Inside Greater Manchester's most expensive home that is still on the market after almost a year

Out of the 12,244 properties currently listed for sale on Zoopla across Greater Manchester, this beautiful home is the most expensive - but it is yet to find an owner. The seven-bed detached house was put on the market back in October 2023 for £8,995,000 and remains on the market today.

The lavish property is found on Broadway in Hale, one of the region's most desirable and prestigious roads, where the average home sold for £2.5 million over the last 12 months, according to Zoopla. Featuring a run of around 30 mega mansions, the tree-lined street is so discreet that it can't be viewed on Google Street View.

It is no surprise then that the region's priciest property is located here, boasting a whopping seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms and four reception rooms.

Estate agents Gascoigne Halman who are marketing the property say: "A truly exquisite residence built in the Arts and Crafts style which is widely seen throughout the area. Its footprint, form, scale, and appearance have all been carefully considered to create a building which sits in harmony with its surroundings.

"With an abundance of high-quality materials throughout including natural slate roofing, hardwood framing, brick walls and natural stone detailing. The results are of a timeless quality blending with, and complementing the surrounding properties.

"Although a brand new build completed in 2023 and offering in excess of 11,000 sq.ft, the overall impression is of a house of character and architectural interest with a scale and massing that is proportional to the neighbouring properties and surrounding area."
