Set back from the road with plenty of off road parking, the property immediately gives a sense of privacy and ease, making it ideal for both busy households and those seeking a calmer, more refined setting. Step inside and you’re welcomed by a bright hallway with a downstairs WC, where the home naturally branches into two distinct living spaces. To one side is the lounge, a peaceful, cosy retreat which also connects through internal French doors to the open plan kitchen, living and dining area. This creates a choice of flow: keep the lounge separate for quiet evenings or open everything up when entertaining. The open plan space spans the full width of the rear of the property, with Velux windows drawing in natural light from above and bi fold doors opening out onto the garden, giving the whole room an exclusive, airy feel. It’s a space designed for everyday living, relaxed weekends and effortless hosting. A separate utility room sits just off the kitchen and leads directly into the garage, keeping practicalities neatly tucked away. Upstairs, the property offers three well proportioned bedrooms, with bedrooms 1 and 2 featuring Velux windows that bring in soft natural light and enhance the modern Dorma aesthetic. A sleek shower room completes the top floor, providing convenience and style in equal measure. Outside, the garden is a genuine highlight and a key selling point. Generous in size and cleverly zoned, it offers a raised decking and seating area at the top, perfect for outdoor dining or evening relaxation, while at the bottom of the garden sits a summer house currently used as a gym. This versatile space could just as easily become a home office, studio or creative retreat, giving you flexibility to shape it around your lifestyle. The location adds even more appeal. Daisybank Drive places you within easy reach of Sandbach town centre, known for its independent shops, cafés, restaurants and the historic cobbled market square. Highly regarded schools are close by, along with green spaces and countryside walks including the Wheelock Rail Trail. Commuters benefit from excellent connections, with the M6 (J17) just minutes away and Sandbach Station offering routes to Crewe, Manchester and beyond. It’s a setting that balances convenience, community and calm, a perfect blend for modern living. ## Property Photos - ![Picture No. 34](/listings/photos/174424247/468389) - Picture No. 34 - ![Picture No. 24](/listings/photos/174424247/468390) - Picture No. 24 - ![Picture No. 46](/listings/photos/174424247/468391) - Picture No. 46 - ![Picture No. 12](/listings/photos/174424247/468392) - Picture No. 12 - ![Picture No. 39](/listings/photos/174424247/468393) - Picture No. 39 - ![Picture No. 14](/listings/photos/174424247/468394) - Picture No. 14 - ![Picture No. 22](/listings/photos/174424247/468395) - Picture No. 22 - ![Picture No. 16](/listings/photos/174424247/468396) - Picture No. 16 - ![Picture No. 23](/listings/photos/174424247/468397) - Picture No. 23 - ![Picture No. 25](/listings/photos/174424247/468398) - Picture No. 25 - ![Picture No. 26](/listings/photos/174424247/468399) - Picture No. 26 - ![Picture No. 17](/listings/photos/174424247/468400) - Picture No. 17 - ![Picture No. 31](/listings/photos/174424247/468401) - Picture No. 31 - ![Picture No. 33](/listings/photos/174424247/468402) - Picture No. 33 - ![Picture No. 30](/listings/photos/174424247/468403) - Picture No. 30 - ![Picture No. 15](/listings/photos/174424247/468404) - Picture No. 15 - ![Picture No. 02](/listings/photos/174424247/468405) - Picture No. 02 - ![Picture No. 04](/listings/photos/174424247/468406) - Picture No. 04 - ![Picture No. 05](/listings/photos/174424247/468407) - Picture No. 05 - ![Picture No. 06](/listings/photos/174424247/468408) - Picture No. 06 - ![Picture No. 07](/listings/photos/174424247/468409) - Picture No. 07 - ![Picture No. 08](/listings/photos/174424247/468410) - Picture No. 08 - ![Picture No. 13](/listings/photos/174424247/468411) - Picture No. 13 - ![Picture No. 37](/listings/photos/174424247/468412) - Picture No. 37 - ![Picture No. 38](/listings/photos/174424247/468413) - Picture No. 38 - ![Picture No. 40](/listings/photos/174424247/468414) - Picture No. 40 - ![Picture No. 42](/listings/photos/174424247/468415) - Picture No. 42 - ![Picture No. 36](/listings/photos/174424247/468416) - Picture No. 36 - ![Picture No. 43](/listings/photos/174424247/468417) - Picture No. 43 - ![Picture No. 47](/listings/photos/174424247/468418) - Picture No. 47 ## Floorplans - ![Floorplan](/listings/photos/174424247/468419) - Floorplan ## EPC Graphs - ![EPC Rating Graph](/listings/photos/174424247/468420) - EPC Rating Graph ## FENSA Certificates This property has 2 FENSA certificate(s) on record. ### FENSA Certificate #3456139 - **Address:** 1 Daisybank Drive, SANDBACH, CW11 4JR - **Certificate Issued:** 06/02/2006 - **Work Completed:** 17/01/2006 - **Items:** 5 window(s) ### FENSA Certificate #2637245 - **Address:** 1 Daisybank Drive, SANDBACH, CW11 4JR - **Certificate Issued:** 18/04/2005 - **Work Completed:** 22/03/2005 - **Items:** 1 door(s) ## Sales History *Recorded sales for this property.
