Description

The Property
Set on a generous plot along Downshaw Road, this semi-detached family home offers space, versatility and a great location close to Daisy Nook Country Park. With a flexible layout and a large garden, it’s well-suited to busy households who want both room to grow and places to unwind.

Step inside through the entrance hall into a bright, dual-aspect kitchen/diner — a sociable hub of the home with plenty of room for cooking, eating and gathering together. The living room sits alongside, with patio doors leading directly into the conservatory. From here, further doors open onto the garden, creating a seamless flow between indoors and out.

Off the other side of the kitchen you’ll find an additional reception space currently used as a playroom, complete with patio doors to the rear and access to a handy ground floor W.C. This flexible room could also work well as a study, snug or hobby space depending on your needs.

Upstairs, three comfortable bedrooms provide space for family, guests or home working, all served by a family bathroom.

Externally, the property continues to impress. A driveway to the front provides off-road parking for several vehicles, while the rear garden offers both lawn and patio areas — perfect for relaxing, entertaining or letting children play.

Located close to Daisy Nook Country Park, you’ll have scenic walks and green space right on your doorstep, while still being within easy reach of Ashton-under-Lyne’s amenities, schools and transport links.

This is a home that balances indoor flexibility with outdoor space, making it a strong choice for anyone looking to put down roots in a well-connected, family-friendly area.

It has been verified by the seller(s), unless marked as 'draft'.
