Set on a very large plot at the top of Ripponden Road, this mid‑century detached house offers over 2,500 sqft of flexible family living and countryside on the doorstep. Four reception rooms, a separate kitchen with utility, and a large hallway create generous ground‑floor space for family life, home working and entertaining. The mature rear garden and decking provide a private outdoor room for children and pets.
Three double bedrooms are arranged upstairs, with two en‑suites and a particularly large master bathroom featuring a double jacuzzi bath and oversized shower. Practical extras include an integral double garage, an in‑and‑out driveway with ample parking and outdoor lighting and taps. EPC band C and mains gas central heating serve the home.
The house dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and retains many original features alongside a modern extension, so buyers should expect a mix of character and later upgrades. Cavity walls are present but assumed uninsulated, so thermal improvements could reduce running costs and improve comfort. Council Tax Band G makes the ongoing cost relatively high compared with smaller homes.
This property will suit a growing family seeking spacious rooms, strong parking provision and a large garden close to countryside, with quick access to Oldham and Manchester. It also offers scope for targeted refurbishment to enhance energy efficiency and personalise the accommodation.
