Description
A sense of grandeur is immediately apparent upon entering the impressive reception hall, where an abundance of natural light and beautifully proportioned interiors create a striking first impression. Thoughtfully designed to cater for both large-scale entertaining and comfortable everyday living, the ground floor offers a seamless balance of open-plan and formal spaces.
To the front of the home, two elegant reception rooms, each centred around a feature fireplace, provide refined spaces for relaxation and entertaining. To the rear, a formal dining room enjoys views over the garden and opens onto the terrace through French doors. Undoubtedly the heart of the home, the spectacular open-plan living kitchen/diner has been meticulously designed and features a substantial central island, bespoke cabinetry and an extensive range of premium integrated appliances. A secondary kitchen and utility room provide invaluable practicality, whilst a generous guest suite with walk in wardrobe and en-suite shower room completes the ground floor accommodation.
The first floor is equally impressive, with a magnificent galleried landing leading to a private roof terrace overlooking the beautifully landscaped grounds. The sumptuous principal suite enjoys garden views and features an expansive dressing room together with a luxuriously appointed en-suite bathroom. Four further double bedrooms are arranged across this floor, three benefitting from their own stylish en-suite facilities.
Occupying the second floor, a bright and spacious galleried landing enjoys panoramic views over the rear gardens through a striking picture window. Two further substantial bedroom suites, each with bespoke dressing rooms and elegant en-suite bathrooms, provide superb accommodation for family members or guests.
Externally, the property is approached via an impressive gated carriage driveway, providing extensive parking and access to a substantial double garage. The mature grounds wrap around the property and are a particular feature of the home, with sweeping lawns, established trees and beautifully maintained gardens creating an exceptional setting of privacy and tranquillity.
Despite its secluded position, the property remains conveniently located for the villages of Hale Barns and Hale, renowned for their boutique shops, restaurants and amenities, whilst Altrincham town centre is only a short drive away, offering its vibrant market, excellent transport links and outstanding Grammar Schools.
A truly remarkable family residence of rare quality and distinction, offering exceptional space, privacy and luxury in one of South Manchester's most desirable locations.

- Target investor price — Rent ÷ 1%; the price at which rent would be 1% of price (strong cashflow band).
- Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
- Cost-to-rent — Price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables). Under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed.
- Cashflow — Rent minus mortgage, 10% maintenance, £25/mo compliance. Assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term.
- ROI — Annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).
