Summary - Shaftesbury Drive, Heywood, Greater Manchester, OL10 2PH OL10 2PH
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Generous plot, garage and good local schools — great for a family project.
Three bedrooms across two floors, approximately 866 sq ft
Set on a quiet Shaftesbury Drive street, this 1970s three-bedroom semi-detached house offers a clear renovation opportunity for a growing family. The property sits on a decent plot with a generous rear garden, detached garage and private driveway — useful for parking, storage or a future extension (subject to planning).
Inside, the layout provides a good-sized reception room, a well-proportioned kitchen and three bedrooms across two floors, totalling about 866 sq ft. The house has double glazing, cavity-filled walls and gas central heating via a boiler and radiators, so core fabric and services are broadly conventional for its era. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting modern home-working or streaming.
The home requires renovation throughout: visible plaster damage, dated wall coverings and some ceiling wear mean cosmetic and likely plastering work is needed. Buyers should plan for a comprehensive update to kitchens, bathrooms and finishes; the electrical and heating systems’ ages are unknown and may need assessment or upgrading. There is no flood risk and the surrounding area is an affluent, comfortable suburbia with several nearby Good-rated schools, sports and leisure amenities.
This property will suit a buyer looking to create a bespoke family home or an investor prepared to carry out a controlled refurbishment. The combination of plot size, parking and location gives practical scope to improve value, but factor renovation cost and programme into any offer.
