An attractive four-bedroom Edwardian semi with classic bay windows and high ceilings, arranged over two main floors plus useful chamber cellars. The ground floor offers a bay-front lounge with a log burner and an open-plan modern kitchen/dining room that opens to a private, lawned rear garden — an easy family layout for everyday living and entertaining.
Practical features include a driveway for off-street parking, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing, and a long lease (circa 807 years) with a nominal ground rent. The cellar level provides a utility room, storage and an unusual added bonus — a sauna — which could be retained as a lifestyle feature or converted to further useful space.
Located on a tree-lined residential road with excellent transport links (Metrolink within walking distance) and a strong local school offer, the house suits families who want period character close to Manchester city centre. Note this is a leasehold property in an area with relative deprivation indicators; the house dates from before 1900 so ongoing maintenance and sympathetic updating may be required.
A practical purchaser should budget for typical period-house works: possible wall insulation upgrades (cavity walls noted as built without insulation), and general period maintenance to retain character features. With scope to modernise further, this property offers immediate liveability and clear potential to increase value with targeted improvements.
