This remarkable detached period residence, situated on the picturesque border of Oldham and Mossley, offers a unique canvas for renovation enthusiasts and investors alike. With roots that trace back over 400 years, this property boasts an impressive history, historically associated with King James I during his hunting excursions. The home features an expansive layout exceeding 2,100 square feet across three floors, allowing for significant potential to personalize or enhance existing spaces.
Upon entering, the porch leads into a grand entrance hall characterized by exposed stone walls. The spacious lounge is adorned with charming multi-aspect mullion windows and an inviting wood-burning stove. A substantial kitchen/breakfast/dining area is currently well-equipped but presents opportunities for modern upgrades or reconfiguration to maximize functionality for family gatherings or entertaining guests. Bi-fold doors seamlessly connect the indoor space with an outdoor composite decked area that affords breathtaking countryside views.
The first-floor houses three generously sized double bedrooms, including a principal suite featuring an exquisite open en-suite bathroom complete with twin sinks and a roll-top bath. The lower ground floor offers versatility—ideal for transformation into leisure spaces or additional living areas, such as a gym or cinema room.
Outside, the sizeable plot features ample off-road parking and beautifully landscaped gardens that include mature fruit trees and supportive infrastructure such as an outbuilding/workshop equipped with mains power—ripe for conversion into ideal work-from-home spaces (subject to planning permissions).
Situated conveniently between Lees, Mossley, and Grotton with access to reputable schools and transport links to Manchester, this property represents both a lifestyle choice and an investment opportunity in a sought-after area.
