This Is Exactly The Kind Of Home That Should Grab The Attention Of First-Time Buyers – a character terrace with a seriously impressive amount of living space, a big south-facing garden and one of Boothstown’s most convenient positions. Step inside and the house feels far bigger than expected. The front lounge is spacious, bright and full of personality, with stained-glass detailing and a feature fireplace giving it plenty of character. At the back is the real showpiece: a 22ft+ open-plan kitchen, dining and family room created by the rear extension. It is bright, sociable and made for real life, with glossy units, a breakfast bar, rooflight and direct access out to the garden. Upstairs, the master bedroom is a brilliant size, the second bedroom is a proper usable room, and the bathroom is modern, fresh and nicely finished. Outside, the south-facing rear garden is a huge bonus – long, private-feeling and low maintenance, with mature trees, planting, storage and gated access. Then there is the location. Central Boothstown is a massive part of the appeal. Shops, cafés, restaurants, schools and everyday amenities are all close by, while Worsley, the A580 and wider commuter links are within easy reach. For buyers wanting more than a standard two-bed terrace, this delivers space, character, garden and location in one package – and for a first purchase, that is a very strong combination.
