One of the most prestigious properties in Greater Manchester has just gone on the market, and it’s absolutely stunning.
Oh, and it also pays a bit of a resemblance to that big presidential gaff over in the US too.
Officially being listed as for sale last week on Valentine’s Day (14 February) with the Hale-based branch of estate agency chain, Jackson-Stops, for a Guide Price of a whopping £3.25 million, this impressive White House-style mansion occupies a prime position on North Road in the highly-regarded Trafford town of Hale.
Estate agents say the one-of-a-kind property is “bespoke” and has been “meticulously refurbished” in order to become the gem it is right now.
But, what exactly does the £3.25 million price tag get you then?

Well for starters, like we mentioned, it’s located in the heart of Hale – which is one of the most sought-after residential areas in Greater Manchester – and that means there’s an enviably-wide range of amenities, including local independent shops, cafes, restaurants and bars, all on the doorstep, as well as several well-regarded local schools, and some really convenient transport links across the region and beyond, within an easy reach too.
Not only is it in Hale, but estate agents claim it’s sat on one of the area’s “finest roads” too, so that already goes quite some way to explaining the listing price.
Set well-back from the road behind electric gates, and positioned within what are described as “large private grounds” that span approximately half an acre, the beautiful detached family home is immaculately-presented throughout, and right from the first glance of the pictures, it’s clear too see it has been lovingly-maintained by the current owners.
The property has several spacious reception rooms, four bedrooms, and four bathrooms to its name.

As well as boasting flexible and open-plan living accommodations that are light, spacious, modern, and tastefully decorated, there’s also some seriously stand-out features – including a grand reception hall, and a dining area overlooking gardens.
The living kitchen/diner is another one of the property’s highlights, and is referred to as the “focal point” of the home thanks to its space, top-of-the-range integrated appliances, and bi-fold doors leading to the rear garden.

All four bedrooms are suites, too – with the “generous” master bedroom boasting an en-suite bathroom and even a dressing room.
The outside grounds of the home are just as impressive as the inside too.
To the front, there’s a private driveway and a double garage that provides off-road parking for several vehicles, as well as a lawned garden area, while to the rear, the expansive space only continues wiht another large lawned garden, and a wrap-around stone flagged patio that’s perfect for entertaining all year round.

Oh, and to top it all off, this is also a Freehold house, which is always a massively-attractive feature for those looking to make changes to the property and grounds in the future.

If you ask us, we’d say viewing is an absolute must to appreciate all this house has to on offer.

Molly-Mae Hague revisits first Manchester flat, now on the market for £185k
Daisy Jackson
Molly-Mae Hague’s first Manchester flat is now on the market for £185k – and the star herself has paid a visit to her old digs.
Those who have been following Molly-Mae since before she shot to serious fame on Love Island will have recognised the backdrop of her recent TikTok video.
The 27-year-old reality TV star and businesswoman posed around the one-bedroom flat, dancing to Sabrina Carpenter’s ‘House Tour’.
The apartment is where she lived just before entering Love Island, and where she and now-fiance Tommy Fury lived briefly when they left the show.
And now that exact flat where she really launched her social media career has been listed for sale, at £185,000.
The corner apartment stands on the 17th floor of Islington Wharf, overlooking New Islington tram stop and right on the doorstep of Ancoats.
Her former landlord, who arranged for Molly-Mae to have one look around her old flat before it’s sold, said that she was a ‘lovely, polite and down-to-earth young woman, and an excellent tenant who looked after the apartment extremely well.’
The one bedroom apartment has double-aspect floor-to-ceiling windows which look across Manchester on one side, and out towards the Pennines on the other.
It’s listed for sale with no chain and the option to include existing furnishings (which seems to include the same couch Molly-Mae had at the time).
The flat also has a kitchen/living space, a communal garden, superfast broadband, and is within walking distance of Manchester Piccadilly.
New measures announced to tackle ‘rogue’ landlords across Greater Manchester

A cohort of trained enforcement officers are set to hit the streets in all 10 boroughs to help improve the lives of the region’s renters.
Forming part of Greater Manchester‘s commitment to the highest-quality housing standards alongside the Good Landlord Charter, the newly trained enforcement officers will be tasked with protecting tenants, joining Council teams in checking rental properties, bringing enforcement action against bad landlords, and cracking down on illegal practices.
The introduction of the new enforcement officers comes after what has been ‘years of sustained pressure’ on local budgets.
Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) says it is working with the 10 councils across the region to strengthen local teams, rebuild in-house skills and expertise, and ensure that powers can be applied with consistency in all boroughs.
As mentioned, this is happening alongside the Good Landlord Charter – which is GMCA’s ‘bold approach’ to drive up standards for renters across the region.
Landlords of more than half of rented properties in Greater Manchester have now signed up as supporters of the Charter, and as supporters, they have committed to going above and beyond legal minimums to improve the renting experience for hundreds of thousands of people.
“A safe place to call home is the cornerstone of a happy, healthy life,” explained Mayor Bev Craig. “But for years, people have felt trapped in poor-quality housing, and cash-strapped councils were unable to step in to help. I’m putting an end to that.
“We know there are plenty of good landlords in Greater Manchester, and many of them have already signed up to our Good Landlord Charter, but too many are just not good enough.
“That’s why we’re deploying a new generation of expert housing officers onto the streets of our towns and cities.”
Mayor Bev Craig declared that she ‘won’t stand by and let rogue landlords take advantage of people’.
She continued: “By empowering renters, working with responsible landlords, and using our powers to crack down on the bad ones, I will make sure everyone in Greater Manchester has the foundation for a good life.”
