Running Hill Farm House is found towards the end of the hamlet meaning you enjoy fantastic open aspect views from within the property as well as from the outside too. Impressive sized gardens span almost 0.5 acres from front to rear. Ample off road gated parking for numerous vehicles along with detached double garage & workshop.

Internally the property comprises of entrance porch, dining room, lounge, sitting room, kitchen, utility room and side porch. From the lounge, a set of stairs leads to the bright first floor landing. Three double bedrooms and large bathroom are found off the landing area.

Formal garden spaces are found to the front and rear of the property. At the front is a beautifully maintained lawn, mature trees, shrubs and block paved patio areas. You benefit from the splendid views on offer from the front garden. To the rear is another fantastic sized lawn, which again benefits from mature trees, shrubs and patio areas. There is also a beautiful pond with miniature woodland which is a standout feature of the garden.

Ample parking is available - there is a gated driveway for at least five cars along with double garage.

The picturesque setting of the property makes this a highly desirable location with the added benefit of still being within walking distance of nearby Saddleworth villages. Just a 5-10 minute drive to Tesco supermarket in Greenfield along with Greenfield Railway Station with frequent rail links to Manchester and Leeds City Centres.

Whilst the house does need a degree of modernisation, rarely do opportunities arise to acquire a home of this positioning and have the ability to put your own stamp on it. Contact Kirkham Property to enquire further or to request a viewing of Running Hill Farm House.

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
