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.

A Twilight rave is coming to Manchester with DJs blasting 2000s indie and emo anthems

A Twilight rave is coming to Manchester this spooky season.
It’s been nearly 20 years since the release of the titular first film in the Twilight Saga, based on author Stephanie Meyer’s bestselling book series of the same name, but despite two decades having passed, the films remain as beloved as ever.
Twilight went on to become a global phenomenon when it first hit cinemas back in November 2008, not just with its target audience of teens and young adults, but with people of all ages – making stars out of its lead actors Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart in the process, and generating millions at the box office.
With the impact it had on the culture at the time, it’s no wonder Twilight remained among fans’ favourites all these years later.
And this success is why events company Throwback Events is hosting a series of Twilight Raves across the UK and Europe this autumn, making a stop off here in Manchester in late November with tickets now on sale.
The event description reads: “Bella, where the hell you been loca? Join us as we celebrate Twilight at the club, where every day is Hoa Hoa Hoa season.
“Step into the shadows and relive the magic, mystery, and eternal romance of Twilight. Get ready for a night of anthems, nostalgia, and glittering darkness as we transform the dancefloor into Forks’ most iconic vampire coven.”
DJs will be spinning Twilight soundtracks on the night, alongside dark pop, emo, indie, and 2000s bangers, as well as playing fan edits from the films on big screens.
Oh, and to make it all the better, dressing up as vampires and werewolves is ‘highly encouraged’.
Fancy it then? The Twilight Rave is coming to the Deaf Institute in Manchester on Saturday 21 November, and tickets will set you back upwards of £7 each.
