This extended three-bedroom semi-detached home on Seddon Avenue offers a practical, affordable entry into Gorton. Chain-free and with a very long lease (909 years) plus a nominal ground rent of £4, it suits first-time buyers and investors seeking low holding costs and easy access to transport and local schools.
The ground floor provides a bright living/dining room that opens to a flagged, low-maintenance rear garden and an extended kitchen ideal for everyday family living. Upstairs are two double bedrooms, a small third bedroom/box room and a fully tiled family bathroom. The property totals around 718 sq ft — modest but usable, especially for those prioritising location over space.
The house is dated and will benefit from modernization: patterned glass doors and older fittings are present, and the internal decor and finishes need updating. Cavity walls are as built with no known insulation (assumed), so upgrading thermal performance could be a sensible early investment.
Location is a key strength: excellent transport links, nearby amenities and several good or outstanding schools within easy reach. The wider area shows signs of deprivation, which may influence resale timing and local services, but the immediate street reports very low crime and strong connectivity.
