Set on Green Lane in Chinley, this double-fronted Edwardian semi-detached house offers a characterful family home with genuine scope. High ceilings, original sash windows and a wide entrance hallway create an immediate sense of space and period charm. Two large reception rooms and four bedrooms already provide everyday family flexibility. The loft is large and easily accessible, ready to be converted into an additional bedroom and bathroom (subject to consents).
Outside, established gardens wrap around the house with lawn, a paved terrace, timber summer house and a sizeable timber workshop plus a stone outbuilding — useful for hobbies, storage or a home studio. A driveway provides off-street parking for two vehicles. The property sits close to Chinley Primary and other well-rated schools, with strong rail and road links to Manchester and Sheffield for commuting.
Practical considerations are presented plainly: the EPC is D and glazing is only part double; walls are assumed to be uninsulated cavity construction, so thermal improvements are likely to be needed. Some areas will benefit from updating and there are signs in parts of the fabric that warrant inspection for damp and general maintenance. The house is freehold, circa 1904, with a modest overall footprint (approximately 797 sq ft), so buyers should confirm room sizes and scope with a viewing.
This home will suit a family seeking period character and long-term potential, or buyers willing to invest in targeted improvements to unlock extra living space from the loft and modernise heating and insulation. Viewing is strongly advised to appreciate the proportions, grounds and conversion possibilities.
