A practical and well-presented two-bedroom mid-terrace ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The house offers two reception rooms, a modern fitted kitchen and bathroom, and a converted loft accessed from the master — providing useful extra space for storage, a dressing area, or a home-office. Gas central heating and double glazing (installed post-2002) make the property comfortable and energy-efficient for its age.
The small, walled forecourt and a well-kept, sunny rear garden suit low-maintenance outdoor living and routine upkeep. At around 819 sq ft, the layout feels generous for a terraced home of this era, and the Victorian brick façade retains period character while internal rooms appear contemporary and neutral in finish.
Location is a key selling point: walking distance to the Trafford Centre, strong public transport links, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Local crime levels are very low and council tax is inexpensive, which both support affordable running costs. Nearby schools include several rated ‘Good’, making the area practical for young families.
Buyers should note the wider area is classified as deprived with blue-collar terraces and the local neighbourhood classed as hampered — factors that can affect long-term value growth. Walls are likely solid brick without cavity insulation, and the EPC rating is D, so further insulation or energy improvements could be beneficial. The plot is small and external amenity space is limited compared with suburban alternatives.
