Turf Lane, Royton, Oldham, Greater Manchester, OL2

Listed 28 Sept 2026 · Oldham
A rare opportunity on a substantial extended plot in a popular Royton location. This three-bedroom detached home is a blank canvas, ready to become a buyer’s dream home. There is space to explore a significant extension while retaining a generous garden, and the additional rear land may offer further possibilities, including a separate dwelling, subject to planning permission and the necessary consents.
Set on a popular Royton address, this three-bedroom detached house offers a rare opportunity for a buyer with a vision. The current owners purchased an additional parcel of land beyond the original rear garden, creating a substantial plot that sets the property apart. Whether the aim is to modernise the existing house, create a much larger family home, or explore the possibilities of the rear land, there is plenty here to get excited about.
The house provides approximately 1,045 sq ft of accommodation, with two reception rooms, a kitchen/dining room and conservatory on the ground floor. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. A garage and off-street parking add to the practical appeal. The interiors present a blank canvas for someone keen to put their own stamp on every room.
Outside is where the opportunity really opens up. The extended rear plot offers room to consider a substantial extension while retaining a generous garden, subject to the necessary consents. Given its size, buyers may also wish to investigate whether a separate dwelling could be built on the rear land. No planning permission or development potential is implied or guaranteed, and buyers should make their own enquiries with the local planning authority and their legal adviser.
Royton is a well-established choice for families, with its town centre offering shops, cafés and everyday amenities. Local schooling includes Royton Hall Primary School and Ss Aidan and Oswald’s RC Primary School, while bus services through Royton provide connections towards Oldham and Manchester. Road links also make it convenient to travel around Greater Manchester.
For a buyer looking beyond the house as it stands today, 1 Turfland Avenue offers the freedom to plan a home around their own needs, on a plot with space that is increasingly hard to find. Viewing is essential to appreciate its scale and potential.
