A bright, move-in ready 2/3-bedroom end-of-terrace with high-standard finishes throughout, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking low fuss living. The property has been newly modernised and presents immaculate rooms, a contemporary kitchen/diner and a large loft room that doubles as a third bedroom or home office.
Practical benefits include gas central heating, UPVC double glazing and a long lease (940 years) with a nominal ground rent of £2. The low-maintenance front and private rear garden with artificial turf and shed suit buyers who prefer minimal upkeep. Nearby transport links (Hollinwood tram stop and M60) and local schools make daily travel and family life straightforward.
Buyers should note the house sits in an area assessed as very deprived; prospective purchasers may want to check local services and long-term area plans. The building is an older (c.1900–1929) terrace and walls are assumed cavity with no installed insulation recorded — further insulation work could be considered to improve energy efficiency. Tenure is leasehold; the long remaining term reduces typical lease risk, but confirm lease details before purchase.
Overall this is a practical, ready-to-live-in starter home offering flexible space (third loft room), low running costs and strong commuter links, balanced against local area challenges and potential improvement opportunities for insulation.
