Description

Situated on the perfect commuter belt for Manchester and less then three-miles from the M60, this could be the ideal property if you are looking to get settled into a quiet residential location, whilst keeping within easy commuting distance of the major local hubs. The South Facing rear garden is a great sun trap for those summer days and is perfect for children (or Chickens!) alike.

Locally there are multiple Outstanding Primary (St Kentigern's) and Good Secondary (Whalley Range) Schools for those keen on ensuring a good level of education for their children, and you can find a number of local eateries and bars along Wilbraham Road, only a stroll from the house itself. If it is outdoor space you are looking for the Platt Fields Park is almost directly opposite, and to the rear of the house you have the Fallowfield Allotments. The owners currently have a plot here, and one can be requested through a waiting list for the new owners.

Moving onto the house itself, it is a property that stands out from the crowd, a wide and quirky shape, the house is full of nooks and crannies that have been used to maximise the internal space, whilst also maintaining the original charm of the building.

Access into the house is through an external porch, always handy for muddy shoes, wet dogs and shopping!
You enter into the main hallway, which is an incredible room in of itself. A return staircase leads up to the first floor, with a floor-to-ceiling Percy the Park Keeper (90s flashback) mural done so tastefully, that it adds to the decor without being overbearing.

Off to the right of the hallway you firstly come across the main living room space. When I first spoke too the owner they commented on how many different layouts they'd had in this room, and it is easy to see why. There's a feature fire, bay window, and ample seating room around, the perfect family space.

Across the hall is the second reception room. Currently utilised as the children's entertainment space, it could be a dining room if needed, or perhaps you just need a place to step away from the madness!

Completing the main downstairs space is the large kitchen/diner to the end of the house. It is a beautiful spot to overlook the garden, and may spot some chickens. Fitted units line three of the walls, creating plenty of work surface space, excellent storage and a great entertaining spot if you have guests. Talking about maximising the space, off the kitchen is the downstairs WC and utility space, helping to keep all of the main white goods separate from the house itself, and the WC is always handy if you have kids or guests!

Externally you will find a really beautifully maintained rear garden space, with a patio area accessed via either the kitchen or second reception room, grassed area to the rear and then a further garage, which has also been cleverly converted into a part office space, perfect if you need a working from home space away from the main home.
A veranda covers the back part of the garage, creating a lovely seating/BBQ area, which also hides a secret sandpit area for the children!

There is further gated parking in front of the garage, handy if you are heading away and looking to keep the car more securely locked away.

Heading on the the upstairs of the property you will find three really well-proportioned bedrooms, without your usual box room space. The second and third bedrooms sit over the front aspect of the house, with the second being an easy double, and the third being a single, but with space then for your storage and/or cupboards.

The landing is lit by a beautiful stained glass window, a real piece of art, that floods the space with a mosaic of light. Stepping across the landing there is the main double bedroom, the owner stated they loved the views over the allotments, and there is ample space for fitted wardrobes and a king double bed.

Finishing the house is the main bathroom, a retro tiled affair that fits naturally into the kaleidoscope feel of the house, with bath and shower over, WC, sink and boiler unit.
