A practical three-bedroom mid-terrace arranged over three floors, this townhouse suits families or first-time buyers seeking space, parking and good transport links. The living room is bright and generously proportioned for a property of this size, and the separate kitchen offers dining space with direct access to a private rear garden. A useful loft room with Velux windows adds flexible accommodation for a home office, hobby space or occasional guest use.
The home includes two off-street parking spaces — a private driveway to the front and an allocated spot to the rear — a rare convenience in this area. Built in the 1980s with double glazing fitted after 2002 and mains gas heating to radiators, the property is functional and low-maintenance for everyday family life. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting working from home and streaming.
Practical details to note: the property is leasehold (long lease remaining: 945 years) and sits in an area classified as deprived, which may affect long-term value growth compared with nearby higher-demand suburbs. Accommodation is average-sized overall (883 sq ft) with a single family bathroom, so buyers wanting larger rooms or additional bathrooms should factor potential remodelling into their plans. Council Tax is very cheap and local crime levels are very low.
Positioned in a residential neighbourhood with good schools, nearby parks and regular public transport into Oldham and Manchester, this townhouse offers convenient everyday living with scope to personalise. It will appeal most to families and first-time buyers who prioritise space, parking and straightforward commuting rather than high-end period character.
