Summary -
3 Park Parade,Shaw,OLDHAM,OL2 8DB
OL2 8DB
3 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Chain-free period home with garden and driveway, ready for updating.
3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, suitable family layout
This 1930s semi-detached house on Park Parade offers period character and practical family space across two floors. The layout includes a through lounge with bow window, conservatory, fitted kitchen and three bedrooms, with two bathrooms providing ready adaptability for family life. A private front garden, large rear garden and driveway parking for two cars add outdoor space that is increasingly rare in the area.
The house retains attractive original features — bow and circular windows, curved plasterwork and fireplaces — which provide a strong foundation for sympathetic updating. The long lease (988 years) and nominal ground rent (£4) remove common leasehold hurdles, while the property being chain free speeds any purchase. Nearby schools rated Good to Outstanding make it practical for families.
Important negatives: the property needs renovation and modernisation throughout, which will require time and budget. It sits in an area classed as very deprived, and the site has a medium flood risk that should be investigated by buyers. Tenure is leasehold despite the long lease; EPC currently D with scope to improve. These factors affect running costs and resale planning but also mean good potential to add value with targeted works.
Overall, the house suits buyers seeking period character and outdoor space who are prepared to invest in renovation. It will particularly appeal to families who want proximity to well-rated schools and off-street parking, or to renovators looking to capture upside in a sought-after parade location.
