Description

The property has been thoughtfully extended and retains a plethora of original features, including ornate cornicing, sash windows, and decorative fireplaces, which combine to create a truly characterful residence. The spacious and versatile accommodation is arranged over four floors, with three elegant reception rooms providing ample space for both formal entertaining and relaxed family living. The welcoming entrance hall leads to a generous living room with feature bay-window, a separate dining room, and an additional recently extended garden room with vaulted ceiling and modern shower room, each benefiting from high ceilings and an abundance of natural light. The well-appointed kitchen offers direct access to the garden and presents superb scope for further enhancement, allowing the next owner to create their dream culinary space. Upstairs, four double bedrooms provide comfortable and flexible accommodation for family members or guests, complemented by a family bathroom. This impressive home is ideal for those seeking a property with architectural distinction and excellent potential to add value through sympathetic modernisation or extension, subject to the necessary permissions.

This superb home is set within an attractive and mature partly walled garden, offering a tranquil and private retreat from the bustle of town life. The garden is predominantly laid to lawn, interspersed with established shrubs, flowering borders, and specimen trees, creating a delightful setting for outdoor relaxation or entertaining. A paved terrace provides the perfect spot for al fresco dining during the warmer months, while the garden’s orientation ensures plenty of sunlight throughout the day. To the front of the house, a well-maintained driveway provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles and leads to a detached garage, offering additional storage or secure parking.
With its rare combination of period elegance, generous outside space, and prime location close to Wilmslow’s excellent amenities, this property represents a unique opportunity to acquire a truly special family home.
The sale of this property is subject to grant of probate. Please seek an update from the branch with regards to the potential timeframes involved.
