A deceptively spacious two-bedroom Victorian end-terrace offered chain-free and with a long lease (approximately 857 years remaining). The house has two reception rooms, a separate kitchen, and a handy ground-floor WC, giving flexible layout options for a first-time buyer or investor. The large front bedroom was previously divided and can be returned to create a three-bedroom home if extra space is needed.
The property is double-glazed with gas central heating from a boiler and radiators, and benefits from a low-maintenance enclosed rear garden. Derker Metrolink tram stop is within walking distance, with frequent services into Oldham and Manchester, and local amenities including shops, pubs and schools are close by. Council Tax is low (Band A), and crime levels are recorded as very low.
Important drawbacks are realistic: the EPC rating is D and the house may benefit from energy-efficiency improvements. The immediate area scores as very deprived, which could influence resale timing and tenant demand, though the location still offers clear transport and amenity convenience. The property is leasehold with a long remaining term and is offered at an accessible price point for entry buyers or buy-to-let investors.
