Character-filled three-bedroom cottage with parking and countryside views, ideal for refurbishing.
Three double-size bedrooms, very large main with walk-in wardrobe
A substantial Victorian semi-detached cottage dating to around 1850, this three-bedroom freehold home combines authentic period character with generous room sizes. Natural stone elevations, stone-surround windows and exposed eaves give strong kerb appeal, while a very large main bedroom with walk-in wardrobe and a spacious lounge provide flexible family accommodation. The property sits on Wall Hill Road with attractive countryside views and convenient access to local villages, shops and transport links to Oldham and Manchester.
Practical features include off-street parking, a paved front patio and a large side store room currently housing the boiler — a space with genuine potential to be converted into an extra reception room, utility or playroom. The layout and overall footprint (about 1,735 sq ft) suit buyers who want room to grow or to reconfigure living space to modern family needs.
Buyers should note the house requires updating: fixtures and finishes need modernisation, the walls are likely uninsulated sandstone, and there are signs the property may need attention for damp in places. The EPC is D and broadband speeds are very slow, which will affect streaming and home working without upgrades. Council Tax Band E reflects above-average local charges.
This is a good opportunity for a family or purchaser seeking a character home with development potential. Viewings will suit those prepared to invest time and budget into refurbishment to unlock the property’s space, views and period charm.
