Summary - 57, Stratton Drive, Platt Bridge WN2 5HR
2 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Spacious 2‑bed semi with double garage, driveway parking and modern ground floor..
Corner plot with large front garden and extra outdoor space
Set on a generous corner plot in Platt Bridge, this semi‑detached two-bedroom home combines roomy parking, a detached double garage and a low‑maintenance courtyard garden — practical space for a small family or buy‑to‑let investor. The ground floor has been stylishly updated with a contemporary living room, open-plan kitchen/diner with built-in appliances and a bright conservatory that extends usable living space. The property benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and a very long lease (950 years) with a nominal ground rent (£12 p.a.).
Upstairs offers two double bedrooms, including a roomy main bedroom with fitted wardrobes and an en‑suite shower pod, plus a separate family bathroom. The first floor presents a clear opportunity to personalise and modernise to your taste — the footprint is generous and ready for cosmetic updating rather than major structural work. The home is suitable for families, professionals commuting from the nearby Ince station, or investors seeking a straightforward rental proposition.
Practical considerations are stated plainly: the property is leasehold (950 years remaining) and sits in an area with higher deprivation metrics, though local crime is very low and broadband/mobile coverage is strong. The original cavity walls likely lack insulation, so buyers should factor potential energy‑efficiency improvements into budgets. Overall, this is a spacious, well‑presented 1960s semi with useful parking/garage space and scope to add value through modest first‑floor modernisation.
