Description
Alder House is a beautifully presented, modern property set behind electric gates, offering a three-car driveway, double garage and landscaped, fully enclosed gardens wrapping around the side and rear. The home is finished to a high specification throughout, with plantation shutters, tiled and wooden flooring, elegant décor, quality furnishings and natural jute carpets creating a refined yet welcoming feel.
The accommodation opens into a bright and spacious entrance hall with a stylish cloakroom. To the left is the double garage with automatic doors and direct internal access. Beyond the staircase lies the formal living room, an impressive space featuring a Carrera marble hearth with gas fire, ornate cornicing and wooden flooring. This room flows seamlessly into the dining conservatory, with doors opening onto the west-facing rear garden—ideal for enjoying evening sunshine.
The remainder of the ground floor is centred around a superb open-plan living, dining and kitchen space. The lounge and dining areas benefit from French doors leading to the side garden, while the contemporary kitchen is fitted with shaker-style units, black granite work surfaces and a movable island, perfect for informal dining and entertaining. Integrated appliances include a Neff oven, hob, extractor hood, dishwasher and fridge freezer. A fully fitted utility room sits adjacent to the kitchen, with space for a washing machine and tumble dryer and direct access to the rear garden.
To the first floor are four generously proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys northerly views through oversized feature windows, extensive built-in storage and a stylish en suite shower room. Bedroom two also benefits from an en suite, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a modern four-piece family bathroom.
Alder House is a superb example of a high-quality modern home, meticulously styled and maintained, and ideally suited to family living in one of Cheshire’s most sought-after locations.
