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.

Channel 4 is looking for Mancs who think they can survive the apocalypse for a new TV series
Lydia Mastrolonardo
Have you always wanted to see how long you’d last in an apocalypse?
Well now’s your chance, as Apocalypse is potentially coming back to Channel 4 for a second series, with producers having put out a nationwide casting call for contestants willing to take part.
The casting call simply reads: “Do you think you have what it takes to survive the end of the world?”
Described as a dystopian series designed to test the creativity, resourcefulness, and resilience of our nation, Apocalypse sees players are pushed out of their comfort zones and put to the ultimate test.
In the series, ordinary people are tasked with surviving for 28 days in an abandoned city – used previously only for the military to practice urban warfare – with no food, running water, electricity or heat.
Produced by The Garden – which is part of ITV Studios – for Channel 4, the show’s creators are now calling on Mancs and people up and down the country with the ‘courage and ingenuity’ to compete, to get in touch and apply for the potential second series.
Does your mate always bang on after watching a post-apocalyptic film that they would’ve done things differently? Or is the news at the moment freaking you out and you want to give the end of the world a bit of a practice run? Either way, sign up, test that plan you’ve built in your head, and see if you’ve really got what it takes.
Applications are now open, and all you need to do is fill in a short application form and one of the production team will get back to you if they would like to proceed. Come on, let’s prove what Mancs are made of.
Hundreds of katsu curries are being given out for FREE in Manchester this week

Hundreds of katsu curries are being dished up and given out for free in Manchester this week, but only for certain people.
And those lucky people will be students.
That’s right… a new semester is upon us, and thousands of freshers and returning students are descending on the city and Manchester‘s many universities for another year. But the life of a student isn’t exactly the cheapest sometimes, especially for those who haven’t had to live on a budget before moving out or into halls.
But to make things a little easier, Tampopo has announced it’ll be serving hundreds of one of its most popular dishes for free this week.
Tampopo is celebrating National Katsu Curry Day in the most delicious way possible, by giving away 700 Katsu Curries with rice for free, exclusively to freshers and students this Sunday (27 September).
Whether you’re brand new to the city, settling back into uni life, or you’re simply in need of a katsu fix, students can head to their nearest participating Tampopo and tuck into a hearty meal without needing to spend a penny.
100 katsu curries will be available each from 12-2pm at both Tampopo restaurants in Manchester city centre – which are on Albert Square, and in the Corn Exchange – or if you head over to the Trafford Centre, both the Tampopo there and the East Street sites are taking part.
“[Our] Katsu Curry has long been one of our most-loved dishes, so National Katsu Curry Day felt like the perfect excuse to give students a proper welcome to the new academic year,” Tampopo said in a statement.
So, are you feeling hungry then? The offer is exclusively available for takeaway only to freshers and students with a valid student ID, which they must present on collection.
100 portions are available at each participating location, and just one free katsu curry with rice will be available per person.
