Ready-to-move-in Victorian terrace near Metrolink and local schools.
Victorian two-bedroom mid-terrace, circa 1900–1929
Immaculately presented and thoughtfully updated, this Victorian two-bedroom terrace balances original character with contemporary comfort. A bright open-plan kitchen/diner with peninsula island sits at the heart of the home, while a cosy front lounge and a generous master bedroom retain period features such as a fireplace and high windows. The private rear courtyard with decking and raised beds offers low-maintenance outdoor space for relaxing or entertaining.
This property is well placed for first-time buyers and young families, a short walk from Besses o’th’ Barn Metrolink and local shops, schools and amenities. Practical details include a modern bathroom with walk-in shower, understairs utility/storage, gas central heating and double glazing (installed before 2002). The home measures around 710 sq ft and sits on a long lease (847 years remaining).
Be candid when budgeting: the house was built circa 1900–1929 and has cavity walls likely without added insulation, and the glazing is older double glazing. The immediate area is rated as relatively deprived, which may affect future resale values though council tax is very low. Overall this is a well-presented, affordable terrace offering a ready-to-move-in base with scope to improve energy efficiency over time.
