Manchester has many properties on the market to meet varying budgets, but some homes are more unique than others.
A four-bedroom “character” cottage is currently for sale in Greenmount in Bury, and it’s not your average property. Described by the estate agent as a “stunning” and “unique” home, the semi-detached cottage comes with an impressive five-storey tower, so you’d essentially be living in your very own castle.
The semi-rural property is in the heart of Greenmount's Kirklees Trail nature reserve and is accessed via electric gates leading to a communal courtyard. The tower, which was built in 1840, boasts a rooftop garden offering panoramic views over Greater Manchester.

The ground floor of Tower Court has an entrance hall, a lounge, a kitchen/dining room, and a WC. The master bedroom with an ensuite and fitted wardrobes is found on the first floor, with another bedroom and a bathroom.
The second floor is one room which can be used as another bedroom, dressing room or a study. Above this is another large bedroom, but arguably the best room lies on the fourth floor - an entertainment lounge comprising a bar and cinema room.
The property has a communal garden area, but the fifth and final floor of the tower is your very own private rooftop garden with views right across Manchester. This includes uninterrupted outlooks ranging from Peel Tower to Manchester City Centre.
Despite being a characterful cottage, the interior of Tower Court has modern finishes and makes the most of its architecture with the clever design and layout of the property. The home also has plenty of storage space and parking, and comes with a communal garage area.
The cottage is within easy reach of local amenities, schools, shopping and entertainment. As it’s situated in the countryside, there are plenty of walks and bridleways nearby.
Tower Court is currently on the market for £625,000. You can find out more about the property, view additional photos and contact the estate agent here.
