About this home
A traditional detached home set in an enviable position with far-reaching views towards Manchester and beyond. Offering easy access to local towns and villages, viewing comes highly recommended. EPC: D.
Offering over 2,000 sq. ft of versatile accommodation, this deceptive detached home occupies a generous plot and would prove an ideal choice for growing families seeking additional space both internally and externally.
Personal viewing will reveal a porch leading into a welcoming entrance hallway, with stairs providing access to both the cellar and first floor. The ground floor features a spacious lounge with a feature cast iron fireplace and open fire, a separate sitting room, and a formal dining room.
Accessed via an inner hallway with useful pantry just off, the farmhouse-style kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of matching units and features a gas-fired Aga, ceramic sink and original stone flooring. The kitchen leads through to a rear lobby providing access to the utility room, whilst the ground floor accommodation is completed by a modern three-piece shower room.
To the first floor are four generous double bedrooms, with the principal bedroom benefiting from a modern en-suite shower room. The accommodation is completed by a family bathroom comprising a pull-chain WC, wash hand basin, roll-top bath, and separate shower enclosure.
The cellar offers a versatile snug, ideal as an additional reception room, games room, or home office.
The property is warmed by a gas central heating system, whilst double-glazed windows further enhance comfort and energy efficiency. A large, part-boarded loft also provides useful additional storage.
Externally, the property occupies a mature plot of almost one-fifth of an acre. To the rear there is an enclosed garden with lawn and patio seating areas, enjoying uninterrupted views across the adjoining countryside and beyond.
Driveway parking is available to both sides of the property, providing space for up to four vehicles in total. One driveway leads to a detached garage (4.96m x 3.51m) with mains power.
Stockport Road is situated just off Oldham Road in the highly sought-after Lydgate district of Saddleworth. Ideally positioned for easy access to the surrounding Saddleworth villages and neighbouring townships, the property is also within easy reach of renowned countryside walks including Hartshead Pike, Pots and Pans, Dovestone Reservoir, and the Huddersfield Narrow Canal.
The nearby villages offer an excellent range of independent shops, cafés, pubs, and restaurants, together with a selection of highly regarded schools including Saddleworth School and Mossley Hollins High School.
