A mid-terraced Victorian two‑bedroom property with long lease and immediate vacant possession — a straightforward purchase for investors or first-time buyers prepared to renovate. The house sits close to Platt Fields Park and local amenities including restaurants, shops and good public transport links into Manchester city centre.
Internally the layout is traditional: ground-floor living room, dining area opening to a compact kitchen with utility space, and two double bedrooms plus a family bathroom upstairs. The property is in need of modernisation throughout, offering scope to reconfigure rooms, update the kitchen and bathroom, and increase rental or resale value with targeted improvements. EPC shown as C.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (circa 945 years), nominal ground rent (£5), low council tax band and no onward chain. There is street parking to the front and a private rear yard for low‑maintenance outdoor space. The property is currently vacant and benefit from C4 use, making it suitable for buy-to-let or a first home after refurbishment.
Be clear about the work needed: the listing describes the property as needing renovation and some mid‑century fittings remain in the kitchen. The house sits in a generally deprived area but records very low local crime and excellent mobile and fast broadband — useful for renters and commuters. Buyers should allow budget for updating finishes, services checks, and redecoration to realise the home’s potential.
