Description

Set on one of Wilmslow’s most sought-after lanes and occupying a beautifully landscaped plot of approximately 0.5 acres, this substantial early-twentieth-century detached home offers exceptional space, privacy and flexibility for modern family living, with open views over adjoining farmland.
The accommodation is generous and well proportioned throughout, with 9’ high ceilings, original features and an excellent flow. A welcoming entrance hall leads to multiple reception rooms, all offering flexible family use, including a formal drawing room, a snug/playroom, and additional living spaces suited to home working or family living.
The kitchen sits at the heart of the house and has been designed with both practicality and scale in mind. It features granite worktops, LVT flooring, high-quality integrated appliances and a large peninsula for informal dining. A substantial pantry provides excellent additional storage, while a separate utility room keeps everyday appliances neatly out of sight. The utility gives direct internal access to the double garage, which is fitted with an electric door.
The kitchen opens into a spacious, light-filled family living area with a large roof light and 4 metre full height bi-fold doors opening to the elevated limestone terrace, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living and making the most of the stunning views beyond. This area works equally well for everyday family use and larger gatherings.
The upper floor provides six well-proportioned double bedrooms, including a generous principal suite with fitted wardrobes and ensuite bathroom with Villeroy & Boch fittings. Additional bedrooms benefit from fitted storage, attractive outlooks over the gardens or surrounding countryside, and access to further bathrooms finished to a high standard. There is also extensive loft storage.
Externally, the property is approached via a gravel driveway with iron gates, providing parking for 4-5 cars and an EV charging point. The double garage offers further secure parking or storage. The gardens are a particular feature, wrapping around the house and laid mainly to lawn with mature trees, shrubs and planting. The gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped to create distinct areas for entertaining, family life and relaxation, all enjoying an excellent degree of privacy and strong visual connection to the house. A detached garden studio provides excellent flexibility, ideal for home working, a gym, creative space or teenage den.
Browns Lane sits little over a mile north of Wilmslow, one of the region’s most desirable locations. Wilmslow station offers frequent, fast services to London – in under two hours - and Manchester – in under twenty minutes, and Manchester Airport is around a 10-15 minute drive. The area benefits from an excellent range of schooling, including highly regarded local state schools and a broad selection of nearby private schools.
Kenilworth is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial period home on one of Wilmslow’s premier roads, offering space, privacy and modern family functionality, all within easy reach of the town centre, but with open views and a semi-rural setting.
