Description
Step through the front door into a bright, airy hallway that immediately sets a warm, inviting tone. Natural light streams through well-placed windows, highlighting the generous proportions found throughout. From here, the flow of the home unfolds with effortless ease.
To the front, the expansive living room is bathed in daylight thanks to a striking bay window. This space is ideal for both lively family gatherings and quiet evenings in, offering a comfortable retreat all year round. A convenient ground-floor WC and a large storage closet for coats, shoes, and everyday essentials are thoughtfully positioned just off the hall. There is also useful storage beneath the stairs, perfect for tucking away household items or creating a hidden nook.
At the heart of the home lies a spacious kitchen/diner, well designed for everyday family life. It provides ample room for both cooking and dining, with plumbing for a dishwasher, space for a full-size fridge-freezer, a six-ring gas hob, and a double oven. The generous dining area comfortably accommodates a large table, making it ideal for relaxed family meals or entertaining friends. An adjoining utility room adds further functionality, with space for both a washer and a dryer, keeping the main kitchen beautifully uncluttered.
Upstairs, the master suite offers a private sanctuary, complete with a spacious en-suite shower room and ample room for a dressing area or a cosy reading nook. Three further double bedrooms each include integrated wardrobes and plenty of additional space for desks or seating areas, ideal for children, guests, or a dedicated home office. The stylish family bathroom is cleverly designed with a generous dual-section layout, providing both a bath and a separate shower zone for busy mornings or relaxing evenings.
The rear garden is a beautifully landscaped haven, combining lawn and patio areas to create a private outdoor escape. Whether you’re hosting summer barbecues, letting children play safely, or simply unwinding with a coffee, this garden offers year-round enjoyment. An integral garage provides secure parking or valuable storage and is fully fitted with light and power, making it equally suited for hobbies or a workshop space. The driveway comfortably accommodates two vehicles, ensuring convenient off-road parking.
Families will appreciate the outstanding selection of nearby schools, including Mablins Lane Primary, St Michael’s Academy, Leighton Academy, and Oakfield Lodge, while secondary options such as Sir William Stanier, Ruskin High, and Malbank are all easily reached. For further education, both South Cheshire College and the Engineering College are close at hand. Local shops, leisure facilities, and excellent transport links further enhance the home’s appeal.
