A traditional three-bedroom 1930s semi-detached home on a quiet cul-de-sac in West Didsbury, offered chain-free and ready to move into. The house is compact (approximately 739 sq ft) and practical, with a through lounge/dining room, fitted kitchen, one bathroom and three bedrooms — a straightforward layout that suits a small family or first-time buyer.
Key everyday strengths include gas central heating, uPVC double glazing and a south-facing enclosed rear garden that brings good natural light. Off-street parking and a separate detached garage add useful storage and vehicle space. The location is strong for commuters and family life: close to Burton Road shops and restaurants, local schools (including an outstanding secondary nearby), riverside walks and good road and public-transport links to Manchester city centre and the airport.
Be clear about the limitations: the overall property and plot are small, internal rooms and ceiling heights are modest, and many finishes are dated — the dining room and some décor will benefit from updating. The cavity walls are recorded as having no insulation (assumed), which could mean higher heating bills until improved. The property sits in an area with higher deprivation indices; buyers should factor local market conditions into plans.
This home offers an affordable, low-maintenance entry into a popular family suburb with scope to personalise and add value through sympathetic updating and insulation improvements. For buyers prioritising location, garden and convenience over generous floor area, it represents a practical, well-located choice.
