Description

A spacious, extended detached family home with three double bedrooms, modern amenities, a private garden, and off-road parking, ideally located on the popular Copthorne Park estate near Oldham town centre. EPC - C

Ryder & Dutton are pleased to present this deceptively spacious detached family home, which has been thoughtfully extended to provide impressive living accommodation. Offered for sale with no onward chain, it represents an excellent opportunity for family buyers.

The ground floor features an entrance porch, hallway, a comfortable lounge, dining area, and a separate sitting room with bi-fold doors leading out to the rear garden. It also includes a well-appointed kitchen, utility room, a versatile office that could double as a laundry room, and a downstairs WC. On the first floor, there are three spacious double bedrooms, including a master with an en suite shower room, as well as a contemporary family shower room.

Outside, the property benefits from a double driveway to the front, providing off-road parking. To the rear, there is a lawned garden—ideal for relaxing, entertaining, or for children to enjoy.

Howgill Crescent is located on the sought-after Copthorne Park estate, a well-established modern development just a short drive from Oldham town centre. The area offers a wide range of amenities including shops, parks, schools, and colleges. It is also well connected, with reliable bus services, access to the Metrolink tram network, and convenient links to the M60 motorway for travel further afield.

Viewing highly recommended.
