A handsome Victorian end-of-terrace cottage set on a large corner plot, this three-bedroom home combines original character with a modern, move-in-ready interior. The property has been newly renovated throughout and benefits from two bathrooms, oak flooring, york stone finishes, and three working open fireplaces — a rare mix of period detail and contemporary fittings. The driveway fits four cars and the wrap-around, private garden offers scope to extend (STPP).
Practical strengths include a gas boiler under five years old, double glazing throughout, a brick outbuilding for storage and excellent mobile and broadband coverage — useful for commuters and home workers. The house sits at the end of a quiet private road with open green views nearby and easy access to scenic Peak Forest Canal walks. Two nearby stations provide direct trains to Manchester under 30 minutes.
Notable considerations: the house’s solid brick construction is presumed to have no cavity insulation, which may affect running costs and future upgrade priorities. The double glazing was installed before 2002 so windows may not match current high-efficiency standards. The wider neighbourhood records higher levels of deprivation; buyers should check local services and suitability. Any extension plans require planning permission (STPP) — no approvals are in place.
Well-suited to families, first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors seeking a characterful home with expansion potential, this property offers immediate comfort and sensible long-term upside thanks to plot size and parking. Viewing is recommended to appreciate room proportions, original features and the private outdoor space.
