This Victorian end-terrace offers a straightforward entry into homeownership in Gorton, ideal for first-time buyers seeking value and location. The house is chain-free and freehold, with two reception rooms and two generous bedrooms across approximately 668 sq ft.
The property requires renovation: the kitchen is dated, walls are solid brick with assumed no cavity insulation, and overall modernization is needed. Double glazing and mains gas boiler are in place, but buyers should allow budget for cosmetic and energy-efficiency improvements.
Location is a primary strength—excellent transport links, local amenities, and several well-rated primary schools nearby. Crime levels are very low and there is no flood risk, though the neighbourhood sits within a very deprived area, which may affect long-term resale dynamics.
For investors this is a practical refurb project with rental potential; for first-time buyers it’s a chance to personalise a period home and benefit from low council tax and strong local demand.
