In the heart of some of Greater Manchester's most dramatic countryside, while also having close links to the major towns and cities of Greater Manchester and West Yorkshire, the Saddleworth villages have long been popular with house hunters looking for a more rural lifestyle.
Estate agents Hunters describe the West View cottage as a 'good size stone terrace... situated in a desirable location with open views over local farm land and a short distance from Delph village'.
They add: "West View itself is a small row of terraced cottages that have always proven popular because of their proximity to Delph’s village centre whilst enjoying a rural setting with the added benefit of Friarmere cricket club to the rear.
