Constructed to a traditional double fronted Edwardian design this fine semi-detached family house dates from circa 1912 with the original character complemented by modern enhancements and tasteful décor throughout. Typical of the era the property features attractive elevations with tall bay windows and internally benefits from decorative mouldings, panelled doors and high ceilings.

The superbly proportioned accommodation is beautifully presented and upon entering the feeling of space is apparent. Approached beyond an enclosed porch with recently installed Accoya wood front door set within a red brick archway and a leaded light hardwood door which leads onto an impressive entrance hall with turned spindle balustrade staircase leading up to a galleried landing on the second floor. With the focal point of a marble fireplace surround there is an elegant sitting room with unusual bay window creating a naturally light interior and the separate formal dining room opens onto a stunning breakfast kitchen through double opening bi-folding doors. The contemporary kitchen is well appointed with in-frame units and exquisite Dekton work-surfaces alongside a substantial centre island with ample seating areas and a range of integrated appliances. The rear hall provides access to the cloakroom/WC and a paved terrace which is ideal for entertaining during the summer months.

The lower ground floor has been improved to deliver a variety of storage areas and importantly includes a useful utility room with adjacent WC.

At first floor level the spacious primary bedroom is fitted with bespoke furniture and a turret style bay with charming window seat. There are two further excellent double bedrooms and generous family bathroom complete with separate shower enclosure. To the second floor a double bedroom and single bedroom allow commanding views over the surrounding area and are served by a bathroom/WC.

Gas fired central heating has been installed together with double glazing.

Externally the wide block paved driveway has parking for two cars beyond remotely operated wrought iron gates and the landscaped grounds are laid mainly to lawn. Great care has been taken to maximise the sun throughout the day and the westerly facing rear aspect enjoys sunshine into the evening. The well tended gardens are thoughtfully designed with well stocked borders and a variety of mature trees.

Positioned in the South Hale Conservation Area this helps ensure changes respect the area’s character and appearance and protects the local historic architecture. Ideally located just a few hundred yards from the village of Hale with its range of individual shops and fashionable restaurants and railway station providing a commuter service into Manchester. The property also lies within the catchment area of highly regarded primary and secondary schools and is equally well placed for the surrounding motorway network and Manchester international airport.
