8 BROOM ROAD

Large Period Semi-Detached House with potential to improve and add significant value. Very large garden, within easy walking distance of Altrincham’s vibrant Market Quarter and Stamford Park, and steps away from Hale Village. Ample off road parking for 3 cars in total, at the front and REAR of the house.

Realistically priced to reflect that fact that buyers may want to reconfigure the upper floor accommodation to provide a second bathroom facility and/or potential, subject to planning consent, extend the house and enlarge the accommodation at all levels.

Period properties with these attributes are very hard to find and are amongst some of the most sought-after homes in the marketplace. This house ticks all the boxes, so we would strongly recommend that serious buyers waste no time in arranging an early internal inspection.

One of its standout features is the long rear garden that widens into a T-shape at the bottom of the garden, wrapping around on both sides behind the neighbours’ gardens. This provides the opportunity to utilise the additional land to construct a garden room/home office or summerhouse, or a children’s play area or vegetable garden. It’s unusual to have so much garden land this close to Hale and Altrincham.

As illustrated by the attached floor plan, the accommodation is laid out over four floors with versatile living space on the ground and lower ground floor, and four double bedrooms and a bathroom on the upper two floors, in all extending to 1845 square feet of accommodation.

The house has been extended to the rear with the addition of a lovely second sitting room/family room, accessed through the dining kitchen and opening onto the rear patio and garden. This layout will appeal to those who need a family room for a young family and for those who want a restful sitting room with views out to a private garden. The space in the room is enhanced by the vaulted ceiling with built-in Velux roof windows.

The cellar has been converted to living space, used as a teenager’s TV room and is ideal for anyone needing a home office, children’s playroom or additional bedroom; natural light is provided by high-level windows to the front. There is also a separate WC and useful utility/laundry room and underfloor storage.

Outside to the front, the original garden has been laid to hard standing and provides parking for 2 medium sized cars. The single garage at the rear of the house has been removed, but the hard standing remains and offers potential to park a third vehicle, accessed via the shared driveway down the side of the house, which is kept clear by each neighbour.

Testimony to the appeal of the house is the fact that the current owners have been in residence for 30 years, driven not just by the fact that it has been the ideal family home for them, but also the convenience of the location and in the catchment area of the best schools.

As mentioned, the property is located on the south side of Altrincham’s revitalised town centre with its popular market quarter which you can reach on foot within a few minutes’ walk and very close to Altrincham Train and Metrolink station. The Metrolink has high frequency services into Manchester City Centre seven days a week.

Altrincham has a full range of shops and supermarkets that cater for all everyday needs, including a Marks & Spencer food store. The town is a great place to socialise with a huge variety of restaurants and bars and an Everyman Cinema.

Hale Village, which lies at the other end of Byrom Street, is even closer and offers a range of independent shops that cater for all everyday needs. Grocery shopping is well provided for in the village as there is a Tesco, Sainsbury’s, and an M&S food store. There is a village Post Office, chemist, and bakery. The village also offers a range of specialist shops and boutiques, and several restaurants, bars, and takeaways.

For the road commuter, easy access is gained to the Northwest Motorway network with access to both the M6 and M56 within minutes from the house, while Manchester’s International Airport lies only ten minutes away by car.

Whilst the floor plan and photographs accompanying this description will give potential purchasers a feel for the property, only a visit in person will allow buyers to fully appreciate the appeal of this highly desirable home.
