This traditional red-brick end-terrace on Manchester Road offers an affordable entry into Bury with practical, compact living across two floors. The house provides two reception rooms, three bedrooms and a single bathroom, arranged over approximately 783 sq ft—suitable for first-time buyers or investors seeking rental potential.
The property benefits from long lease security (879 years remaining) and a nominal ground rent (£2). It sits on a prominent pavement corner with good street frontage, enclosed rear yard and nearby transport links for easy commuting to Bury, Whitefield and Unsworth. Local schools are largely rated Good, and amenities are close by.
Interiors are characteristic of a Victorian terrace: original brickwork and high hallway ceilings give period charm, but rooms are generally small and the décor is dated. The house will reward buyers prepared to modernise and personalise; upgrades could improve living flow and value. Viewings are recommended to appreciate layout and scope.
