The quiet suburb of Northenden, sitting along the south bank of the river Mersey, is a perfect commuter hub for Manchester.
Situated just five miles south of the city centre, a train to Manchester Piccadilly from the nearby Gatley station takes just 15 minutes, with regular direct buses also available. Stockport is just a four mile drive to the East. Conveniently located near to both the M56 and M60, fast access to the rest of the country makes travel for work or a weekend away simple.
Palatine Road, the village’s healthy high street, offers several shops, cafés, bars and restaurants. The metropolis of Manchester, meanwhile, with its seemingly limitless shopping, events and nightlife, means you’ll never be stuck for something to do.
For keen golfers, Northenden, Withington, Didsbury, Chorlton-cum-Hardy and Sale golf clubs all neighbour each other along the Mersey, providing one of the best locations in the country for the choice of places to practice your swing. The river itself is extremely popular with anglers and is noted as an excellent fishing spot.
Several picturesque parks can be found nearby for a relaxing stroll, including Fletcher Moss Park, Chorlton Water Park and Sale Water Park. Meanwhile, more enthusiastic hikers and cyclists will enjoy the Transpennine Trail, which runs right along the banks of the Mersey as it snakes through Northenden.
