Description

PLOT 10 - THE HARLEQUIN

At 2,468 square feet, the double-fronted Harlequin is a stunning 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom luxury family home. Its full height feature windowed entrance opens into a generous hall, off which are three reception rooms, the largest being the kitchen/family/dining room, with two sets of sliding folding doors to the private garden.

The first floor offers four generously proportioned double bedrooms, two of which benefit from stylish en-suite facilities. The principal suite is particularly impressive, featuring a dedicated dressing room, formerly the fifth bedroom which could easily be reinstated if required. The property also benefits from a detached double garage.

Swansmere is an exclusive development of 17 luxury homes in the beautiful rural setting of Mere – within easy reach of Knutsford, one of Cheshire’s most desirable locations, featuring the National Trust’s glorious Tatton Park right on its doorstep.

On the site of the former Swan Hotel at Bucklow Hill and adjacent to one of the best postcodes in the area, Swansmere consists of just 17 properties – 14 stunning detached homes, and 3 mews houses created from the original outbuildings.

Life here promises the very best the county has to offer, with plentiful restaurants, bars, shops and more nearby, together with outstanding schools and family activities, plus easy road and rail access to Manchester and the rest of the region beyond.

LOCATION

This quiet rural location is at one end of prestigious Mereside Road, long one of the area’s best addresses, where it meets the old Chester Road – again, a very desirable place to live. The nearest town is Knutsford, renowned for its excellent range of shops, restaurants and bars, and the fashionable destinations of Bowdon, Hale and Altrincham are also within easy reach.

Just a short drive away is the M56, offering excellent access to the motorway network, Manchester Airport and Manchester city centre. Local rail connections are via Ashley, Knutsford or Hale, which also benefits from the Metrolink tram service.

The picturesque villages of Lymm and Rostherne are nearby too, along with two of the region’s biggest National Trust properties, Tatton Park and Dunham Massey.

OUR HERITAGE

PH Property Holdings Ltd was founded over 25 years ago and quickly established a reputation for building the highest quality homes in the very best locations for the most discerning clients. 

From listed barn conversions to the recreation of an English Country Estate, we’ve built some of the finest homes in Cheshire, and in 2005 we extended our philosophy to Port Andratx, one of Mallorca’s most exclusive and glamorous locations where we’ve created some of the most spectacular villas in the Mediterranean.

We’re now focusing our attention on more traditional family homes. Drawing on the wealth of experience and expertise gained operating in the upper echelons of the housing market, we’re bringing new levels of style and sophistication to a much wider but equally discerning audience.

We pride ourselves on our ability to offer levels of service and quality which are second to none within our industry. Every home we build is treated as if it were for our own occupation. Working alongside our award winning architects and designers, we spend hours painstakingly revising design details until they are just right.

This broad depth and range of skills has seen PH Homes grow into one of the most successful house building companies operating today.
