Description
This attractive 1920’s detached home occupies a delightful position set on a generous plot and presents a superb opportunity for those seeking a property with outstanding potential. Enjoying mature surroundings and excellent privacy, the residence offers extensive scope for full modernisation, reconfiguration, and future extension (subject to the relevant consents), making it an ideal project for buyers wishing to tailor a long-term family home to their own specification.
Set well back from Manchester Road, the property is approached via a broad driveway providing plentiful parking and leads to the detached garage. The house enjoys a commanding frontage with a gated approach and a wonderful sense of space, with established front gardens. The ground floor is bright and well balanced, with generous room proportions characteristic of homes of this era. The entrance hall provides a welcoming introduction to the property and leads to a series of versatile reception rooms, including a formal living room and formal dining room each offering exciting potential for redesign. Large windows and period features are inherent throughout including high ceilings, stained glass windows, and exposed wooden beams offer a charming foundation for refurbishment. The spacious kitchen/diner allows for informal dining and invites re-imagining as a modern open-plan family space. A generous conservatory adjoins the kitchen with French doors onto the rear garden. A fitted utility room and wine cellar complete the ground floor.
The first floor offers four generously proportioned bedrooms, two benefitting from en suites together with a family bathroom and an additional w.c. The principal suite enjoys a lovely rear garden aspect and benefits from fitted wardrobes. Bedrooms two and three also boast fitted wardrobes. The en suite shower rooms have been recently upgraded offering a contemporary finish to the first floor.
Externally, the plot is a significant attraction. The sizeable rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn and framed by mature trees and planting, ensuring excellent privacy and a tranquil setting. The abundance of outside space offers exceptional potential for landscaping, recreation, or extension works.
Buyers seeking a Wilmslow home that promises both immediate charm and extraordinary opportunity will find this property an appealing and versatile prospect. Its location, plot size, and scope for enhancement make it a rare find, one that invites transformation into a truly exceptional family residence.
