Importantly, the property is offered for sale with no onward chain.

Set behind established boundaries and enjoying an attractive dual aspect position, the house benefits from excellent frontage and a high degree of privacy.

To the first floor there are four generously sized bedrooms, served by two family bathrooms. Many of the rooms enjoy appealing garden or corner plot outlooks.

Its position, character and scale combine to make this a rare opportunity to acquire a standout period home with exceptional scope in a premier Wilmslow setting.
