Summary - 38, Oakley Drive OL1 4TR
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Chain-free, ready-for-family living with garage and driveway for three cars.
Detached three-bedroom family home with private garden and patio
This detached three-bedroom home on Oakley Drive offers straightforward family living in a popular residential pocket of Oldham. The ground floor centres on an open-plan kitchen and dining room with patio doors onto a private rear garden, plus a separate lounge to the front for quieter family time. A useful downstairs WC and detached garage add everyday convenience.
Upstairs the main bedroom includes a private dressing room / walk-in wardrobe; two further bedrooms and a modern family bathroom complete the accommodation. The house is double-glazed, gas‑heated with an EPC rating of C, and sits on a small but private plot with a lawn and patio. A wide driveway provides off‑road parking for up to three cars.
Practical buyers will value the freehold, chain‑free sale and the property’s recent construction (2003–2006) which keeps running costs reasonable. The layout is well suited to young families or investors seeking a rental-ready house with modest updating — neutral decor and carpeting mean little immediate work is required, though cosmetic refurbishment could add value.
Be aware of two local factors: the plot is on the smaller side for a detached home, and the wider area has pockets of deprivation. Several nearby secondary schools have mixed Ofsted outcomes, so buyers with older children should check catchment options. Council tax is moderate and broadband speeds are fast, making the home practical for modern family life and commuting.
