An attractively located three-bedroom mid-terrace with an attic conversion, offered at a competitive price for first-time buyers or investors. The house sits close to Newhey centre with excellent transport links to the M62 and nearby tram station, and benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and an enclosed rear garden. At roughly 857 sq ft, the layout provides a generous lounge, fitted kitchen, family bathroom and a loft room currently used as an office/third bedroom.
This Victorian terrace has genuine value for buyers seeking an affordable entry into the area or a straightforward rental property. Practical positives include fast broadband, very low crime, nearby good primary and secondary schools, and easy commuter access to Manchester and Leeds. On-street parking is available to the front and the rear garden offers outdoor space uncommon at this price point.
Buyers should note some material points: the building predates 1900 with sandstone/limestone walls that are assumed to lack cavity insulation, and the double glazing dates from before 2002. Tenure is unknown and should be confirmed. The property is in a generally deprived local area, which may affect long-term value and lettings for certain tenant profiles.
Overall this mid-terraced home suits a first-time purchaser wanting affordable accommodation near transport links, or an investor seeking a rental with immediate let potential. It will reward modest updating and insulation improvements to enhance comfort and running costs.
