Confidence: MEDIUM

This four-bedroom detached house presents a fantastic opportunity for those looking to acquire a spacious family home in a sought-after location. Offered for the first time since its construction, the property boasts generous living spaces and stunning views of Lantern Pike and Kinder Scout. While the interior is dated and requires modernisation throughout, this presents a blank canvas for new owners to update and personalise the home according to their tastes. The well-maintained garden is a standout feature, offering ample outdoor space with direct access to the scenic Sett Valley Trail, perfect for families and gardening enthusiasts alike.

At an asking price of £595,000, this property is priced attractively at £270/sqf, notably below the local average of £303/sqf.

The renovation range of £40,000 to £120,000 allows for a flexible approach to updates, enhancing the overall appeal and value of the property. With its generous layout and desirable location, this house is well-positioned for those looking to invest in a project with significant potential.
