Description

Bala Grove is bowling buyers over with its striking décor, impressive space and immaculate finish, no pun intended! This beautifully presented three-bedroom detached dormer bungalow is a real striker, offering generous accommodation, stylish interiors and a finish that will have you green with envy. Step through the door and you’re immediately welcomed into a spacious entrance hall, complete with elegant panelling, a contemporary glass-panelled staircase and a convenient guest WC. From here, the home really starts to roll. To the right, you’ll find a bright and beautifully finished kitchen, featuring sleek glossy grey cabinetry topped with a white stone-effect worktop, providing plenty of storage and preparation space. Integrated appliances complete the look, creating a seamless and sophisticated finish. Mary Berry, move over, this kitchen is ready for you to bowl up a storm! Straight ahead, the impressive open-plan lounge diner is a real showstopper. With dual-aspect windows flooding the space with natural light, there’s plenty of room to relax, unwind and entertain. The generous dining area comfortably accommodates a large table, making it the perfect spot for family meals and gatherings with friends. And when the weather is on your side, the bifold doors really knock it out of the park, seamlessly connecting the interior with the garden and framing those lovely outdoor views. Downstairs also offers a separate snug, a versatile space that could work equally well as a playroom, home office or cosy retreat. Whatever your lifestyle, there’s plenty of room to play your next shot. Upstairs, the accommodation continues to impress with three bedrooms: two generous doubles and a single, ideal as a nursery, guest bedroom or additional home-working space. The family bathroom serves the bedrooms beautifully, with both a separate bath and a walk-in shower. Outside, the property is every bit as impressive. The neatly manicured garden features a slate patio, lush green lawn and two undercover seating areas, giving you the perfect place to enjoy the outdoors while having a little protection from the elements. Fenced and secure, the garden is brought to life with mature shrubs and established planting. A single garage, tucked behind closed gates, provides excellent additional storage and comes complete with plumbing and electrics, offering useful space for appliances. There’s also a generous red brick-paved driveway with parking for multiple vehicles, so there’s no need to worry about fighting for a spot. And the location? Another perfect strike. Situated on the outskirts of Cheadle in the Staffordshire Moorlands, Bala Grove enjoys the best of both worlds: a welcoming community atmosphere alongside an excellent range of amenities. Supermarkets, independent shops, cafés and restaurants are all close by, while families are well catered for with a choice of highly regarded primary and secondary schools. For commuters, the A50 provides convenient access further afield, with regular bus services connecting Cheadle to surrounding towns and cities. When it’s time to step away from the daily grind, you’re perfectly placed to explore the wider frame. Beautiful countryside surrounds the area, offering plenty of opportunities for scenic walks and outdoor adventures, while popular attractions including Alton Towers, Oakley’s Farm Shop, Churnet Valley Railway and Peak Wildlife Park are all within easy reach. Ready to be bowled over? Don’t let this one slip through the gutter, book your viewing ASAP and get ready to start the next striking chapter at Bala Grove!
