Description
Unlike so many other houses of this size and style in this and the surrounding area, the property occupies a generous plot with private gardens to the front, side and rear.
The property has undergone extensive alterations and improvements over the years and offers over 4300 sq ft of accommodation. Whilst the property provides a sleek and stylish fit and finish that will satisfy even the most discerning of purchasers, it retains much of its original charm and elegance.
At ground floor there are two excellent sized reception rooms and a large open plan living/dining/kitchen (20'9 x 23'7) that is very much the 'hub of the house' and has doors opening directly to the rear garden. There is also a welcoming entrance hall, a store room/butler's pantry, a cloak room, a utility room and a ground floor wc.
At first floor there are three double bedrooms including a superb principal bedroom with a rectangular bay window overlooking the front garden. It has its own dressing room and a stylish en suite shower room. The second bedroom also has its own shower room whilst the third bedroom is served by a luxurious family bathroom with free standing bath and double width shower cubicle. There is a further double bedroom with exposed beams and Velux roof light at second floor and an occasional fifth bedroom/playroom with exposed beam work.
At lower ground floor there are four cellar chambers and a wine cellar. Whilst the cellars currently provide invaluable storage space, prospective purchasers may choose to convert the basements to create additional living/leisure space as many neighbouring homeowners have done (subject to the necessary consents).
The property also benefits from a self contained brick built, coach house that offers versatile accommodation that would suit those with dependent relatives who need an additional apartment or for those who are looking for extensive home office or gymnasium space. There is a beautifully appointed open plan living/kitchen at ground floor and a double bedroom and shower room (with laundry room) at first floor.
The property is set well back from the road with a driveway providing off road parking for a number of vehicles. There is a well maintained lawned garden that is fringed by mature trees and hedges that ensure a high level of privacy. To the rear of the property there is a low maintenance artificial lawn and a paved patio that provides a delightful outside entertaining space. Like the front garden, the rear garden is also extremely private with mature trees on the rear boundary forming a pleasing backdrop to the property.
This is a truly beautiful family home that lies within walking distance of both Hale and Altrincham and is in the catchment area of some of Altrincham and Bowdon's very best schools.
