388 CHESTER ROAD

An impressive five-bedroom, three-bathroom 1930s family home, extended thoughtfully to the side and offering scope to extend further to the rear. Since 2001, the current owners have lovingly maintained and updated this property, blending period charm with modern living. Set approximately 30 metres back from the road, the house is approached via electric double gates, leading to a block-paved driveway providing parking for six to eight cars. The front garden, framed by mature hedging and lawn, creates an elegant first impression, enhanced by plantation shutters to all windows at the front of the house and an electric blind to the front door.
Stepping inside, the hall is finished with matting, LVT flooring, and wall panelling, immediately setting a tone of quality and style. A downstairs WC is conveniently located beneath the stairs. To the left, a dual-aspect living room with carpeted floors and charming inglenook windows offers a cosy, intimate space, while to the right, a seating area features a bespoke built-in TV unit and sweeping curved 1930s walls. An external door from the dual-aspect living room opens onto the loggia, leading directly out to the patio and rear garden, creating a beautiful connection between indoor and outdoor living. Double doors from the dining area also lead out to the patio, enhancing the home’s flow and versatility.
The heart of the home is the open-plan living kitchen, designed for both entertaining and everyday family life. Featuring granite worktops, soft-close cupboards, and a large seated island with electric sockets, the kitchen is fitted with NEFF ovens, a microwave combi oven, full-size fridge and freezer, and a full-size dishwasher. Deep cupboards and cleverly integrated bin storage provide practical functionality, while sliding doors open onto the patio and garden, creating a seamless transition to outdoor spaces. A side door from the living area leads to the garage and utility, which offers great scope for conversion into a home gym. The property also benefits from a fitted CCTV and alarm system, motion-sensitive security lights around the building, and an electric up-and-over garage door, ensuring both convenience and peace of mind.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom is an impressive suite featuring a Juliette balcony overlooking the garden, fitted wardrobes, bespoke TV unit, and space for both a sofa and a four-poster bed. A dressing area leads through an elegant archway into a luxurious ensuite, beautifully finished with porcelain tiles, his and hers sinks, a large walk-in shower, and built-in vanity units, combining sophistication with everyday practicality. There are three further double bedrooms on this floor, while the family bathroom with a separate WC completes this level. Above, stairs lead up to the converted attic, providing a fifth double bedroom with its own ensuite bathroom and eaves storage, ideal as a guest suite or teenager’s retreat.
The rear garden is a true highlight, reminiscent of a traditional manor lawn, gently sloping towards a neighbouring private pond. Manicured striped lawns, mature trees, and low-level hedging create a wonderful sense of calm and seclusion. A dedicated patio area provides the perfect space for outdoor dining and entertaining, while a brick-built outbuilding with electricity offers excellent storage or workshop potential. There is also a power outlet in the back garden and secure gates on either side of the property, ensuring privacy and safety. This expansive garden offers an idyllic, private retreat, a space to relax, entertain, and enjoy throughout the seasons.
Ideally positioned for families, the home is within easy reach of several highly regarded local schools, including Woodford Primary School, Queensgate Primary, St Paul’s Catholic Primary, and Bramhall High School. Poynton Station is just one mile away, and the property is only a ten-minute drive from the motorway network and Manchester Airport, offering superb connectivity. The location combines community, convenience, and access to outstanding education.
