This tidy two-bedroom semi-detached home on Calico Close offers straightforward living close to Manchester city centre and The University of Salford. The house presents a spacious lounge, a refitted dining kitchen with French doors to a private, low-maintenance rear garden, and off-street parking — practical features for first-time buyers or investors seeking an easy-to-manage property.
Internally the layout is traditional and well presented: two double bedrooms and a fitted three-piece bathroom upstairs, with laminate and carpeted floors and UPVC double glazing throughout. The development is modern (built c.1996–2002), the boiler and radiators run on mains gas, and the long lease (967 years) removes typical leasehold urgency for buyers.
Costs are modest: a low monthly service charge of £30.57 (includes buildings insurance), peppercorn ground rent and very low council tax (Band A). The location is a strong selling point — short walks to Salford Central and Crescent stations, Peel Park and the River Irwell walking trail, plus a cluster of nearby schools and university facilities.
Important considerations: the property sits in an area classified as deprived, which may affect long-term capital growth and lettings profile. The home is average-sized (around 624 sq ft) with a single bathroom — potentially limiting for families. Overall condition is described as well presented but buyers should confirm specifics (electrics, boiler age and any required maintenance) at survey.
