Description
Description
Set in the heart of Alderley Edge village, this beautifully presented home is part of an exclusive development, perfectly blending modern practicality with elegant interiors. Designed with flexibility and lifestyle in mind, the accommodation extends to approximately 2000sq ft and is arranged over three thoughtfully planned floors, ideal for families, professionals, or those seeking versatile space for guests or home working.
Upon entering, the wide hallway creates an immediate sense of space and light. To the front is a formal lounge with feature fireplace and neutral tones, offering a welcoming retreat for day-to-day living or entertaining. Further along the hall, a guest WC and a deep storage cupboard sit conveniently opposite the stairs.
To the rear, the heart of the home unfolds into a truly impressive open-plan kitchen and dining area measuring over 20ft x 19ft. This space has been designed for both everyday family life and larger-scale entertaining, with a substantial central island and breakfast bar, high-specification cabinetry, and integrated appliances including oven, hob, extractor, dishwasher and fridge/freezer. The generous proportions allow for a large dining table and soft seating area, while bi-fold doors seamlessly connect a beautiful garden room benefiting from swathes of natural light, and which leads to the rear garden, bringing the outside in.
The first floor offers two spacious double bedrooms, each with its own contemporary en suite bathroom, ideal for older children or guests. The front bedroom spans the full width of the property and benefits from a wide bay window, while the rear bedroom enjoys garden views. Both en suites are finished to a high standard with sleek tiling and quality fittings.
A central landing and additional storage complete this floor, maintaining the flow and practicality throughout.
The top floor is dedicated to an exceptional principal suite, offering the privacy and scale of a boutique hotel. The main bedroom spans over 20ft in length and features an impressive balcony overlooking the front aspect. Adjoining the bedroom is a generous dressing room, leading into a luxurious en suite bathroom, a large bath, and a separate walk-in shower, all finished in a timeless, contemporary palette.
Externally the rear garden has been landscaped for low maintenance, featuring a terrace for entertaining, matured hedging and fenced boundaries for privacy. The front of the property benefits from well-kept hedging and a drive way for two cars.
