Description

Occupying an enviable corner position on Osprey Drive, just off Manchester Road, this impressive four bedroom extended, detached home offers generous and versatile family accommodation and the significant advantage of NO ONWARD CHAIN. Ideally positioned for enjoying everything that both Wilmslow and the surrounding Cheshire countryside have to offer, the property is within easy reach of Wilmslow town centre, providing an excellent choice of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, transport links and everyday amenities. The property in brief comprises: a spacious entrance hallway that provides access to the principal living accommodation, the generous living room is positioned to the front of the home and benefits from a feature bay window, creating a bright and welcoming reception space. To the rear, the well-appointed kitchen features a range of wall and base units, complemented by worktop surfaces and attractive views over the garden. The kitchen flows naturally into a separate dining area, offering plenty of room for a family dining table and additional furnishings. This in turn leads through to the upgraded conservatory, with lightweight insulated roof creating a lovely additional reception space all year round with direct views over, and access to, the rear garden. A useful separate utility area provides additional storage and space for a washing machine and dryer, while also giving access to the integral garage and a convenient downstairs WC. To the first floor are four well-proportioned bedrooms, together with a modern family bathroom. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, offering excellent proportions, a feature Juliet balcony and an en-suite shower room. Externally, the property continues to impress. The front provides a well-maintained approach together with off-road parking, while the enclosed rear garden is a real highlight. The rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn and enclosed by mature hedges.
