Description
Broomleigh is an attractive detached house standing in private, gated gardens with remote control entry gates and parking on a gravelled driveway for a number of cars and with a detached double garage. The lawned gardens extend to both the front and the rear of the house, are well proportioned, landscaped and with a terrace to the rear of the kitchen and family area. The accommodation is ideal for a family, well balanced with three spacious ground floor reception rooms, and with five bedrooms and three bathrooms at first floor level. The house has been significantly improved over the course of the last few years and is presented in really good fashion throughout.
An attractive tiled floor runs through the entrance hall into the kitchen space, there is a remodelled ground floor WC with matching tiling and mirrored walls, and the three great reception rooms include a good sized lounge which overlooks the front with a natural stone fireplace and living flame gas fire, a smaller, adjacent family room with a range of fitted cabinets and a bay window with window seat and seating under. The impressive kitchen/breakfast/family room has a lovely hand painted kitchen with a large central island with stone style tops, two sinks and a Quooker hot tap. The range of appliances include a Miele oven, grey two oven Aga cooker and an American fridge freezer. There is breakfast bar seating around the island and french doors lead out to the terrace and garden. The adjacent family room is open to the kitchen area with a smart, oak style floor, matching french doors to the terrace and a range of bespoke shelving astride the chimney breast with a large wood burning stove. A utility room also leads off the hall with fitted cupboards and a door to the drive.
The first floor landing gives access to each of the bedrooms - the main bedroom is of a good size with two windows overlooking the rear, built-in double wardrobe and an en suite shower room. The adjacent former fifth bedroom has been converted for the present owners into a dressing room (although could easily be re instated), with a range of three-quarter height bespoke wardrobes with dressing table. The second bedroom is another large double with a range of built-in wardrobes and an en suite shower room and the two further remaining bedrooms, both of a good size, share a family bathroom with oversized bath and separate walk-in shower cubicle.
Mere is a very popular and sought after area, home to some of the regions most prestigious houses, which border The Mere Golf Resort and the lake, which forms it’s centre piece. Access to Knutsford is just a couple of minutes by car with Hale around 10 minutes away and Tatton Park, a fabulous amenity space, is literally across the road.
