A spacious four-double-bedroom Edwardian semi offers generous family living across 1,770 sq ft in the heart of Northenden Village. High ceilings, bay windows with plantation shutters and period fireplaces give the house character and plenty of adaptable reception space — a formal lounge, separate dining room and a fitted kitchen with dining area. The large, enclosed rear garden and detached garage/workshop add practical outdoor space and scope for hobby or storage use.
The location suits families: Northenden Community School and other local primaries are within easy reach, and village shops, cafés and riverside walks are nearby. Off-street parking to the front and a side passage to the garden make day-to-day life straightforward. Heating is by mains gas boiler with radiators and the property benefits from uPVC double glazing.
Buyers should note a few material points: the home was built 1900–1929 with solid brick walls that appear to lack cavity insulation, and the double glazing was installed before 2002 — both are typical of the age but worth considering for future energy-efficiency upgrades. There is a single family bathroom plus a downstairs WC, which may feel tight for a four-bedroom household. The wider area shows relative deprivation indicators despite a generally low crime rate.
Overall this is a comfortable, characterful family home with immediate liveability and clear potential to improve energy performance and modern convenience. The detached garage/workshop and generous garden create options for extension, conversion or investment in comfort and resale value.
