About
Tenure: Leasehold Tucked away on one of Prestwich’s most desirable streets, this remarkable three-storey, 4/5-bedroom Victorian home offers a rare blend of period character, contemporary comfort and genuine cultural history.
Beautifully finished throughout, the property showcases elegant décor, generous room proportions and a wealth of original-style features, creating a home that feels both grand and warmly inviting.
Once home to the iconic Graveyard Studios, the property has fascinating links to Manchester’s music scene, with artists including Joy Division, New Order and The Durutti Column having recorded within its walls.
Inside, the accommodation is impressively versatile.
Two substantial reception rooms provide elegant living and entertaining space, while the modernised dining kitchen forms the heart of the home, combining contemporary finishes with a practical, sociable layout and direct access to the rear courtyard.
The lower ground floor offers superb additional space, currently arranged as a stylish office/gym and a bedroom, alongside a luxurious shower room.
This level provides excellent flexibility for working from home, guests, hobbies or family life.
Upstairs, four well-proportioned bedrooms continue the home’s refined style, with the principal bedroom benefitting from fitted wardrobes and charming period details.
A beautifully appointed family bathroom features a walk-in rainfall shower, freestanding roll-top bath and traditional fittings.
Externally, the property enjoys a private front garden screened by mature hedging, together with a low-maintenance Mediterranean-style courtyard to the rear - ideal for evening drinks, potted planting and relaxed entertaining.
Perfectly positioned just moments from Prestwich Village, The Clough and several open green spaces, the home also enjoys excellent access to local shops, restaurants, bars, schools, Metrolink connections and the M60 motorway network.
A truly distinctive home combining space, style, history and location - early viewing is highly recommended.
