We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Set on a large, highly private plot this attractive detached bungalow offers a superb home for a growing family in ever popular Grotton. EPC: D.
A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial detached true bungalow set in a large mature garden plot extending to just under one acre off Thornley Lane, accessed via two stone pillars onto a private driveway accessed via only 1 other property.
The bungalow has been subject to a comprehensive programme of improvement both internally and externally including refurbished interior and rendered elevations to create a stylish family home with beautifully presented gardens and therefore viewing is a must.
Comprising entrance hallway, guests wc/utility, open plan living area with newly fitted contemporary kitchen featuring a central island with Samsung electric oven, microwave and induction hob.
The living area features a multifuel stove and large bay window with views over the garden.
There are four bedrooms, the master having fitted wardrobes and bedroom 4 features a new ensuite shower room.
The main bathroom has been refitted with a modern white suite and matt black fittings with a free standing bath and large shower cubicle.
There is also a large games room with fully working bar which makes an ideal entertaining space, but could also be used as a second sitting room with a useful boot room to rear.
There is also a cellar room with internal access from the hall/lobby and the loft space is a huge boarded area and offers further scope for expansion.
Externally the gardens are large, with formal lawns on several levels, mature trees and shrubs, raised decked seating area with inset hot tub and a BBQ pod, providing an excellent space for outdoor entertaining.
The driveway has been redeveloped and resurfaced in its entirety to create easy access and ample parking for several cars.
The bungalow represents a truly unique opportunity for a growing family being close to popular local schools and amenities along with neighbouring Saddleworth villages including vibrant Uppermill with its range of shops, cafes, bars and restaurants therefore viewing is essential.
A wonderfully private home not to be missed. Please note - The EPC was arranged in 2020 before the renovation of the property was carried out.
