Newly renovated two-bedroom mid-terrace, move-in ready
This newly renovated two-bedroom mid-terrace offers a ready-to-move-in layout and modern fixtures, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking low-maintenance living close to Ashton and Oldham. The living room is bright, the kitchen has contemporary units and space for dining, and the compact rear patio garden is easy to manage. A recently fitted bathroom and useful storage cupboards add practical convenience.
Practical running costs are favourable: EPC C, mains gas central heating, and very low council tax (Band A). The long lease (over 780 years) removes short-lease concerns common to some urban properties. Transport links are strong with regular bus services and quick access to the M60, making commuting straightforward.
Be clear about the neighbourhood context: the area is classed as very deprived and described locally as ‘challenged white communities’, which may affect long-term resale values for some buyers. Broadband speeds are average; mobile signal is excellent. The house is a Victorian solid-brick build—original walls likely lack modern cavity insulation, which could mean higher heating demand despite double glazing.
Overall, this property suits a first-time buyer or someone downsizing who wants a tidy, renovated home with low immediate maintenance. It also appeals as a buy-to-let for investors comfortable working within a tougher local market and focused on rental demand from nearby workers.
