This attractive two-bedroom mid-terrace cottage on Broad Oak Lane combines period character with practical modern updates. High ceilings, exposed beams and a feature fireplace create a welcoming main reception, while a contemporary fitted kitchen and updated shower room provide everyday convenience. A clever mezzanine in the second bedroom adds versatile space for storage or a sleeping nook.
Externally the property benefits from a low-maintenance enclosed rear yard and a garage to the rear, plus a traditional front garden. On-street parking is available. The home is compact but efficiently arranged across approximately 851 sq ft and sits in a well-served area with good transport links and nearby schools.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold, has an EPC rating of D, and was built before 1900 with original granite or whinstone walls (likely uninsulated). Double glazing and mains gas central heating are fitted, but the solid-wall construction may mean higher heating costs and potential improvement works to improve efficiency.
Priced at £155,000 this cottage will suit first-time buyers seeking character with ready-to-use living spaces, or buy-to-let investors attracted to the location and low council tax band A. Buyers wanting a very energy-efficient home should factor in potential retrofit works; otherwise this is a charming, comfortable home in a convenient Bury location.
