Description

Rectify your property search with this stunning four-bedroom detached dream on Rectory Gardens, Talke! Tucked away on a quiet and highly desirable cul-de-sac, this beautifully presented home offers space, style, and everything a growing family could wish for. Boasting exceptional kerb appeal, the property benefits from two generous driveways—one positioned opposite and another to the front and side—providing ample parking for multiple vehicles. Step inside to a welcoming entrance hall with convenient under-stairs storage, leading to a bright and spacious dining room at the front, perfect for entertaining guests or enjoying family meals. To the rear, the impressive lounge is a true showstopper, featuring patio doors opening onto the garden and a charming fireplace with a multi-fuel stove, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The modern kitchen is equally stunning, complete with sleek high-gloss cabinetry, a built-in Neff Slide&Hide oven, and a drinks chiller, while a separate laundry room offers additional storage and space to keep appliances neatly tucked away, with access to the rear garden. A handy downstairs WC completes the ground floor. Upstairs, the sense of space continues with four generously sized bedrooms, including a superb master with fitted wardrobes and a stylish en-suite shower room, alongside three further well-proportioned bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom featuring a luxurious Jacuzzi bath with shower attachment. Outside, the low-maintenance tiered garden is designed for both relaxation and entertaining, with a pebbled area, paved patio, and decorative flowerbeds, as well as two useful outbuildings for storage. The property is further enhanced by a single garage with electric and roller shutter door. This is a truly exceptional home in a sought-after location.
