Whalley Grove, Ashton-Under-Lyne

Welcome to Whalley Grove - and what an opportunity this is! Having been cherished by the same family for almost 50 years, this substantial five bedroom detached home is now ready for a new chapter. Homes of this size, on plots like this, rarely come to the market, particularly in such a well regarded position with open fields to the side and uninterrupted views towards Hartshead Pike.

For growing families looking to put down long term roots, the potential here is incredibly exciting. Whilst the property would benefit from modernisation, the foundations are already in place for somebody to create a truly outstanding forever home in one of the area’s most desirable locations.

Step inside and you are welcomed by a spacious entrance hallway which immediately gives a sense of the scale on offer. To the right sits the formal lounge, a generous reception room with a bay window overlooking the front aspect. Across the hallway, the dining room provides the perfect setting for family meals and entertaining, with an archway opening through to a second sitting room/sunroom where sliding patio doors lead directly out onto the garden.

The kitchen sits to the rear of the property and offers plenty of storage, ample worktop space and a breakfast bar ideal for busy family mornings. A rear porch, utility room and downstairs WC complete the ground floor accommodation.

Upstairs, the sense of space continues. There are four well proportioned double bedrooms alongside a generous fifth bedroom, making this an ideal home for larger families or anybody needing flexible working space. The modern family bathroom is particularly spacious, whilst the principal bedroom enjoys dual aspect windows framing beautiful open views across the neighbouring fields and towards Hartshead Pike.

Externally, this home truly comes into its own. The West facing rear garden enjoys sunshine well into the evening during the summer months, whilst the substantial side garden offers a rare additional outdoor space perfect for children to play, entertaining, or even future landscaping ambitions. A driveway and garage complete the package.

The location is another major part of the appeal. The Hartshead estate remains one of Ashton's most sought after residential areas thanks to its semi-rural feel whilst still being incredibly convenient for day to day family life. Excellent local schooling is close by including St Damian’s, whilst nearby Ashton and Stalybridge offer a wide range of supermarkets, independent shops, cafes, bars and leisure facilities.

For anybody who enjoys the outdoors, you are perfectly placed for scenic walks around Hartshead Pike, surrounding countryside routes and nearby open green spaces, all quite literally on your doorstep. Commuters are also well catered for with straightforward access towards Manchester, the M60 motorway network and rail links from nearby Stalybridge railway station and Ashton-under-Lyne railway station.

Properties offering this combination of size, location, views and potential are exceptionally hard to come by - especially in such close proximity to St Damian’s. For the right buyer, this is the kind of home that could comfortably serve a family for decades to come.
