3 bed detached house for sale

Weymouth Road, Ashton-Under-Lyne, Greater Manchester OL6

A beautifully presented 1920s, 3 to 4 bedroom detached property, benefiting from a wealth of original features. Set within a large, south-facing plot set back from the road, this double-fronted, architect-designed house offers versatile accommodation of over 200 square metres (2,225 square feet). It is an ideal choice for a family home.

The property has an EPC B rating.

The oak front door leads to a charming hallway with 3 reception rooms off, and bay windows to the front. To one side of the hall, the spacious lounge with limestone fireplace and multi-fuel burner opens into the dining area through an elegant arch. On the other side of the hallway, the large sitting room, similarly with fireplace and stove, could easily serve as a fourth double bedroom if required. An original parquet floor extends to much of the ground floor.

A modern breakfast kitchen provides a range of base and wall units, double oven, induction hob, extractor, microwave and dishwasher, finished with a stunning granite work surface. Two built-in cupboards and a larder unit provide extensive storage. A utility room with Belfast sink and a boiler room lead off.

The ground floor also has a large double bedroom with built-in wardrobes and views onto the side garden. Also downstairs there is a modern bathroom (with jacuzzi); a study; and a large gym/games/play room, currently housing a sauna; this could be used for a variety of purposes.

Stairs lead from both the hallway and kitchen to the first floor where there are a further 2 bedrooms. The master bedroom to the front is a large double bedroom, while the second has a built-in wardrobe with 2 separate rooms off providing storage and the potential for an en-suite bathroom, office or nursery. The main bathroom has a large, enclosed shower with a variety of functions.

There are 3 easy-access, boarded/insulated attics which provide extensive additional storage.

Externally the property has lovely gardens to all sides (the entire plots extends to 0.2 acres) planted with well-established fruit trees including apples, pears and plums. There are several raised beds used for growing vegetables and 2 greenhouses. The southerly aspect and distance from neighbouring properties means the gardens catch the sunlight throughout the day. In the rear garden there is a small ‘summer house’.

The paved courtyard and double garage/workshop with electric door to the rear of the property provide ample off-road parking.

The property benefits from solar panels which provide a regular, small income. The house has double glazing throughout.

Weymouth Road is located in a popular part of Ashton-under-Lyne on the edge of Greater Manchester and close to open countryside and outdoor activities. The beautiful area of Dove Stones reservoir and the popular village of Uppermill with its many interesting shops, restaurants and bars are but a short journey away. The location itself is close to a supermarket, shops and a Post Office facility. It is within easy walking distance of Tameside General Hospital and Stamford Park, and is well located for local schools/colleges, bus/tram/train transport links and the M60 motorway network.
