Features and description
An individually designed detached family house of generous proportions standing in grounds approaching one third of an acre. Situated within open countryside and well placed for access to both Hale and Knutsford. Replanned and refurbished to a high standard, the beautifully presented accommodation briefly comprises enclosed porch, entrance hall, dining room, sitting room, living room, living/dining kitchen, utility room, laundry room, office, cloakroom/WC, primary bedroom with en suite shower room/WC, further double bedroom with en suite shower room/WC, two additional double bedrooms and family bathroom/WC. Gas fired central heating and PVCu double glazing. Driveway providing off road parking and detached double garage. Stone paved rear terrace and secluded gardens laid mainly to lawn.
Downings is a unique detached house occupying an enviable position within the Green Belt and with the benefit of exceptional views over undulating countryside. Despite the rural location the shopping centres of Hale and Knutsford are easily accessible and Ashley train station provides a commuter service into Manchester.
Surrounding the property are woodlands and fields and grounds approaching one third of an acre. The setting is tree lined and incorporates a substantial stone paved terrace which is ideal for al fresco entertaining and adjacent expanse of lawn all with the benefit of a high degree of privacy.
Refurbished by the current owners this superbly presented family home offers a high standard of internal fittings and has been carefully replanned for modern living.
Upon entering the feeling of space is apparent and the naturally light reception hall is flanked by a formal dining room and dual aspect sitting room with the focal point of a stunning revealed brick fireplace and wood burning stove. The impressive living/dining kitchen is fitted with Shaker style units complemented by quartz work surfaces and features an outstanding centre island with adequate provision for dining. There is ample space for a seating area with bi-folding windows opening onto the aforementioned terrace and French windows also lead onto the gardens alongside a useful utility room which similarly has external access. The accommodation continues beyond an inner hallway and includes a further living room, generous office and laundry room with walk-in shower. Completing the ground floor is a well appointed cloakroom/WC.
At first floor level there are remarkable far reaching views and the excellent primary suite comprises double bedroom with French windows to a Juliet balcony and luxurious en suite shower room/WC. There is an further double bedroom with Juliet balcony and en suite shower room/WC, two additional double bedrooms and sumptuous family bathroom complete with free standing bath and walk-in shower.
The driveway has provision for ample off road parking and the detached double garage also has the advantage of a remotely operated door.
