Description
This much improved and beautifully presented traditional double fronted detached family house is set well back from the grass verge and tree lined carriageway and occupies an enviable position within this ever popular locality. Surrounding properties include detached houses of varying design within large grounds and subsequently there is much further potential (subject to obtaining the relevant approval) as can be seen from our client's architectural plans and neighbouring homes.
The property stands in an exceptional site approximately ¼ of an acre with a full width paved terrace to the rear which is ideal for entertaining during the summer months. The vast expanse of lawn beyond is further enhanced by well stocked borders and all screened by a variety of mature trees and hedges.
The accommodation is spacious throughout and incorporates rooms of generous size approached through a welcoming entrance hall which leads into each of the reception rooms as well as the superbly appointed cloakroom/WC and breakfast kitchen. An elegant full depth sitting room opens onto the paved rear terrace through sliding windows and a naturally light dining room with angular bay window is perfect for formal entertaining. The breakfast kitchen has been fitted with an extensive range of units and integrated appliances and enjoys stunning views over the impressive rear gardens. There is also access to a useful utility room and completing the ground floor is a home office/study which may prove invaluable for those who choose to work from home.
At first floor level there are four excellent double bedrooms, three of which benefit from fitted/built-in wardrobes and a sumptuous bathroom/WC complete with freestanding bath and separate shower enclosure.
Gas fired central heating has been installed together with a pressurised hot water system and double glazing.
Externally, the driveway provides off road parking and there is the added advantage of an EV charging point. The attached garage is accessed from the utility room and is currently configured as a home gym.
Hale Barns continues to be a highly desirable location and is well placed for all amenities with access to the M56 motorway approximately one mile distance and with local shops in the revitalised village centre which includes Waitrose supermarket and Costa Coffee. The property is within the catchment area of the highly regarded Elmridge Primary and Nursery School and a little over half a mile to the west is Cheshire green belt with country walks toward the Bollin Valley.
