This two-bedroom mid-terrace on Bowler Street offers a practical, well-presented home in Shaw, suitable for first-time buyers, downsizers or buy-to-let investors. The lounge is bright with neutral décor, and the separate kitchen opens onto a low-maintenance paved rear garden — easy to manage and good for casual outdoor use.
Upstairs provides two well-proportioned bedrooms and a modern three-piece bathroom. The property is of average size (approximately 726 sq ft) with period red-brick character, standard ceiling heights and double glazing installed before 2002. Heating is by mains-gas boiler and radiators; mains services are in place.
Practical advantages include strong local transport links to Oldham and Manchester, nearby shops, schools (several rated Good), parks and leisure facilities. Council tax is very cheap, and there is clear rental potential in a hard-pressed rented-terrace area for investors seeking steady demand.
Notable cautions: the house is leasehold (long lease remaining: 818 years) and sits in a deprived local ward with a high proportion of rented terraces — an important factor for long-term value and resale. Some fittings (double glazing pre-2002, typical period finishes) may need updating over time. Buyers should verify services and appliances independently.
