Located on the ever popular Cross Lane, just a short stroll into Marple town centre, this great value three-bedroom home offers generous room sizes, a private garden and exciting potential to update and add value over time.

It's in good shape and ready to move straight into as is but offers an exciting opportunity to refurbish for first-time buyers, families or anyone looking to create a home tailored to their own style.

Better still, there's no seller chain so you could be in as fast as the legal work can be done.

The accommodation briefly comprises:


  • Ground floor: Living room, kitchen diner, understairs storage and hallway
  • First floor: Three bedrooms and bathroom


The property is an ex-police house offering generously sized rooms on a decent plot and scope to improve, modernise and ultimately add value. We've used CGI to demonstrate how the kitchen and single bedroom might look with some basic cosmetic updates.

As it is now, the living room is a lovely bright space with dual aspect windows to front and rear plus a fireplace housing electric fire. The kitchen is a decent size with space for dining table and fitted with a gas hob, single oven and space for both a washing machine and dishwasher.

Upstairs, there are two comfortable double bedrooms with in-built storage to both - it may be possible to utilise this storage space to create an ensuite in one of the bedrooms. The single bedroom is a good size working well as a child's room or home office. There's a modern white suite in the bathroom with a power shower.

Outside, the rear garden has a paved seating area directly outside the house leading up to the lawned area. To the front, there's a lawn and path running up to and alongside the house but its entirely feasible, subject to planning, to alter the front garden and create off-road parking.

Positioned next to the local nursery and within easy reach of Marple's excellent range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, highly regarded schools and transport links into Manchester, this represents outstanding value in today's market.
