Description
Sitting on a generous corner plot, it enjoys gardens on all sides, which gives it a lovely open feel. Step into the entrance hall and you’re greeted by a great sense of space, with access to the main living room, the converted garage and the open plan kitchen and living area.
The ground floor is really flexible and works well for a family. The current owners have converted the garage into an extra room, which they use as a utility, study and occasional guest bedroom. The main living room sits at the front of the house, while the open plan kitchen and living space at the rear offers a second area to relax.
This rear space is particularly impressive. It’s bright and spacious, overlooking the garden, with two sets of French doors opening out onto a large, decked area. The kitchen is fitted with sleek gloss white units and complementary worktops, giving it a clean, contemporary look that blends into the room and really enhances that open plan feel. There’s plenty of space for dining, and there’s also an area currently used as a playroom or second sitting area.
Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, three of which are great sized doubles. The main bedroom benefits from its own en-suite, which isn’t something you often find in these homes, and there’s also a recently refitted family bathroom.
Outside, it’s ideal for families. The large, low maintenance decked area leads down to a lawned garden, creating plenty of space. There’s a barked children’s play area and smart resin finished side sections that continue from the driveway. At the front, the property sits within the cul-de-sac with no through traffic, along with a recently laid resin driveway.
Overall, it’s a bright, spacious home inside and out, in a really great spot on this popular estate.
Location
Stanley Avenue sits within a well-established residential part of Marple that’s especially popular with families. There’s a local play park just around the corner, making it easy for younger children, and Marple Hall School is also close by, keeping the school run simple.
You’re also well placed for green space. Chadkirk Country Estate and the nearby River Goyt offer woodland walks, riverside paths and open space all within easy reach of the house.
