Oldham: 'Unique development' upon open countryside listed

A former nursing home in Springhead was converted into seven "outstanding" properties which "went in a flash" when they were first listed a few years ago. Now, one of those is on the market.

The four-bed three-storey townhouse is equipped with a toilet on each floor, a stunning kitchen/diner that is not closed off to the living room, allowing the room to flow through.

The newly-renovated development has been listed at offers over £300,000 by property experts Alistair Stevens, a well-known local estate agency with branches in Royton and Chadderton.

Estate agent Elise Holt, of the companies sales and lettings team, told The Oldham Times that she anticipates for this listing to fly off the market.

She said: "It's on the market in Springhead which is a very popular location in Oldham, due to the open countryside.

"It's a unique development with a superb interior that used to be a former nursing home but has since been crafted into a beautiful home."

Explaining why she believes it is the property of the week in Oldham, Elise added: "It's on a quiet cul-de-sac in a popular location close to open countryside, with a superb interior - it really is a unique development."

Upon entrance, the front door opens into a hallway - helping keep the heat in the living room, which is located to the right of the hall and flows in part into the beautifully designed kitchen that boasts of a miniature island.

From the kitchen, which is kitted out with a range of modern high quality built in units, a door leads through to a utility room and then onto the ground floor toilet.

The backdoor can be found in the living room, and opens onto a neat patio area, while three allocated parking spaces can also be found outside.

The property, which benefits from the installation of central heating and double glazed windows, is freehold and is in the council tax band D.

On the first floor there are two generously sized bedrooms, one of them being the master which is equipped with an ensuite toilet and shower, while on the second floor there are another two large bedrooms with a view of Springhead and a family bathroom.

The home is situated in a quiet but a convenient residential area close to Lees centre yet with easy access to the countryside.

There are well regarded local schools and amenities nearby, and excellent public transport links.

Elise added: "To fully appreciate the quality and size on offer, an internal inspection is strongly recommended."
