## Description

The journey begins as you step through the handy porch, an essential addition for those muddy boots after a walk or for safely tucking away those frequent Amazon deliveries. From here, you enter the bright and spacious lounge, which serves as the perfect sanctuary for movie nights or curling up with a book on a rainy afternoon. Moving through to the rear, you'll find the true heart of the home: a stunning kitchen/diner that spans the full width of the property. This social hub is a chef’s dream, whether you're a gourmet cook or just a master of the microwave, and it opens out beautifully to the garden, making it an ideal spot for hosting friends and family.

Heading upstairs, the layout is perfectly balanced for modern families or professionals working from home. Bedroom 1 is a generous double with plenty of natural light, while Bedroom 2 offers another spacious double option complete with integrated storage to keep things clutter-free. Bedroom 3 is a versatile space that functions perfectly as a nursery, a child’s bedroom, or a dedicated home office. The first floor is completed by a modern, crisp family bathroom.

The outdoor space is just as impressive; the rear garden is a true standout, being larger than your average plot and offering a great mix of lawn and patio areas for summer BBQs. Plus, the detached garage provides that essential extra storage space or workshop area we all crave.

Description

This beautifully modernised semi-detached gem on Windermere Road is calling your name. Situated in the highly sought-after area of Wistaston, this home has been lovingly maintained and stylishly updated by the current owners to create a contemporary living space that feels fresh from top to bottom. From the moment you pull up onto the ample off-road parking at the front—which offers plenty of space for multiple vehicles—you’ll sense the quality and care that has gone into this property.

The journey begins as you step through the handy porch, an essential addition for those muddy boots after a walk or for safely tucking away those frequent Amazon deliveries. From here, you enter the bright and spacious lounge, which serves as the perfect sanctuary for movie nights or curling up with a book on a rainy afternoon. Moving through to the rear, you'll find the true heart of the home: a stunning kitchen/diner that spans the full width of the property.
