Description

Perfectly situated within one of Sandbach’s most prestigious and discreet residential enclaves, Dingle Lane presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial family home combining privacy, elegance and exceptional convenience.
Set well back from the lane within an impressively large and secluded plot, the property enjoys a commanding yet understated presence. A generous frontage provides extensive offroad parking alongside a double garage, all framed by mature planting that affords a high degree of privacy.

The accommodation is introduced by a spacious and welcoming reception hallway, immediately establishing a sense of scale and quality. To the front, the principal sitting room is beautifully appointed, featuring a contemporary media wall with a floating electric fire and excellent natural light. Underfloor heating to parts of the room further enhances comfort. Positioned opposite, a dedicated study offers an ideal space for home working or quiet retreat, complemented by a well presented guest cloakroom.

To the rear, the property opens into an exceptional open plan kitchen, dining and family space, thoughtfully extended to create a light filled and highly functional environment. The bespoke kitchen is centred around a substantial island and finished with sleek cabinetry and premium detailing throughout. A striking glass ceiling above the dining area floods the space with natural light, while fullwidth sliding doors provide a seamless connection to the landscaped gardens beyond.
Underfloor heating runs through key areas, ensuring year round comfort. From this vantage point, open views extend across the bowling green towards Sandbach Park, offering an attractive and everchanging outlook. A generously proportioned utility room adjoins the kitchen, providing excellent additional storage and practicality.

The first floor hosts four well proportioned bedrooms. Bedrooms three and four enjoy peaceful rear facing aspects, with bedroom three benefitting from built in wardrobes. Bedroom two is served by its own ensuite shower room, ideal for guests or older children. The principal bedroom suite forms a luxurious sanctuary, featuring a private ensuite shower room, a dedicated dressing or gym area and a private sauna, creating a truly spa like experience at home. Underfloor heating to both the ensuite and dressing area further enhances the sense of refinement and comfort.

Externally, the gardens have been meticulously landscaped to create a series of elegant and highly usable outdoor spaces. A raised paved terrace provides multiple seating and entertaining areas, perfectly positioned to enjoy the open views. Steps lead down to a manicured lawn with further seating zones and a charming outdoor pizza oven, ideal for alfresco dining. An additional rattan seating area offers a secluded and tranquil spot from which to enjoy the privacy of this exceptional setting.
