Timperley is a village within Trafford, known for its strong residential character, excellent schools and well-maintained housing stock. The area is predominantly 1930s and 1940s semi-detached and detached properties along Park Road, Stockport Road and the surrounding residential streets, with some more recent infill development. Timperley backs onto Altrincham to the south and Sale to the north and east. Its 1930s semis are well-loved family homes where many residents have lived for decades — and a stairlift is increasingly the key to staying in them long-term.
