Property Description
An attractive late Victorian semi detached family house positioned less than a ½ mile distant from the village of Hale. Retaining much of the original character the superbly proportioned accommodation briefly comprises enclosed porch, two spacious reception rooms with feature fireplaces, fitted kitchen opening onto a conservatory, basement with utility and bathroom/WC, two excellent double bedrooms, generous single bedroom and shower room/WC. Gas fired central heating and double glazing. Landscaped rear gardens. Wide driveway providing off road parking.
This late Victorian semi detached family house occupies an enviable position standing within mature grounds and surrounded by a variety of period properties all of which combines to create an attractive setting.
Approximately a ½ mile distant is the village of Hale with its range of individual shops, restaurants and wine bars and railway station providing a commuter service into Manchester. Just a few hundred yards to the south are walks through the River Bollin Valley which forms part of the North Cheshire Greenbelt. The location is also ideal being within the catchment of highly regarded schools and there is easy access to the surrounding network of motorways.
Typical of the era it is difficult to appreciate from the exterior the extent of the accommodation within and much of the original character remains with tall ceilings, bay windows and panelled doors.
The entrance to the accommodation is planned to create a spacious reception area with the original panelled front door leading to a hallway with decorative coved cornice complemented by a Victorian tiled floor. There are two reception rooms of generous size both of which benefit from period style fireplace surrounds. The sitting room opens onto a paved rear terrace through double opening French windows whilst the living room features a tall bay window and is conveniently positioned adjacent to the fitted kitchen. The naturally light conservatory enjoys delightful views across the landscaped gardens and provides ample space for a breakfast table. The basement is arranged to form a useful utility area plus substantial storage areas alongside a bathroom/WC.
At first floor level the principle bedroom has a range of fitted furniture and enjoys commanding tree lined views. There is a further double bedroom and excellent single bedroom plus modern shower room/WC.
Gas fired central heating has been installed together with double glazing.
The gardens include a stone paved terrace accessed from both the conservatory and sitting room which is ideal for entertaining during the summer months. There is a long lawn beyond surrounded by well stocked borders and screened by a variety of mature shrubs and trees. Importantly parking is available for two cars within the wide block paved driveway.
