Set on a tree-lined residential road in Old Trafford, this bay-fronted four-bedroom detached home sits on a generous plot with front and rear lawns, gated driveway and a single garage. The house keeps period character — high ceilings, bay windows and original features — while offering practical family spaces including an extended family room, dining area and useful cellar.
Practical upgrades include majority double glazing and a new roof installed in 2024. The property benefits from gas central heating, fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and off-street parking for several cars. Local amenities, good primary schools and Metrolink stations at Firswood and Trafford Bar make commuting and family life straightforward.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold sale by Modern Method of Auction. There is a long lease (c. 798 years remaining) but auction purchase involves a non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of price, minimum £6,600) and a Buyer Information Pack fee. The area scores as relatively deprived; prospective buyers should check local market factors.
The house offers clear refurbishment potential — solid brick walls likely lack cavity insulation and many internal finishes are dated. This makes the property attractive to families seeking space and character, or investors aiming to add value through targeted updates.
