Summary - 196 BARTON ROAD STRETFORD MANCHESTER M32 8DP
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Comfortable, updated home with garden, garage and excellent transport links.
Victorian mid-terrace with original character features
This Victorian mid-terrace blends period character with practical, move-in-ready updates — a comfortable two-bedroom base near Stretford’s shops, parks and Metrolink. High ceilings, a feature log burner and original details give the reception rooms warmth and charm, while a modern bathroom and updated kitchen make everyday life straightforward.
Practical improvements include a new boiler installed in 2024, electrical work within the last ten years, and substantial roof and loft works completed in 2022 (re-felted, re-battened, insulation added). A two-chamber cellar offers useful storage or potential conversion subject to investigation. The rear courtyard leads through a gated entrance to a private garden (approx. 16 x 4m), plus off-road parking and a detached garage — a rare combination for a central terraced property.
Important facts for buyers: the property is solid brick Victorian construction and walls are assumed to have no built-in insulation; the EPC is D. Rooms are small-to-medium in scale, so the layout will suit buyers who prioritise location and character over expansive internal living space. The area is urban with a mixed community and pockets of deprivation; excellent transport links and nearby schools make it particularly appealing to families and investor buyers seeking rental demand.
Overall this freehold terrace offers a strong package of character, convenience and sensible recent maintenance, with scope to add value through internal modernisation and insulation improvements. Buyers should budget for energy-efficiency upgrades if minimising running costs is a priority.
