Sandiway Place includes a variety of period properties and the position is ideal being approximately a ¼ mile distance from the shopping centre of Altrincham with its highly popular Market Hall which contains a variety of establishments including small independent retailers and informal dining options. The Metrolink station provides a commuter service into Manchester and the area is well placed for the surrounding network of motorways. The location is also ideal being within the catchment area of highly regarded primary and secondary schools. In addition, two hundred yards to the east is John Leigh Park with tennis courts and recreation areas for all age groups.

This attractive double fronted early Victorian semi detached house was constructed circa 1848 and the accommodation incorporates rooms of generous size. Great care has been taken to retain much of the original character and charm complemented by tasteful decor and traditional style fittings enhanced by sash windows, tall ceilings and decorative ceiling mouldings.

Approached beyond an enclosed porch and panelled hardwood front door with fan light window above, the entrance hall features the original stone flooring and leads onto an elegant sitting room with period fireplace surround and angular bay window. Double doors from the entrance hall open onto the adjacent sitting room which may be used for formal dining if required. Toward the rear there is a fitted kitchen with picture windows overlooking the gardens and the adjoining utility room steps down to a naturally light conservatory with reclaimed wood flooring. In addition, there is a bathroom/WC fitted with a traditional style suite.

The lower ground floor has been improved to create two excellent cellar rooms flanking a well proportioned shower room/WC and although not refurbished in line with modern building regulations this adaptable living space needs to be seen to be appreciated.

To the first floor there are three superb double bedrooms and a well appointed family bathroom/WC of considerable size.

Gas fired central heating has been installed together with partial secondary glazing.

Externally, the stone paved driveway and attached garage provide off road parking and there is gated access to the side. With the benefit of a high degree of privacy, the partially walled rear gardens are laid mainly to lawn and have been landscaped to incorporate a substantial ornamental pond and terraces which are ideal for entertaining during the summer months.

Standing within The Sandiway Conservation Area this helps ensure changes respect the character and appearance of the surrounding homes whilst protecting the local historic architecture.
