Summary - 69, Old Road OL16 2SJ
3 bed 1 bath Detached
Large garage and driveway in a peaceful commuter-friendly location.
Detached raised bungalow with rear level access
This detached raised bungalow offers roomy, light-filled accommodation arranged all on one level at the rear, making daily life and garden access straightforward. The layout includes a generous lounge, dining kitchen, study, three bedrooms, a shower room plus a separate WC — practical for family life or downsizers seeking space without stairs between living areas and garden.
Outside, the property stands on a decent plot with well-established gardens, a wide driveway for two cars and a large, extra-wide garage with power, lighting, workshop area and useful under-bungalow storage. Rear-level access is particularly convenient for mobility needs, gardening and loading items into the garage.
Location is a genuine draw: quiet lane setting in a sought-after residential area within easy walking distance of Smithy Bridge station (direct links to Manchester and Leeds) and only a short drive from Hollingworth Lake. Local schools and everyday amenities are close by, and the immediate area reports very low crime and good broadband speeds.
Practical points to note: the property was constructed in the late 1970s/early 1980s and, while well maintained by long-term owners, the EPC is rated D and the exact date of double glazing installation is unknown. Council tax sits at Band E, which is above average. Buyers seeking a newly modernised home should allow budget for energy and cosmetic upgrades to reach contemporary standards.
