4, Thornbank Close, Heywood, OL10 2NH

Properties on this estate don’t come to market very often – and when they do, they’re like gold dust.

This is quite simply one of those locations where people wait for the right house to become available.

Set in the highly sought-after Hopwood area, directly opposite Hopwood Park and Hopwood Country Primary School, this beautifully presented detached home offers the perfect combination of move-in-ready style, generous family accommodation and exciting potential to create something even more special.

The current owners have renovated the property throughout, creating a home that feels fresh, modern and ready to enjoy from day one.

But there’s more… planning permission is already in place to extend the kitchen and replace the existing conservatory, giving the next owners the opportunity to take this already impressive home and transform it into their dream family space.

Step inside and you’re welcomed by a bright entrance hall leading into a really versatile layout.

There’s a fantastic second reception room/playroom or potential fourth bedroom, making this ideal for growing families, home workers, teenagers or simply those who love having a little extra space.

The main lounge is a great-sized family room with a feature log burner creating the perfect focal point for evenings in, while sliding doors lead straight into the existing conservatory – currently providing additional living space and enjoying lovely views across the garden.

The kitchen is currently arranged in a practical galley style, with the existing layout offering plenty of scope to create something much bigger and more sociable.

With planning permission already granted to extend and replace the conservatory, imagine opening this whole area up into the kind of impressive kitchen/dining/family room that becomes the true heart of the home – somewhere for morning coffees, homework, family dinners, entertaining friends and those big summer get-togethers.

A downstairs boot room and shower room add another brilliant practical touch – particularly useful for busy family life, muddy walks and all the paraphernalia that comes with living so close to open spaces.

Upstairs, there are three genuinely spacious double bedrooms, along with a modern family bathroom.

There’s no squeezing everyone into tiny bedrooms here – this is proper family-sized accommodation with plenty of room to grow. Outside is where this property really continues to impress.

The front and rear gardens are beautifully established, providing lovely outdoor space for children to play, entertaining in the summer or simply enjoying a bit of peace and privacy.

There’s also a driveway providing off-road parking and a single garage. And then there’s the location… Hopwood is one of those places that buyers actively wait for.

With Hopwood Park and Hopwood Country Primary School virtually on the doorstep, along with easy access to countryside walks, local amenities and excellent transport links towards Heywood, Bury, Rochdale and Manchester, it’s easy to understand why homes here are so tightly held.

A beautifully renovated home in one of Hopwood’s most desirable pockets, with planning permission already in place to take it to the next level.

Move in, enjoy it exactly as it is, and then make the most of the opportunity to create something truly exceptional.
