This two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace on Rochdale Road offers character, practical living space and strong potential for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The stone façade and original features combine with modern comforts such as a fitted kitchen, gas central heating and a wood burner in the lounge to create a comfortable home on a modest footprint.
Accommodation includes a living room with a stove and chimney breast, a modern kitchen with built-in appliances, a useful cellar for storage and two double bedrooms. A boarded loft provides extra storage, and the south-facing rear garden brings morning and afternoon sun — a valuable outdoor space for the terrace setting. Unrestricted on-street parking is available and the property sits in easy reach of bus routes and nearby motorways and train stations.
Important practical facts: the house is a leasehold with 845 years remaining, council tax is very low and broadband speeds are fast. The building dates from before 1900 and the stone walls are assumed to have no insulation, which may affect heating efficiency. There is no flood risk recorded.
Be frank about local context: the wider area is very deprived with very high recorded crime rates and constrained rental/tenancy dynamics. Rooms are compact by modern standards and some buyers may want to upgrade insulation, windows or internal finishes over time. For a buyer seeking an affordable period home with scope to add value, this property is a straightforward, well-located opportunity.
