Description

Dating back to the early 1900's this spectacular three bedroom semi-detached property is proudly welcomed to the market free of any onward chain. Having been lovingly maintained throughout the years this property presents a rare opportunity for the next homeowner to fulfil its potential and transform the home into a modern space.

Set back off Whalley Road, this home is within close proximity to local amenities, well-regarded schools such as St. Christopher’s secondary school and Peel Park primary school. Additionally, the property is situated nearby to transport links, including the M65 network and bus routes, as well as enjoyable walking routes around Higham Playing Fields and Clayton Woodlands.

Arriving at the home you are greeted by traditional-style iron gates which provide security to the property and lend access to the front garden and large driveway. The front garden is worthy of being described as a wonderland, as it features an array of greenery including a number of varieties of Victorian climbing roses that cover the front and is made private by the trees which surround it. The driveway is flagged for easy maintenance and allows ample space for parking.

Upon entry to the property you are welcomed into the entrance vestibule which is presented with traditional mosaic tiling and stained-glass windows. The entrance hall is large and lends access to all rooms on the ground floor. The living room is located to the front of the home and benefits from a bay window which floods the room with ample natural light. There is a superb feature fireplace which is constructed from marble as well as intricate wall and ceiling covings. Following on from the living room you enter the dining area which is spacious in size and boasts neutral décor throughout as well as impressive views of the rear garden through the bay window. The dining room also features unique artwork along its covings which adds a pop of colour to the room. The ground floor is complete with the kitchen which offers a blank canvas for the next homeowner to place their own stamp on the property. At present the kitchen is complete with ceiling-high traditional wooden wall cupboards and beige and teal units, intricate backsplash wall tiling and includes an integrated oven with gas hob and a laundry rack. The ground floor also benefits from a toilet under the stairs.

On the first floor of the property there are three bedrooms and a family bathroom with a separate toilet. The main bedroom and bedroom two are both large in size and offer ample space for furniture. Bedroom three is a single room which includes fitted carpet throughout and stunning stained-glass windows from which you can enjoy open-aspect views extending from the front garden. The family bathroom is presented with a two-piece suite which includes a bath with shower over-head and a sink. The bathroom showcases intricate blush tiling and boasts the added benefit of built in storage and water heater. The toilet is separate to the bathroom which is typical of a home constructed in this time.

Moving to the rear of the property there is a good-sized garden which, in the summer months, is bustling with wildlife thanks to many varieties of plants and shrubs. The garden benefits from both a flagged patio and a lawn area and is granted privacy from the shrubbery which surrounds it.

On a final note, although the property does require modernisation throughout, it is clear that the home holds undeniable potential which is waiting to be tapped into. It is well-proportioned in size, period features and incredible gardens create a starting point for the next owner to transform the property into a spectacular family home.
