This spacious Victorian semi-detached house is arranged over three floors and offers five bedrooms, two reception rooms and practical outside space. Located in the sought-after Coppice area of Oldham, it sits within walking distance of Hulme Grammar School and local shops, with Oldham town centre a short drive away — a convenient layout for family life.
The property retains period character with red brick elevations and a bay-windowed living room, while presenting clear potential for updating. Accommodation includes an entrance hall, lounge, dining room, kitchen, a large first-floor bathroom with a four-piece suite, two second-floor bedrooms and a separate WC. A low-maintenance patio garden and a brick-built garage provide parking and outdoor space.
Buyers should note a few material points: the EPC is D and heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more costly than gas central heating. Double glazing was installed before 2002 and may be due for replacement in parts. The property is leasehold with an unusually long effective term (990 years from 1925; c.889 years remaining) and a nominal ground rent of £5 per year.
Overall this is a family-sized home in a well-connected neighbourhood with strong school options nearby. It will suit buyers looking for generous rooms and period features who are prepared to modernise heating, windows and internal finishes to improve comfort and running costs.
