From Wigan to Stockport, Salford to Tameside, and all the way into the city centre, we’ve picked out 10 of the best.

Scroll on to have a little snoop around…

Deansgate Square, Manchester

It’s one of Manchester city centre’s most famous addresses – a huddle of gigantic, modern skyscrapers that now dominate and define the skyline (sorry, Beetham Tower…)

And now you could live up on the 56th floor of the 64-storey South Tower, in a two-bedroom corner apartment.

Deansgate Square flats come with loads of amenities, like state-of-the-art leisure facilities (including a pool and gym), a 24-hour concierge, rentable suites and loads more.

The flat itself includes top-quality kitchen appliances, spa-like bathrooms, secure underground parking, and of course floor-to-ceiling windows to take in all the incredible views before you.

Gidlow Avenue, Wigan

You can get a lot of bang for your buck by going to one of Greater Manchester’s excellent northern boroughs, and this character property in Wigan is a prime example.

It’s got loads of beautiful period features, like a bay window, cast iron fireplace, and a large tiled hallway, then three large double bedrooms (including an en suite for the master).

Out the back you’ll find a low-maintenance garden, with off-street parking to the front of the home.

If you’re into your Victorian style interiors, you could move straight in without so much as a paintbrush.

Dale Road, Marple

This is a bucket list home if we’ve ever seen one – a barn converted into more than 5000 square feet of luxury living space.

Turncliffe Barn in Lowerdale has panoramic views and sits in an idyllic location surrounded by woodlands and green space.

Inside, there are huge vaulted oak-beamed ceilings, a cosy wood-burning stove, and five huge bedrooms, as well as four opulent bathrooms.

If this time of year makes you yearn for a The Holiday-style cosy English cottage, then this charming property in Summerseat in Greater Manchester is the one for you.

The stone cottage has been recently refurbished and still has loads of Victorian charm, like sash windows, original beams, and original cast iron radiators.

There are two country-style bedrooms with stunning views, and a converted loft room that can act as a third double bedroom.

The open plan kitchen has been refurbished and has a range cooker and other integrated appliances.

It’s all set in a quiet and rural location with Holcombe Hill countryside walks nearby.

Lee Lane, Bolton

This cottage in Horwich dates all the way back to the 1850s, with bags of charm and character as well as regular renovations keeping it right up to scratch.

Just a short walk from local pubs and shops and a short distance from links around Greater Manchester, the house is also on the doorstep of Rivington countryside – the best of both worlds.

Features include a spacious country kitchen/diner, feature stone fireplace, three double bedrooms, and a south-facing yard.

There’s also a double garage with a home office and space for a car.

We’re going large now, with The Old Vicarage in Tameside.

The huge detached family home has parking for several cars on a driveway and in a four-car garage, four bedrooms with potential for another two in the attic, a private garden with heated outbuildings.

Then inside, there’s open plan family space with two separate snug areas, and two en suites as well as a family bathroom.

There’s tonnes of luxury apartment living popping up around Salford now, just across the river from Manchester city centre.

Middlewood Locks is one of the most luxurious out there, a purpose-built canalside neighbourhood that’s already home to more than 2000 people.

Railings is the third phase of new homes, which will be ready to move in to in winter 2024/early 2025.

This particular flat is on a corner aspect with views of the private residents’ garden, with full-height glazed balcony doors, an open plan layout, and a high-spec finish.

Norwich Avenue, Rochdale

We’re a little obsessed with the inside of this four bedroom family home, from the sunny conservatory to the cosy wood burner in the second living room.

The spacious interior includes a newly renovated master bedroom with an en suite, then three further bedrooms and a family bathroom.

There’s a modern kitchen and a large studio for working from home, a gym, or whatever project you want to lend it to.

Beaufort Avenue, Sale

Right, you’re gonna have to use a little imagination for this one, as it’s going to need a bit of work…

But with some investment and a full refurbishment, you’ll end up with five bedroom south Manchester palace – or even more if you tackle the huge cellars too.

The period home has some lovely original features when you look past the less-lovely carpets and peeling wallpaper – there are fireplaces, bay windows, and huge rooms.

It’s also on the market with no chain.
