This recently refurbished mid-terrace home in Astley Bridge delivers clear move-in readiness with contemporary fixtures throughout. Ground floor open plan living flows into a modern kitchen/diner, and a large flagged rear yard provides easy, low-maintenance outdoor space. The property suits first-time buyers, small families or investors seeking a ready-to-rent home in a well-connected neighbourhood.
Upstairs are two well-proportioned bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom finished to a high standard. The house benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing (install date unknown) and attractive wood-effect flooring downstairs. Local amenities, good primary and secondary schools, and regular bus links to Bolton and Manchester make day-to-day life straightforward.
Practical points to note: the home is leasehold (875 years remaining) with a nominal ground rent of £2. The external walls are cavity as built with no confirmed added insulation, and the EPC rating is D. Parking is on-street only. These factors affect running costs and future improvement options but do not detract from the property's immediate usability.
Overall, this is a tidy, characterful Victorian terrace updated for contemporary living. It offers a low-hassle purchase for buyers wanting a comfortable first home or landlords after a straightforward rental asset in an affluent area with very low crime and fast broadband.
