For Sale4 Bedroom End of terrace House in Henrietta Street, Manchester, M16 9GA£550,000

Locally known as the “Big House” this unique 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom, Victorian home sits in the centre of Old Trafford, on a very large walled corner plot, which features a remote-controlled shutter door providing drive-in access to the off-road parking consisting of a carport and garage. There is an opportunity, subject to planning approval, of substantially increasing the accommodation. Permitted development should allow the erection of a single storey extension to the existing kitchen of approximately 4 metres wide by 8 meters long with skylights and connecting to the large garden. This would provide a very large open plan space comprising the existing lounge, family room and kitchen, and could include a ground floor cloakroom and lavatory. This proposal respects the existing building lines. There are loft spaces which could also be converted. It could be possible to build a 4 storey (including basement) extension at the side to provide a substantial master suite and self-contained accommodation for other family members. There are 2 substantial dry cellar chambers which are already above head height, which could be adapted to provide additional accommodation. The house is among one of the most original in the area. It retains the original Victorian sash windows and stained glass. Most still have the original Victorian “wavy” glass. The entrance hall has the original cornices, picture rails and corbels, plus a spectacular stained glass door panel. There are high ceilings throughout, the highest being in the 2 principal bedrooms at 10’10’’ or 3.3 metres. There are some repairs required. A schedule of works will be provided for serious buyers.
