Constructed during the Edwardian era, this fine individual detached residence stands within delightful grounds approaching one third of an acre and benefits from a wealth of period features all of which combine to create an outstanding property of character with a naturally light interior. Although a comfortable family home with accommodation extending to 3,700 sq ft there is an opportunity to re-plan and re-model to individual taste.
The location is ideal, being positioned between the town centre of Wilmslow with its wide range of shops, restaurants and train station (providing a commuter service into Manchester plus a link to Birmingham and London), and the village of Alderley Edge with its range of fashionable shops, restaurants and bars.
The living space is mainly arranged over two floors and includes an impressive entrance hall with decorative fireplace and provides access to each of the reception rooms. Positioned toward the front there is an elegant sitting room with the focal point of a period style fireplace surround and bay windows to a dual aspect. The adjacent family room opens onto the stone paved terrace which is ideal for entertaining during the summer months and the dining room also enjoys views across the gardens. A spacious breakfast kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of units alongside integrated appliances and there is an adjoining utility room. In addition, the cloakroom and WC are complemented by a separate shower room. Completing the ground floor, the rear hall leads onto a WC and boiler room.
At first floor level the excellent primary suite comprises generous double bedroom with fitted wardrobes and bathroom/WC complete with twin wash basins and separate shower enclosure. The guest suite also benefits from a shower room/WC and three further double bedrooms are served by the family bathroom and WC.
To the second floor there is a useful study which may prove invaluable for those who choose to work from home and a well proportioned loft room which although not converted has previously been used as a games room.
Gas fired central heating has been installed together with double/secondary glazing.
Set well back and superbly screened from the carriageway the gardens are predominately at the front with a southerly aspect to enjoy the sunshine throughout the day. The driveway continues to a detached double garage at the rear with an additional parking area and expanse of lawn to the perimeter.
A rare opportunity to acquire a superb family home with great potential.
