More room for everyone to spread out, somewhere to entertain, a garden for the children, and a location that makes everyday life that little bit easier. This home delivers all of that and more. Situated within easy reach of Poynton village, local schools, and everyday amenities, this beautifully updated four-bedroom semi-detached home offers a surprising amount of space behind its attractive frontage. Thoughtfully improved by the current owners, it is a home that adapts effortlessly to modern family life. The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance hallway that leads into a series of versatile living spaces. At the front of the house, a bay-fronted reception room provides a calm retreat, full of character and natural light. The main living room sits at the heart of the home, centred around a feature fireplace and enjoying direct access to the garden beyond. What makes this property particularly special is its flexibility. Additional reception spaces provide endless possibilities depending on your family's needs. Whether it's a playroom, home office, snug, cinema room, teenage retreat, or hobby space, the layout allows the home to evolve as family life changes. To the rear, the kitchen and dining area naturally becomes the hub of the house. Designed with both everyday living and entertaining in mind, it offers plenty of space for family meals, catching up over coffee, or hosting friends and relatives. A separate utility room and downstairs WC add practicality without compromising on living space. Upstairs, there are four generously sized bedrooms, three of which are excellent doubles with fitted wardrobes. One bedroom conceals a hidden vanity room behind fitted wardrobes — a unique feature that adds a touch of personality and charm. The family bathroom has been finished to an exceptional standard, featuring a separate bath, walk-in shower, and the added luxury of underfloor heating. Outside, the property continues to impress. The driveway provides ample parking for multiple vehicles, while the generous rear garden offers something increasingly difficult to find — genuine outdoor space for the whole family to enjoy. A raised decked seating area provides the perfect spot for summer entertaining, while the lawn beyond offers plenty of room for children to play, football goals to be set up, and family gatherings to unfold. The rear gate opening directly onto the fields beyond creates a wonderful feeling of openness and freedom, extending the sense of space far beyond the garden itself. This is the kind of home that grows with a family. A home with flexible living space, a fantastic garden, and a location that allows you to enjoy everything Poynton has to offer while still having room to breathe. ## Property Photos - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674503) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674504) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674505) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674506) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674507) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674508) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674509) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674510) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674511) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674512) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674513) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674514) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674515) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674516) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674517) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674518) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674519) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674520) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674521) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674522) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674523) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674524) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674525) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674526) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674527) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674528) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674529) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674530) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/89445180/674531) ## Floorplans - ![Floorplan 1](/listings/photos/89445180/674532) - Floorplan 1 ## EPC Graphs - ![EPC 1](/listings/photos/89445180/674533) - EPC 1 ## Sales History *Recorded sales for this property.
