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
26 Brotherton Drive, Salford, M3 6BH SEE THE VIDEO TOUR FOR THIS HOME Welcome to 26 Brotherton Drive, a beautifully presented three-bedroom semi-detached home offering stylish, modern living just moments from Manchester City Centre.
Extending to approximately 1,234 sq.
ft., this thoughtfully improved property combines generous living space with high-quality finishes, all set within a quiet and private cul-de-sac in one of Salford’s most convenient locations.
A Stylish Home Designed for Modern Living Step inside via the welcoming hallway and you’ll immediately appreciate the sense of space and flow throughout the ground floor.
The front lounge provides a comfortable and cosy setting - perfect for relaxing evenings - while the layout naturally leads you through to the impressive open-plan kitchen and dining space at the rear.
The kitchen, supplied by Howdens and installed by a skilled joiner, is both functional and beautifully styled.
Featuring oak butcher’s block worktops, a classic Belfast sink, and a striking herringbone tiled floor, this space has been designed with both everyday living and entertaining in mind.
Integrated appliances include a dishwasher, cooker, five-burner gas range, and extractor, while thoughtful lighting with a mix of spot and pendant fittings enhances the overall finish.
Double doors open onto the rear garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living - ideal for hosting guests or enjoying warmer months.
A separate utility room adds practicality, keeping household tasks tucked away, while a contemporary shower room completes the ground floor accommodation.
A further study provides flexibility, whether used as a home office, playroom, or additional snug.
Well-Proportioned Bedrooms and Modern Bathrooms Upstairs, the property continues to impress with three well-sized bedrooms.
The principal bedroom benefits from newly installed 24-hour water-lock laminate flooring and its own en-suite shower room, finished with modern fittings and bespoke cabinetry.
The remaining bedrooms are equally well-proportioned and served by a stylish main bathroom, recently updated with high-quality finishes.
All bathrooms within the property have been thoughtfully upgraded, including custom-built cabinetry and premium tiling, offering a clean and contemporary feel throughout.
Outdoor Space and Practical Features Externally, the home enjoys a private, walled rear garden that has been recently landscaped for low maintenance.
With Indian stone paving, artificial grass, and outdoor lighting, it’s a space designed for both relaxation and entertaining with minimal upkeep required.
To the front, a generous driveway provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles - an increasingly rare feature so close to the city centre.
Upgrades and Improvements The current owner has undertaken significant improvements to enhance both comfort and efficiency, including a rear single-storey and side double-storey extension, a new roof, upgraded boiler, and improved loft insulation.
The property also benefits from a Hive smart heating system.
A Location That Offers the Best of Both Worlds Positioned within a peaceful cul-de-sac, this home offers a rare combination of tranquillity and accessibility.
You’re just a short walk from Spinningfields (approx. 10 minutes), Manchester Arndale and Market Street (approx. 15 minutes), and Salford University.
For commuters, both Salford Crescent and Salford Central stations are within easy reach, providing excellent transport links across the region.
Nearby green spaces, including Peel Park, offer the perfect escape for outdoor walks and leisure time.
Flexible Use & Investment Potential In addition to its appeal as a stylish family home, the property also benefits from previously approved planning permission for use as a four-bedroom House in Multiple Occupation (C4), which has been implemented as part of the extension works.
This provides an alternative opportunity for buyers seeking an investment, with the potential to generate strong rental returns, subject to any necessary licensing, compliance, and individual requirements.
The property is currently arranged and presented as a private dwelling, allowing a purchaser to choose the most suitable use moving forward.
A Home Ready for Its Next Chapter Lovingly improved with quality and attention to detail, this is a home that perfectly balances modern style with practical living.
Its generous proportions, excellent location, and turn-key condition make it an ideal choice for professionals, families, or anyone looking to enjoy city living within a quieter residential setting.
