Denby Lane, Heaton Chapel, Stockport, SK4

Introducing a true Heatons Gem – an exquisite, unique and extended four bedroom 1920s detached family residence in the heart of Heaton Chapel on a commanding corner plot. Having been in the family for two generations and over three decades, the property has been tastefully and sympathetically improved over the years to retain as much of the original character, including timber-framed windows, paneling and stained glass, amongst other enviable features, which blend seamlessly with the modern conveniences and aesthetic. Growing families are encouraged to arrange internal inspections to appreciate the home on offer – rarely do properties of this calibre and character grace the local market. Offered chain-free.

Denby Lane is ideally situated for easy access to the A6 road links north and south in and out of Manchester. The nearby Heaton Chapel Rail station is also a mere five minute walk away. Heaton Moor Road with its healthy variety of bars, pubs and retail outlets is also within walking distance as well as Heaton Chapel’s own burgeoning high street with its independent bars, restaurants and outlets. For families, the property is also zoned for reputable primary and secondary schools.

Entering through the front, the ground floor is briefly comprised of: commanding entrance hallway blessed with natural light from dual aspect stained glass windows as well as those from the landing, paneling throughout, a spacious living room to the front featuring a characteristic bay window to the front, a second reception room to the rear that is currently serving as a sitting room but could be used as a dining room with French Doors leading out onto the rear garden, and an open-plan kitchen/diner featuring rustic units, cupboards and worktops and an island to the centre. Singe flight stairs to the cellar grant access to three chambers and a storage area offering ample internal storage opportunities and further development.

Wraparound stairs grant access to the first floor landing, which in turn leads to four well-proportioned double bedrooms ideal for the growing family with the largest of the two boasting their own integrated wardrobes. The rear bedroom enjoys its own recently modernised en-suite shower room with contemporary tiling comprised of a three-piece suite. The family bathroom completes the floor with a four piece suite – including a charming claw-foot bath with Victorian fittings.

To the top floor, the final room offers a versatile space with a skylight and generous pitch to the ceiling that could serve as work-from-home space or a bedroom (subject to planning/regulations).

Externally, there is an in-and-out paved driveway to the front offering ample off-street parking for several vehicles. To the side, a garage offers further opportunity for external storage and parking. To the side and rear, the garden is almost directly south-facing and enjoys the sun throughout the day. This generous space is comprised of a mixture of paving and turf, bordered by planters, and offers the potential to extend the property further from the rear.
