Large two-bedroom period home with huge garden and renovation potential.
Victorian stone end-terrace with generous room proportions
A spacious two-bedroom Victorian end-terrace offered chain free and set within walking distance of Glossop town centre and Manor Park. The house retains period stone character and generous room proportions, including a large kitchen/family room, cellar storage and a master bedroom with useful airing cupboard. The second bedroom benefits from an en-suite, and the family bathroom has a modern three-piece suite.
The standout external asset is an unusually large, enclosed rear garden with a raised patio — excellent for families, entertaining and gardening. The front garden is pebbled and could potentially be adapted to provide off-road parking, subject to planning permission. Broadband and mobile signal are reported good, and the property sits conveniently for local shops, schools and direct rail links to Manchester.
Practical drawbacks are material and should be considered by buyers. The house needs renovation and some redecoration throughout; heating currently includes room heaters and mains gas with no confirmed modern central heating system. Walls are likely uninsulated (original stone construction) and window install dates are unknown despite double glazing. The area shows signs of deprivation and recorded very high crime rates, which may affect insurance and security costs.
This property will suit buyers seeking a character home with significant improvement potential: families who want generous outdoor space, first-time buyers able to renovate, or investors targeting value-add refurbishment. Because of the work required and local indicators, viewings are recommended for parties prepared to carry out upgrades and factor in ongoing running and security considerations.
