Two double bedrooms, ready to move in
South-facing rear garden, good daytime sun
Freehold with mains gas boiler and radiators
Newly renovated interior; modern, neutral presentation
EPC rating D — energy efficiency below modern standards
Cavity walls assumed uninsulated — potential higher heating costs

Very low local crime; area economically deprived
This newly renovated two-bedroom mid-terrace offers a straightforward, affordable step onto the property ladder in Oldham. Rooms are smartly presented and the layout includes a porch, lounge, kitchen/diner, two double bedrooms and a bathroom — ready to move into with little immediate work required.
Outside, the rear garden faces south and enjoys sunshine through much of the day; there is also a small lawned front garden. The house is freehold and benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing and fast broadband — practical features for everyday family life or home working.
Practical considerations to note: the EPC is band D and the original cavity wall construction is assumed to have no added insulation, which can mean higher heating costs than a fully upgraded property. The plot is small and the wider area shows higher levels of deprivation, though the immediate neighbourhood reports very low crime levels.
Location is a key strength: the property sits close to Oldham town centre with shops, cafes and a cinema a short drive away, and has quick access to the M60/M62. Several well-rated primary and secondary schools are nearby, and Royal Oldham Hospital is within easy reach — useful for commuters and families.
For a first-time buyer looking for a well-presented, low-maintenance starter home with good transport links and outdoor space, this house combines sensible running costs (very low council tax) with the potential to improve energy performance over time.
