Listed 13 Oct 2026 · Oldham
No chain. A unique detached property formed of two previously individual dwellings. Offering excellent potential, viewing comes highly recommended. EPC: D.
Constructed in 1788, this impressive character home enjoys stunning panoramic views to the front and offers over 2,000 sq. ft of accommodation in total. Although requiring a programme of upgrading, the property presents a fantastic opportunity for a variety of buyers, including families or those seeking versatile multi-generational living.
Originally comprising two separate dwellings, 15 and 17 Lower Turf Lane, the property is currently arranged as one detached home, whilst retaining much of its original layout with two staircases and separate accommodation to the first floor.
Personal viewing will reveal two entrance porches. One leads through to a large reception hall, sitting room and smaller kitchen, which could be converted to provide a useful utility room or home office. The kitchen also provides access to a lean-to at the side.
A hallway features a guest WC and one of the two staircases leading to the first floor. The hallway and second porch provide access to a large lounge, which houses the second staircase. A further doorway leads through to the larger kitchen/diner and useful conservatory at the rear.
The first floor remains divided between the two original properties, with both halves benefiting from two double bedrooms and a bath/shower room, providing a total of four bedrooms and two bathrooms.
Warmed by a gas central heating system, the property also benefits from double-glazed windows.
Externally, the property is set behind a wall to the front, whilst to the rear there is a full-width garden featuring both lawn and patio seating areas, together with a feature pond. There is also a detached garage to the side measuring 4.16m x 2.93m.
Lower Turf Lane is situated just off Huddersfield Road, conveniently positioned for a range of local amenities and a number of popular schools, including Saddleworth High School in Diggle.
The neighbouring Saddleworth villages are all within easy reach, offering a varied range of independent shops, cafés, bars and restaurants, whilst fabulous countryside walks are available close by.
The property's existing layout and generous proportions provide an excellent opportunity for those seeking a home with genuine versatility and scope to create accommodation to suit individual requirements.
