Chain-free home close to schools and transport links for practical family living.
Three bedrooms and family bathroom over two floors
This three-bedroom semi-detached home on Flapper Fold Lane offers a practical family layout close to local schools, shops and frequent bus routes. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom; downstairs features a separate lounge, dining room and kitchen that open onto a garden and driveway parking. The property is chain-free and sits on a long remainder lease with a nominal ground rent, making it straightforward to purchase.
The house dates from the mid-20th century and benefits from double glazing and gas central heating via a boiler and radiators. The footprint is compact at about 711 sq ft, so it will suit families needing sensible, well-located accommodation rather than large living spaces. Excellent mobile signal and fast broadband support home working and streaming.
Buyers should note material facts: tenure is leasehold (long lease remaining, ground rent £3) and the property is in a very deprived local area which may affect resale for some purchasers. The cavity walls are assumed to have no insulation and some installation dates (glazing, services) are unknown, so there may be short-term maintenance or energy-improvement work needed. Council tax is low and transport links are strong, which helps running costs and daily commute times.
Overall, this is a practical, affordable family home in a convenient Atherton location. It suits buyers seeking a ready-to-live-in house with potential to modernise energy efficiency and cosmetic finishes over time, or investors looking for an accessible mid-market let in a town-centre fringe setting.
