Edwardian charm with modern kitchen, large rear garden and good transport links.
Bay-fronted living room with high ceilings and wood-burning stove
This two-bedroom period terrace on Firwood Avenue combines Edwardian character with recent modern upgrades, making it a strong option for first-time buyers. The bay-fronted living room with high ceilings and a wood-burning stove gives immediate period charm, while a contemporary kitchen and four-piece bathroom add comfortable, move-in-ready convenience.
The property sits on a small plot but benefits from a mature, larger-than-average rear garden with patio — rare for terraces in the area and excellent for entertaining or future landscaping. Practical features include gas central heating, fully double glazed windows (install date unknown) and a boarded loft with a pull-down ladder, offering generous storage and conversion potential subject to planning (STPP).
Be aware of a few material points: the cavity walls are recorded as built without insulation (assumed), which may mean loft or wall insulating work could be beneficial to reduce running costs. The loft is boarded but any conversion would need planning checks. The compact plot and mid-terrace position limit external expansion options.
Located close to Urmston Metrolink, the train station and plentiful local amenities, the home sits in an affluent, family-oriented neighbourhood with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Nearby primary and secondary schools include several rated Good or Outstanding, supporting family needs and future resale appeal.
