A day in the life of this home
Red brick terrace, walkable Longsight dining
22 August 2026
The house from the pavement
The address sits in Longsight, Manchester, three miles south of the city centre in the North West of England. The neighbourhood is dense and diverse.
Looking back down the street
The house is a red-brick mid-terrace with concrete interlocking roof tiles and white uPVC windows and door. The street sits within an ONS-classified Low-Skilled Migrant and Student Communities area—a block of frequent arrivals and departures.
The house sits in EA Flood Zone 1 with no recorded flood events within 100 metres. A flood defence line runs 185 metres away.
Crowcroft Park. Crowcroft Park is four minutes on foot from the front door, closer than parks available to nine-tenths of English neighbourhoods. An early circuit and the terrace is back in sight before the street has started.
Thirty-one NaPTAN bus and tram stops occupy a 500-metre radius—top one per cent nationally. Levenshulme Rail Station is just over a kilometre away for rail access into Manchester and beyond.
Within an 800-metre radius: 13 greenspace polygons totalling 10.4 hectares—more than 99 per cent of English neighbourhoods at this scale. Surface water sits 148 metres from the house.
The day's walking loop
The area recorded 542 property sales over five years, marking it as an active, high-turnover market. The house last changed hands in 2026.
Longsight Cricket Club. The Longsight Cricket Club anchors an extended green corridor stretching toward Crowcroft Park—a short walk from the front door. The two create a stretch of outdoor sporting space without requiring a journey or a plan.
Lidl. Lidl is five minutes on foot; Asda Longsight Superstore is six. Both errands are done before the afternoon opens.
Lahori Nazara. Lahori Nazara stands 140 paces north; Shake Bee lies in the same direction at an identical stride-count. Dinner on Rushford St requires no transport and no plan.
Road noise sits below the 55 dB END threshold. Annual NO₂ measures 15.8 µg/m³, under the WHO guideline limit for an urban address.
Four Ofsted Outstanding-rated schools lie across a 3.1-mile radius, and the nearest Good-or-better school sits just 424 steps away. The closest secondary option at 1.9 miles is also rated Outstanding.
The local LSOA shows one crime incident and zero burglaries or anti-social behaviour cases in the past 12 months.
Crowcroft Park. The green corridor radiating from Rushford Street reaches 10.4 hectares across 13 registered polygons—an asset that opens the day and closes it. Crowcroft Park anchors the ensemble.
Grid carbon intensity this evening runs at around 25 gCO₂/kWh. Eighty-two solar PV installations already operate across the surrounding kilometre.
