Description
Built in 1885, the house sits amongst a number of grand Victorian villas built around Alexandra Park. This house has undergone an extensive restoration programme over the past 10 years by its current owner, who has respected the Victorian sensibilities of the building whilst introducing a rich colour and material palette.
The ground floor is made up of multiple large reception rooms and the stunning family kitchen with bespoke cabinetry and veined-marble worktops. Huge windows flood the rooms with natural light, whilst the spectacular sun room is breathtakingly beautiful and overlooks the picturesque gardens. There is also a guest bathroom and utility room found on this floor.
Below ground, be amazed at yet more living space! A dedicated cinema room and additional guest bedroom awaits. The basement level also provides plenty of useful storage space.
Ascending the imposing staircase and past the original stained glass window overlooking the landing, the first floor is made up of three individually perfect bedrooms, each with their own stylish decor and personality. The master bedroom has been turned into a magnificent facility with its very own walk-in dressing room and full size bathroom.
The top floor continues to impress; another large landing area giving way to four more bedrooms and a family bathroom. One of the rooms has been turned into a home work-space, whilst at the end of the corridor you'll find the most quaint and quirky bedroom, which resembles a boutique hotel room and boasts an in-room roll-top bathtub.
Externally, the pristine gardens have been beautifully landscaped and provide the most serene and otherworldly retreat. You wouldn't think the city centre of Manchester was just 10 minutes away! The gardens are separated into sections of seating, lawns, and there's even a private hot-tub terrace to the rear.
Through a Victorian garden wall you are greeted by The Coach House. Detached from the main house, it has recently been built as a standalone guest space, complete with a kitchen, shower room, and mezzanine sleeping area above. There is also private parking for two cars.
This spectacular one-of-a-kind homes is sure to be one of the most impressive properties you are likely to visit.
