Property Description
A perfectly positioned ground floor retirement apartment superbly proportioned and with direct access to the southerly/westerly facing tree lined grounds. The accommodation briefly comprises communal reception area, L-shaped private entrance hall with deep utility cupboard, spacious open plan sitting/dining room with French windows opening onto the manicured gardens, fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, master bedroom with walk-in wardrobe, guest bedroom and fully tiled shower room/WC. Gas central heating and double glazing. Residents parking. Ideal location approximately half a mile to the town centre.
Originally a mansion house and formerly the residence of John Ireland the composer, Inglewood became a select development of apartments with the addition of a substantial new built retirement wing. This apartment is for occupation by those 55 years of age and over.
Positioned at ground floor level there are superb views over the beautifully maintained gardens in a southerly and westerly direction allowing enjoyment of the sunshine throughout the afternoon and into the evening. Importantly with direct access from the open plan living space through double opening French windows. The delightful communal grounds are certainly a feature being laid to lawn, unusually large and bordered by a variety of mature trees all of which combines to create an attractive setting.
Approached via the communal reception area from which there is a lift to the upper floors the accommodation is superbly proportioned throughout. An L-shaped private entrance hall benefits from a mirror fronted cloaks cupboard and provides access to a spacious and naturally light dual aspect sitting/dining room with the focal point of stone fireplace surround and contemporary electric fire framed in chrome. The kitchen is fitted with Shaker style units complemented by quartz work surfaces alongside a full range of integrated appliances. There are two double bedrooms both with fitted furniture and a modern tiled shower room/WC complete with waterproof flooring.
The location is a particular feature forming one of the most highly favoured locations within the Bowdon Conservation Area and well placed for the shopping centre of the market town of Altrincham with Metrolink station and the fashionable village of Hale with its range of individual shops, restaurants and wine bars.
Gas fired central heating has been installed together with PVCu double glazing and integrated blinds throughout.
Externally there is resident parking.
Viewing is highly recommended.
