Set on a sizeable corner plot in Reddish, this two-bedroom semi-detached home offers a straightforward purchase for first-time buyers or small families seeking space and future potential. The ground floor flows from a bright lounge into an open-plan kitchen, while two double bedrooms and a three-piece bathroom occupy the first floor. The property benefits from fast broadband and reasonable transport links for commuting.
The long lease (933 years) removes common leasehold concerns, and the plot gives clear scope to add driveway parking or extend (subject to planning). Interior photos show clean, modern finishes in the living room and a well-lit layout throughout, so minimal cosmetic work may be needed for move-in.
Be realistic about the local context: the neighbourhood scores as very deprived and several nearby schools are rated as requiring improvement or inadequate. These factors may influence resale or rental demand. The house is average in overall size (approx. 651 sq ft) with one bathroom and typical post‑war room proportions.
This home suits buyers wanting an affordable, practical starter property with expansion potential rather than a turnkey investment in a high‑performing catchment. With a modest program of upgrades and targeted improvements, it could provide comfortable living now and added value later.
