The generously proportioned and superbly presented accommodation briefly comprises recessed porch, entrance hall, sitting room, living/dining kitchen, much improved basement with utility area, first floor primary bedroom with en suite shower room/WC, additional double bedroom, bathroom/WC and second floor double bedroom. Gas fired central heating and double glazing. Courtyard garden with paved terrace and gated access to the rear.

Albert Road East 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 In addition, the Metrolink station serves the Greater Manchester area.

Typical of the era, it is difficult to appreciate the full extent of the accommodation within. Much of the original character has been retained including cast iron fireplaces and decorative mouldings alongside enhancements such as timber framed double glazed sash windows. Importantly, the property has been sympathetically extended to create an impressive open plan living space with French windows opening onto the paved rear courtyard.

This Victorian terraced house features an immensely attractive front elevation with a bay window set beside a recessed porch with brick archway, period style floor tiling and a stunning stained glass/panelled hardwood front door. The interior is superbly presented throughout and the current owners have commissioned a comprehensive program of redecoration. The entrance hall features natural wood flooring which continues seamlessly into an elegant sitting room with the focal point of a stunning stone fireplace surround. Toward the rear there is a remarkable living/dining kitchen fitted with Shaker style units complemented by polished granite work-surfaces and a range of Siemens integrated appliances alongside a matching central island and cast iron fireplace with decorative tiled hearth.

The basement is much improved and, although not considered a habitable room, is currently configured as a utility/laundry.

At first floor level the excellent primary bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and a modern en suite shower room/WC. There is also a further double bedroom and fully tiled bathroom/WC complete with separate shower enclosure. The loft space has been thoughtfully designed to deliver a generously proportioned double bedroom with provision for storage within the eaves.

Gas fired central heating has been installed together with double glazing.

Externally the private stone paved courtyard is ideal for entertaining during the summer months and there is gated access to a shared access area at the rear. The house is set well back beyond a lawned garden with mature borders and there is potential to create off road parking, subject to obtaining the relevant approval.
