The Old Forge, 155b Liverpool Road, Cadishead, Manchester, M44

Hidden privately just off Liverpool Road, The Old Forge is where history meets contemporary design. Once
the village blacksmith’s workshop, it has been re-imagined as a high-spec detached home — secluded,
spacious and filled with natural light. Behind its reclaimed brick façade lies a new-build-standard interior with
underfloor heating, premium insulation and flawless detailing throughout. Step through the door and the
home reveals its story: a perfect balance between traditional soul and modern simplicity. Herringbone
flooring flows through open spaces; twin sets of doors flood the kitchen and living areas with sunlight. Every
corner reflects craftsmanship — the black wall panelling, the soft sage kitchen, the precise joinery — all
finished with quiet confidence. Whether hosting friends around the kitchen island or opening the garden
doors on a summer evening, this house feels calm, private and complete. Upstairs, the vaulted master suite
brings boutique-hotel comfort home, while two additional double bedrooms and a sleek family bathroom
make the space work effortlessly for modern living. Accessed by a private access way, The Old Forge sits
quietly away from traffic yet moments from everything — local shops, schools and Irlam train station. The
property enjoys land that fully surrounds the home, creating an exceptionally private setting where the
garden and boundaries are entirely screened by mature trees and hedging. A private driveway with ample
parking for a number of vehicles completes the sense of space and exclusivity, offering a rare mix of
convenience, security and peace. Few homes carry history so gracefully. Fewer still combine it with this level
of finish and privacy. The Old Forge is not just a house — it’s a statement of design and seclusion, hidden in
plain sight in the heart of Cadishead.
