This extended end-of-terrace offers spacious family living across three reception rooms and five bedrooms, recently improved and well presented throughout. The open-plan kitchen and separate utility deliver practical daily living while the bay-fronted living room and additional ground-floor office/sitting room give flexible space for home working or play.
Outside, the property benefits from front and rear gardens, detached garage and private off-road parking — a rare combination for a terraced house. Its location close to Smithybridge station and Hollingworth Lake makes commuting and weekend countryside access straightforward, with good local schools and low local crime adding to family appeal.
Practical points to note: the house is modest in overall footprint for five bedrooms (total c. 1,394 sq ft) and was constructed in the late 1960s/early 1970s with cavity walls that are assumed to lack insulation. Double glazing is installed (pre-2002), gas central heating is to radiators, and the property is offered freehold with affordable council tax. These factors mean further energy-efficiency improvements could be considered.
Overall this is a well-presented, move-in-ready extended family home with clear potential for modest upgrading to improve thermal performance and running costs. It suits buyers prioritising space, location and immediate usability over a newly built specification.
