## Description

This beautifully presented 4 bed detached is located in one of the most popular and prestigious pockets of Altrincham. It lies within half a mile of the town centre and within a couple of minutes walk of the open greenery of John Leigh Park.

The ground floor accommodation is arranged around a welcoming entrance hall with attractive engineered wood flooring. The 'hub of the house' is a magnificent 500 sq ft open plan living/dining/kitchen where two sets of aluminium bi-folding doors lead directly to the delightful south facing rear garden. The kitchen itself is fitted with a range of high quality base and eye-level units with granite work surfaces and a matching island unit. 

There is a range of integrated appliances, including: a wine cooler, Miele slim-line dishwasher, full sized fridge and freezer, recessed induction hob with downdraw extractor, Gaggenau microwave oven, Gaggenau oven with plate warmer under                        and a recessed sink with Quooker sparkling water and boiling water mixer tap over.

There is also an excellent sized sitting room with bay window overlooking the front garden, a cloaks/wc, a pantry and a utility room.

At first floor, there is a superb principal bedroom that measures an impressive 16'5 x 12'8 and the sense of space is accentuated by the vaulted ceiling. The principal bedroom has its own stylish en suite shower room, as does the second bedroom that is another impressive suite with French doors and a Juliet balcony overlooking the gardens below. The third and fourth bedrooms are also generous doubles and are served by the luxurious family bathroom.

The property occupies a large plot and is accessed via secure electric gates. The house is set well back from the road with a gravelled driveway providing off road parking and turning space for several vehicles. To the rear of the property, the enclosed lawned gardens are incredibly private and enjoy a south facing aspect. A beautifully laid patio extends the full width of the house and provides a pleasant outdoor entertaining space. There is also a brick built garage.

This is a fantastic family home in a convenient setting close to the town centre and some of Altrincham's best schools.
