## Description

**April House** is a handsome Edwardian detached home with the space, character and flexibility to suit family life. Tucked away in the sought-after Sydall Park Conservation Area, it combines four generous double bedrooms and three bathrooms with a ground-floor annexe, all just a short stroll from Bramhall village and the railway station.

Original details give the house its charm: stained-glass leaded lights, stripped floorboards, picture rails, ceiling cornices and high skirting boards. Outside, the established plot extends to approximately a quarter of an acre. Its large, mature west-facing garden is wonderfully private, while a drive-in, drive-out driveway provides parking for several cars and leads to an attached garage and secure carport.

The impressive entrance hall sets the tone for the accommodation. A bay-fronted dining room with a wood-burning stove offers a welcoming space for entertaining, while the spacious living room features an inglenook fireplace and opens into the conservatory. The dining kitchen has its own bay window and window seat. A rear porch, utility room and downstairs WC complete the main ground floor.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom has a bay window and newly fitted en-suite shower room. Three further double bedrooms are served by a modern bathroom and a separate shower/wet room.

A particular feature is the ground-floor annexe. Connected to the house but with its own side entrance, it includes a hallway, double bedroom, kitchen and shower room. It could provide independent space for a relative, teenager or au pair.

For buyers looking to make the house their own, there is also planning permission to extend the accommodation to approximately **3,674 sq ft** (Stockport Council reference **DC/083723**). With nearby primary schools and easy access to the A555 and A34, April House offers a rare combination of a peaceful setting, village convenience and room to grow.

EPC Rating: D
