Description

An impressive, detached modern residence extending to nearly 5,000 sq ft, offering beautifully presented, spacious and well-balanced accommodation throughout. The property showcases exceptional exposed oak timber work, both internally and externally, and stands within large, mature, gated gardens and grounds extending to approximately 0.62 acres, benefitting from being one of the largest plots on this section of Mereside Road.
The accommodation comprises a splendid double-height reception/dining hall, a double-aspect drawing room with feature fireplace, snug, and a superb kitchen/breakfast/family room, complemented by a utility room and boot room, with a cloakroom/WC. The integral double garage offers excellent potential for conversion into an additional reception room, subject to the necessary consents.
To the first floor is an impressive galleried landing, a luxurious principal bedroom suite with both front and rear balconies enjoying stunning views across the open countryside to the front of the property, three further bedrooms (two with en-suite facilities), and a family bathroom featuring a sauna and steam shower, with large fifth bedroom located on the second floor.
A gated driveway provides ample off-road parking, while the beautifully landscaped gardens feature an expansive lawn and an excellent entertaining terrace. To the rear, a range of high-quality detached outbuildings that have been newly refurbished by the current owners to create a versatile space that could be used as a fantastic gym, or home office, with a W.C, next to this is a substantial laundry room and boiler room. Additional sheds provide further dry storage, and a covered pergola/deck creates a superb al fresco entertaining area.
Mereside Road is an extremely sought-after address, with this particular section enjoying lovely open views to the front. It is one of the area’s most prestigious residential locations, ideally positioned between Hale/Altrincham and Knutsford, and close to the renowned Mere Golf Resort.
