Description
A charming storm porch opens into a welcoming entrance hall, where an elegant turning staircase rises to the upper floors. The heart of the home is the superb open-plan living dining room, an impressive dual-aspect space designed for modern family living and entertaining. The bay-fronted living area features attractive leaded light windows and a striking period-style fireplace, creating a warm and inviting focal point, whilst the generous dining area enjoys double doors opening directly onto the private courtyard garden, effortlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. The ground floor is completed by a fitted kitchen with granite worksurfaces and range of integrated appliances.
The first floor offers two generous double bedrooms, both benefitting from impressive ceiling heights that further enhance the sense of space. A beautifully appointed family bathroom features a contemporary three-piece white suite, elegant travertine tiling, and a separate walk-in shower.
Occupying the second floor are two further double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a particularly characterful retreat, showcasing an exposed brick chimney breast, useful eaves storage and twin Velux windows flooding the room with natural light. The fourth bedroom enjoys delightful, elevated views across the chimney tops towards the vibrant town centre.
Externally, the enclosed front garden provides an attractive seating area, ideal for enjoying the afternoon sun, with a pathway leading to the storm porch. To the rear, the private courtyard garden offers an excellent setting for outdoor entertaining and relaxation, together with a brick-built utility outhouse and a separate storage cupboard housing the recently updated central heating boiler.
Bathed in natural light throughout and offering exceptional versatility across three well-planned floors, this superb period home successfully combines timeless character with modern practicality, making it an outstanding choice for families seeking spacious accommodation in one of Knutsford’s more desirable and convenient locations.
