Period detail and a spa-style bathroom close to local schools and transport.
Original York Stone entrance flooring and striking stained glass window
A handsome Victorian terrace that blends original period detail with contemporary comforts, this two-bedroom home on Stockport Road offers characterful living in a convenient Gee Cross location. The entrance hall makes a memorable first impression with original York Stone flooring, a sweeping staircase and a stained blown-glass feature window. The lounge centres on an exposed brick chimney breast with a multi-fuel burner; original concealed bi-fold shutters and a separate dining room keep the period feel intact while providing practical living space.
Upstairs are two bedrooms and a roomy four-piece bathroom with a slipper bath and high-spec shower — a rare, spa-like family bathroom in a terrace. Useful storage is provided via a partially boarded loft with pull-down ladder. The modern fitted kitchen delivers good storage and a clean finish, and the small private courtyard is an easy-care outdoor space for evening dining or relaxing.
Practical considerations: the house is solid-brick and likely uninsulated within the walls, double glazing installation date is unknown, and the EPC is D. The property sits in an area classified as very deprived, which may affect long-term value growth compared with more affluent neighbourhoods. Council Tax is low and running costs are helped by gas central heating and a multi-fuel burner.
This home will suit buyers seeking character and space in a compact, low-maintenance package — families or first-time buyers who value period features and are comfortable with some older-house characteristics. The combination of original detail, a generous bathroom and convenient location makes this a distinctive choice for those prioritising style and practicality over new-build uniformity.
