Characterful two-bedroom cottage near Broadbottom station, ideal for first-time buyers.
Two bedroom mid-terraced stone cottage with period character
A compact two-bedroom mid-terraced stone cottage set on Lower Market Street, ideal for first-time buyers or commuters seeking character close to transport links. The lounge centres on a Morso multi-fuel stove that creates a cosy focal point, while the shaker-style dining kitchen provides practical space for daily living and dining. Broadbottom station is a short walk away with a 30-minute commute to Manchester, making this a convenient base for city workers.
The house retains period features—stone facade, exposed brick and traditional proportions—but is small (around 461 sq ft) and would benefit from targeted updating to improve comfort and energy performance. The property has PVC double glazing installed before 2002 and gas central heating, yet the sandstone walls are assumed to be without insulation and the EPC is rated D. Buyers should factor potential improvement costs into their budget.
Outside, a decked rear yard with two garden stores offers low-maintenance outdoor space and storage. The home is freehold and in a very low-crime area, with good mobile and fast broadband speeds—useful for remote working. Local schools are nearby and the village green and amenities give a pleasant, community feel.
This cottage is a straightforward purchase for someone wanting a characterful starter home with clear scope to add value through modernisation and insulation improvements. It suits buyers prepared to carry out modest renovation rather than those seeking a fully modern, spacious property.
