Substantial Edwardian proportions meet careful modernisation in this recently renovated four-bedroom semi-detached house on Whalley Hayes. High ceilings, original cornices and period fireplaces sit alongside a bespoke kitchen, new gas-fired boiler and double glazing, offering wide family living spaces with contemporary comfort. The ground floor layout includes three reception rooms and a breakfast kitchen that opens onto a southerly rear garden—ideal for alfresco dining and family time.
Practical features include a lower-ground cellar, large utility room, gated block-paved driveway and a detached garage. The plot is generous for town-centre living, with lawned side gardens, raised beds, decking, an Indian stone patio and greenhouse space for keen gardeners. Day-to-day access from Grosvenor Street gives convenient parking and entry while the house remains tucked away behind a dwarf wall on Whalley Hayes.
Buyers should note some material considerations: the house is a solid-brick construction from c.1900–1929 and is assumed to lack wall insulation, which can affect running costs despite the new gas boiler. Council tax is described as expensive. The wider area is classified as “hampered aspiration” and local area data indicate higher deprivation levels; crime is average. These factors are relevant for buyers weighing long-term resale or rental prospects.
Overall this property suits families seeking substantial period character combined with modernised living spaces and generous outdoor area in the town centre. It offers immediate move-in condition with some ongoing considerations typical of older solid-brick homes.
