Property Description
***NO ONWARD CHAIN***
A semi detached period house arranged over four floors and positioned on a corner plot 350 yards from the village of Hale. Retaining much of the original character and presenting an ideal opportunity to remodel to individual taste. 2,600 sq ft (242 sq m). The accommodation briefly comprises covered porch, entrance hall, WC, cloakroom, sitting room, dining room, utility room, primary bedroom with en suite shower room/WC, two further double bedrooms, bathroom/WC with separate shower enclosure, two second floor double bedrooms and substantial landing used as a dressing area. Much improved cellar chambers including three rooms and WC. Gas fired central heating and PVCu double glazing. Detached garage with remotely operated door. Gated driveway providing off road parking. Paved terrace and mature gardens.
Westgate forms part of a highly favoured locality adjacent to the village of Hale with its range of individual shops, restaurants and wine bars and railway station providing a commuter service into Manchester. The location is also ideal being within the catchment area of highly regarded primary and secondary schools and approximately ¼ of a mile distance lies Stamford park with tennis courts and recreational facilities.
Obviously well cared for by our clients the property would nevertheless benefit from some internal modernisation but this creates a superb opportunity to re-model to individual taste. Equally there is potential for further development within the naturally light basement rooms, subject to obtaining the relevant approval.
This period semi detached house features double height bay windows and partially rendered elevations with a decorative timber framed porch approached beyond a block paved pathway creating an attractive entrance. This fine family home also occupies an enviable corner position within mature grounds and the gardens include a paved terrace with a high degree of privacy which is ideal for entertaining during the summer months.
Superbly proportioned throughout the living space incorporates a hallway with turned spindle balustrade staircase returning to one side and generous cloakroom with fitted furniture alongside a separate WC. Positioned to the front there is a spacious sitting room with the focal point of a traditional style fireplace with decorative tiled insert and hearth, whilst toward the rear, a formal dining room is adorned with a cast iron fireplace. The adjacent kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of units and integrated appliances and there is an adjoining utility room with external access.
At first floor level the excellent primary bedroom has the added advantage of fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room/WC. Two further double bedrooms also feature fitted furniture and are served by a family bathroom/WC complete with separate shower enclosure. To the second floor there are two additional double bedrooms separated by a substantial landing which is currently used as a dressing area and may be combined to create a primary suite, if desired.
The lower ground floor is much improved and includes three cellar chambers and a WC.
Gas fired central heating has been installed together with PVCu double glazing.
Off road parking is provided within the block paved gated driveway and detached garage with attached storeroom.
