Location Ellesmere Park grew up around 1900 as an affluent, tree-lined suburb attracting successful Manchester residents who wanted to retreat to fresh air and peaceful surroundings, and it has retained its exclusive ambience into the twenty-first century. Now one of the most desirable addresses in Greater Manchester, it combines a real sense of community with an enormously convenient location.
A peaceful conservation area with an air of opulent seclusion, Greenwood is also convenient for a wide range of shops and services.
Leisure As well as the many fine walks around the Ellesmere Park area, there are several more organised sports and leisure facilities, including Worsley Golf Club and the City Leisure Centre, both less than a mile away.
Shopping The local shops based around Monton Road in Eccles include a wide range of convenience stores, newsagents, food shops and a post office, to cater for most everyday needs, and Eccles also has a selection of small supermarkets. For an even wider selection, Salford Shopping City, around two miles from Greenwood, creates a modern retail environment, with fashion outlets, banks and building societies, restaurants and supermarkets, including Tesco and Iceland. And, by way of contrast, the nearby traditional open-air market contains over 100 stalls with a wonderful assortment of goods for sale.
Greenwood is also less than two miles from the flagship Trafford Park shopping mall, which includes over 200 retail outlets, including large branches of Selfridges, Debenhams and a major John Lewis store.
Transport The development is just a few minutes' drive from the M602, which not only offers rapid travel to central Manchester, it also gives access to the M60, M61 and M62 motorway network, and brings Warrington and Liverpool into commuting range. Greenwood is close to good bus services, as well as being five minutes away from a Metro Station, allowing access into the Quays and Manchester city centre. Manchester Airport is only around half an hour away. |
