Characterful three-bedroom semi with parking and a large rear garden, minutes from Urmston centre..
Three bedrooms in a semi-detached 20th-century home
This well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached home on Stretford Road offers practical family living close to Urmston town centre. The through lounge with a log burner and separate dining area provides flexible social space, while the kitchen and pantry deliver useful everyday storage. Outside, a gated driveway fits up to three cars and a fully enclosed rear garden includes a timber summerhouse and useful outbuildings.
The house is freehold, connected to gas central heating with a modern Worcester boiler, double glazing throughout and loft access — ready to move into with scope to personalise. Returning the reception rooms to two separate spaces is straightforward if you prefer defined living and dining rooms. Local schools rated Good and a very low crime rate make this an attractive spot for families.
Be realistic about the limitations: the property is approximately 846 sq ft, so room sizes are modest for a three-bedroom home and there is a single family bathroom. The rear garden will benefit from routine maintenance, and buyers seeking a larger or fully modernised home may want to budget for cosmetic updates. The wider area is classified as “hampered aspiration,” which can affect long-term resale expectations compared with stronger nearby markets.
Overall, this semi-detached house suits buyers after a solid, characterful family home with parking, private garden and immediate access to local amenities. It works well for first-time family buyers or downsizers who value location, off-street parking and good local schools, and who are comfortable investing modestly to update finishes to their taste.
