Spacious and practical, this four-bedroom detached house in Shawclough sits on a generous plot within walking distance of Healey Dell Nature Reserve. The ground floor offers open-plan living, a sizable kitchen and a conservatory, while upstairs provides four good-sized bedrooms—flexible for family life or rental occupation. The property is chain-free and freehold, with ample off-street parking and a garage.
Located in a comfortable, relatively affluent suburb with very low crime, the home is close to several well-rated primary schools and benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband—appealing to families and modern commuters. The large garden and room configuration also present clear development potential for extension or reconfiguration, subject to planning consent.
Buyers should note the house appears to need some maintenance and updating to realise its full value; the conservatory is modest in size and there is just one family bathroom for four bedrooms. The listing describes a double garage, but the provided garage dimensions (10.05m x 2.76m) indicate a long, narrow garage rather than a conventional double-width space—inspectors should check suitability for vehicles or conversion plans. Council tax is above average for the area.
Overall, this is a solid family home or an investor opportunity for someone prepared to update and adapt the layout. Early viewing is recommended to assess scope for improvement and to verify the garage configuration and any specific refurbishment needs.
