Description
A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and beautifully presented period residence offering four bedrooms, three reception rooms, and two bathrooms, all set on an impressive south-west-facing plot with off-road parking for six or more vehicles. Located just a 30-second stroll from the vibrant Cheadle Village, this home perfectly balances timeless charm with contemporary family living, and offers excellent potential to extend, both upwards and outwards (subject to planning).
From the moment you step into the welcoming, matted porch, complete with fitted matting, and through into the bright, open hallway, it’s clear this home has been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully improved. The ground floor features elegant porcelain tiled flooring throughout, providing a seamless and stylish backdrop to the spacious interior.
To the front of the property, the living room retains beautiful original features, including a bay stained-glass window, enhanced by high ceilings that amplify the sense of space and light. A separate sitting room at the rear of the home provides a warm and inviting retreat with its walnut fireplace and electric fire. French doors open out to the patio area and natural light fills the space from the South facing garden. Adjacent, is the extended open-plan dining kitchen has been recently repainted and offers a sociable space perfect for family gatherings. It features a Belling gas hob, ample storage, space for a dining area for family tea's and get togethers and direct access to the rear garden.

The contemporary family bathroom is complete with a bath, a walk-in shower, and integrated storage units, while a separate WC adds everyday practicality.
The second floor has been converted to create a versatile loft space, currently used as a fourth bedroom with generous built-in and eaves storage. An w/c with plumbing ready for a washing facility such as a shower adds further flexibility, ensuring it's the perfect guest suite while a study area enjoys lovely open views, making it ideal for working from home.
Outside, the property occupies a substantial south-west-facing plot, with a wide driveway accommodating multiple vehicles, a detached single garage, currently used for storage and beautifully maintained gardens. The rear garden is a true highlight - a tranquil and private setting with established trees including a pear, plum and two quince trees, a vegetable patch, colourful fuchsia bushes and a beautiful pink magnolia tree outlining a great patio area. Whether you’re relaxing with family, entertaining friends, or enjoying a summer barbecue, this space is perfect for making the most of outdoor living.
The Current Owners Love:
It is a great place to live with everything a few minutes walk from shops to restaurants and cafes. The Doctors surgery is round the corner also.
In the 20 plus years we have lived here we have had no issues or problems. We have gone abroad for weeks at a time and never been concerned about the security of our home
The garden is a great space. There is nothing better than relaxing in the garden , unwinding with family and friends or just enjoying a barbecue.
We Have Noticed:
Fabulous Value for Money with real potential to build out and up even further.
A great loft conversion with a large bedroom, ensuite and office space.
A stone's throw away to Cheadle Village, Cheadle Hulme Village & Train Station, Didsbury Tram station, all motorway links, great schools, John Lewis/Sainsbury's David Lloyd. So central for everything.
