Compact Edwardian two-bedroom terrace close to Chorlton amenities and Metrolink.
Freehold mid-terrace Edwardian character house
This compact two-double-bedroom Edwardian terrace on a quiet Chorlton cul-de-sac is well placed for first-time buyers seeking immediate move-in comfort and strong local connections. The house presents period character — exposed brick feature wall, high ceilings, partial stripped floorboards and ceiling coving — combined with modern fitted kitchen and gas central heating. The rear paved courtyard provides private outdoor space and a gate to the communal service alley.
At about 581 sq ft the layout is efficient but small, with two bedrooms and a single, large three-piece bathroom on the first floor. The property is freehold and sits in a low-crime area with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for remote working — and direct Metrolink access into the city, MediaCity and the airport. Local shops, bars, restaurants, parks and strong primary schools are all within easy walking distance.
Practical drawbacks are straightforward: compact internal floor area, limited outdoor space (paved courtyard rather than a garden), and cavity walls assumed to have no insulation which could affect running costs and comfort in colder months. There’s only one bathroom and no off-street parking. Buyers should factor potential improvement costs for insulation or further modernisation if desired.
For a first-time buyer looking to be in Chorlton’s sought-after community, this house offers a blend of period charm, low running friction and a convenient location. It suits buyers wanting a manageable, characterful home with clear scope to add value through targeted improvements.
