The property An immaculate two bedroomed Victorian house set in one of Hyde's most sought-after roads, close to all amenities and within excellent school catchments. We understand that this house was originally built around the turn of the century and was the home of the local greengrocer. In recent years, it has undergone a programme of modernisation and improvements, within which the eye for detail is exquisite – from the flooring to the new kitchen and bathroom; the light painted walls throughout adding a sense of contemporary living whilst nods to the past with the installation of vintage style radiators.

A bright entrance hall leads through to the sitting room/dining room, which has been opened up into one large space, whilst keeping the integrity of the original two rooms courtesy of a wide opening in which doors could be installed should this be required. The sitting room area has a chimney breast with the ability for the installation of a woodburning stove; and within the dining area, there is a useful understairs cupboard which has plumbing for a cloakroom should anyone wish to install one in the future. There is engineered oak flooring running seamlessly through the hallway, sitting room and dining area, adding to the feeling of space and light for which this property has a clear ethos.
