material issues plainly: heating appears to rely on portable electric units in most rooms, and the stone walls are assumed uninsulated. There is a medium flood risk for the area. The home is leasehold with a long remaining term (circa 830 years) and an EPC rating of D. These factors make the house well suited to buyers willing to invest in heating and fabric improvements for long-term comfort and value.
This is a practical family home or commuter base for someone who values outdoor access, character features and parking, and who is prepared to upgrade heating and insulation over time. Local amenities, good primary and secondary schools rated Good, and low local crime add to the location’s appeal.
