## Description

An architectural triumph of classical symmetry and contemporary scale, this majestic residence stands as one of the finest family homes in Bowdon's most coveted enclave. Spanning around 6,400 sq. ft. across three meticulously planned floors, the property marries the grand proportions of the Georgian era with the effortless flow required for modern luxury living.

The experience begins at the striking portico entrance, leading into a grand reception hall that immediately establishes a sense of occasion. The ground floor is a masterclass in layout: a refined drawing room and formal dining room offer sophisticated spaces for hosting, while a sprawling bespoke kitchen and family hub serves as the soul of the home. A dedicated entertainment room, practical utility, and cloakroom complete a floor designed for both high-profile entertaining and quiet family retreats.

The upper levels are a sanctuary of space. The principal suite covers a significant area of the first floor itself, featuring a charming balcony, a bespoke dressing room, and a spa-inspired en suite. Five/six additional bedrooms (four with private en suites) ensure effortless comfort for family and guests alike. For those prioritizing wellness and productivity, a professional-grade gymnasium and wood-panelled study offer quiet zones away from the main living areas.

Externally, a gated carriage driveway provides a grand sense of arrival, leading to a detached double garage with an integrated gardeners store. The grounds are a rare find: expansive level lawns framed by stone-flagged entertaining terraces and architectural lighting; a private oasis for alfresco summer evenings.

Positioned on one of the region's most prestigious roads, the property offers a rare blend of total privacy and village convenience. A short, leafy stroll brings you to the vibrant hearts of both Hale and Altrincham.

Families are drawn here for the high standard of education; the property sits within the catchment for the country's leading grammar schools, including Altrincham Grammar, alongside prestigious independents like St Ambrose and Bowdon Church.

EPC Rating: B
