A terraced house that’s so narrow you’d be forgiven for not realising it was actually there has gone on the market in Greater Manchester.
The property sits on a quaint street in the Rochdale village of Littleborough – which is loved for its semi-rural location and proximity to open countryside, while still being within easy reaching distance of plenty of local amenities, schooling options, and transport links.
This stone-built terraced house may be squeezed in the middle of two other normal terraces, but it’s still got a lot to offer.
And it’s surprisingly bigger inside than it looks from the outside.
Boasting two bedrooms, a kitted-out kitchen, a flexible reception room, and a three-piece bathroom, the property may look considerably more narrow than its neighbours, but it actually extends out at the back to provide more space to work with.

The kitchen, smaller bedroom, and the bathroom each measure less than two metres in width, while the lounge offers a little more space at three and a half metres wide.
The larger bedroom does measuring at a generous 2.7 metres, however.

Despite the fact that it could still do with a little bit of work to carry on the modernisation as a number of the rooms remain unfinished, this house is still ideal as an investment rental property, or perfect as a starter home for a First Time Buyer.
The estate agents selling the property have described it as “well presented throughout the internal accommodation.”
The property’s “popular location” has also been listed as one of its best features.

It’s currently on the market with Rochdale-based independent estate agents Cowell & Norford for £100,000, having been recently reduced.
This is much lower than Greater Manchester’s average house price of £249,418.

Home Bargains has announced a special two-day closure of all UK stores
Emily Sergeant
Home Bargains has, once again, announced it’ll be closing all its UK stores on both Boxing Day and New Year’s Day this year.
And it’s to make sure staff get a ‘well deserved break’.
After what has been yet another busy year for the retail industry, many workers have been left feeling like they could do with a little extra time off, which is why Home Bargains is following on with what has become a now-annual tradition by shutting up shop on two bank holidays.
All of our stores will be closing for Boxing Day & New Years Day.
Announcing the move in a post on social media, the discount retailer confirmed: “All of our stores will be closing for Boxing Day and New Years Day. We would like to thank all our colleagues for how hard you have worked this past year, and want you to relax and enjoy the Christmas break with your loved ones.”
Of course, this isn’t the first time the retailer has kept its doors shut on bank holidays.
Many shoppers will recall it has made the same decision to give hardworking staff a break every year since 2019.
Explaining a little more about the decision taken to close all its stores, Home Bargains said: “As a family-run business, we know the importance of being together at Christmas with those we care about most, now more than ever.
“This is our way of saying thank you to our colleagues for their continued hard work and dedication.”

Two Greggs in Manchester will be serving their breakfast menu in the evening next week

Who says breakfast has to end at 11am?
In news that’s set to be music to the ears of breakfast lovers in Manchester, Greggs is giving them exactly what they want.
We all know that brunch is a ‘thing’ by now, so now it’s time for brinner to make a name for itself instead, as Greggs has teamed up with Heinz to bring its much-loved breakfast menu back for tea time, kicking off from 4pm onwards.
The move comes as a new survey has found that the majority of Mancs (69%) admit to enjoying eating breakfast food in the evening, saying it’s ‘convenient and comforting’ – even ranking breakfast as a ‘more important’ meal than tea, as well (38% vs 36%).

Greggs says it has ‘lost count’ of the amount of customers that have tried to order breakfast items after the usual cut-off time, especially in Greater Manchester.
But luckily for those breakfast-loving Mancs, they can finally get their favourite breakfast and sauce pairing long after the morning rush is over next… but only at two Greggs branches, and only for a very limited time.
On Wednesday 14 and Thursday 15 October, the Heinz x Greggs Brinner collab will be available at Greggs St Mary’s Gate and Greggs Oxford Road, from 4-7pm only.
“We’ve lost count of the number of customers who have tried their luck ordering breakfast after 11am, so when Heinz came to us with the idea of making Brinner a reality, it felt like the perfect excuse to give the people what they want,” explained Zoe Harris, who is the Customer Director at Greggs.
“And let’s be honest, a Greggs Bacon Roll just wouldn’t be the same without a squeeze of Heinz Tomato Ketchup.”
