Set on a large corner plot in a quiet cul-de-sac, this detached three-bedroom bungalow delivers rare 180° views across Manchester and open countryside. The private, south-facing rear garden and summer house make the most of the outlook; five lawns, patio and space for a greenhouse create flexible outdoor living. The home is freehold and chain free, with two driveways and a detached garage providing generous parking and storage.
Internally the rooms are well-proportioned with a large front lounge that faces the panoramic views, an open-plan kitchen/diner with patio doors, three double bedrooms and a single bathroom. Practical updates already in place include gas central heating (boiler fitted 2017 with warranty), uPVC double glazing and a smart meter. The loft is partially boarded with a drop-down ladder and light, offering accessible storage or conversion potential.
There is significant scope to modernise and extend (subject to planning permission). Neighbours have completed loft conversions and extensions on the street, and the plot could take a connecting garage addition, dormer/loft conversion or lateral extension to create open-plan living. The bungalow sits within walking distance of Werneth Low Country Park and Gee Cross village amenities, with direct bus routes and nearby train stations for commutes into Manchester.
Buyers should note this is a mid-20th century property that will likely benefit from updating to suit contemporary tastes; it has one bathroom and a partially boarded loft rather than a fully converted upper floor. Overall, the house is a strong buy for someone seeking a spacious, single-storey home with outstanding views and clear potential to increase living space and value subject to planning.
