Property Description

Approximately 1,927sqft/179sqm. The superbly presented accommodation briefly comprises recessed porch, entrance hall, sitting room, dining room, breakfast kitchen, utility room, WC, three excellent double bedrooms, single bedroom and bathroom/WC.

Albert Road 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. At approximately ¼ of a mile distance lies Stamford Park with tennis courts and recreational facilities. A little further is the award winning market town of Altrincham with its highly popular Market Hall which contains a variety of informal dining options and independent retailers, as well as the Metrolink.
Typical of the era, it is difficult to appreciate the full extent of the accommodation within. Much of the original character, including sash windows, panelled doors and decorative mouldings, has been retained. Although obviously well cared for and ready for immediate occupation, there is an opportunity to re-model to individual taste and equally there is potential for further development, subject to obtaining the relevant consent.
This period terraced house features immensely attractive elevations with double height bay windows set beside a recessed porch with brick archway and the original stained glass/panelled hardwood front door. Superbly proportioned and presented throughout, the living space incorporates a hallway with turned spindle balustrade staircase and sympathetically designed Amtico flooring. Positioned to the front there is a spacious sitting room with the focal point of a traditional style moulded fireplace, whilst towards the rear, a formal dining room is adorned with a stone fireplace and matching hearth. The adjacent breakfast kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of Shaker style units and polished granite work-surfaces complemented by a quarry tiled floor. Completing the ground floor is an adjoining utility room with external access and WC beyond.
At first floor level there are three excellent, spacious double bedrooms, a generous single bedroom and a family bathroom fitted with a traditional style suite. The substantial landing also allows space for a study area which may prove invaluable for those who choose to work from home.
The lower ground floor has been improved to create two excellent cellar rooms and although not refurbished in line with modern building regulations this adaptable living space is currently configured as a home office/tv room and storage room.
Gas fired central heating has been installed.
Externally the beautiful courtyard garden has been carefully designed to incorporate manicured trees and shrubs alongside a paved terrace which is ideal for entertaining during the summer months.
Permit parking is available by application to Trafford Council.
