53a Vernon Road is a compact Victorian semi-detached cottage offering two good-size bedrooms and two reception rooms across about 758 sq ft. The property has been with the same owner for nearly 40 years and was created when the original detached house was subdivided; it is accessed via a side path and has a small front area plus a decent rear garden. The layout is traditional—vestibule, living room, dining room, kitchen to the rear and stairs to two bedrooms and a bathroom—giving straightforward scope for updating and reconfiguration.
This house is sold freehold and presents a clear renovation project: cosmetic and structural upgrades will be needed to modernise services, interiors and the overgrown garden. There is real potential to add value by opening the back of the ground floor (patio doors or single-storey extension) or refreshing finishes throughout. No flooding risk is recorded and broadband speeds are fast; mobile signal is average.
Location is practical for commuters and families: Bredbury station is about half a mile, Romiley village around 1.2 miles, and road links include the M60. Several good-rated primary schools are nearby; a mix of local amenities — buses, shops, pubs and green spaces — are within walking distance. Be aware the wider area scores as very deprived, which may affect long-term demand and resale timing.
For a first-time buyer or investor prepared to renovate, this period home offers character, a useful garden and clear development upside. The price reflects its condition and the area profile; buyers should budget for refurbishment and verify EPC, services and council-tax details during due diligence.
