Russell Road, Manchester, M16 8DJ

Bored of the same period terrace or two bed apartment in Whalley Range? Well look no further for something a little different on the market, a four double bedroom detached home just around the corner from the Carlton Club - this unique property feels like a true one off and retains plenty of the period charm inside.

The highlight reel on this one extends past simply being a beautiful building - you’ve got off road parking, double bedrooms, two en-suites, downstairs WC, space for a home office, utility room and that’s overlooking all the original features that have been kept in place!

Sat on the corner of Russell Road and Deeping Ave, this double fronted detached home is in the perfect location for those looking to make the most of everything Whalley Range has to offer such as the sought after schooling at St Bede's College, Manley Park Primary School and William Hulme Grammar School to name a few. But there is more to this leafy suburb than simply schools - you've got Alexandra Park right on your doorstep, a huge range of bars, restaurants and shops as well as sports clubs. The transport links are unrivalled being around half a mile from Firswood Metrolink stop, Fallowfield Loop cycle route close by and of course the motorway network and bus routes meaning that you're never far from the action and close to commuter hubs like Media City, City Centre, the Airport, the Universities and more. If you're looking for adventure outside of Whalley Range you're only a short taxi ride away from Chorlton, Didsbury and Manchester as well.

Packed with character, this property is going to be something really special for the next family having been in the current family for over 20 years, showing opportunities like this don't come up often. So many original features have either been retained or restored throughout from the wood flooring, large box bay windows, stained glass and fireplaces which give this home an authentic feeling throughout and would be great for someone who is looking to further preserve that character when they become the next custodian.

It's hard to give you a brief run through of the accommodation so let us take you on a tour - accessed off Russell Road the property fronts both Russell Road and Deeping Ave behind a low wall as well as having a driveway (something a lot of properties lack in Whalley Range!) A short walk up the path you are under the original porch covering the front door and original stained glass.

You open the door into the grand hallway which provides access to all the living accommodation, to your right you'll find yourself in the large living room with it's huge box bay window to the corner which provides a distinctive room shape that is replicated in the principal bedroom. It's features like this that make the property stand out from the crowd but also means you end up with the perfect spot for a Christmas tree when the time rolls around again! Back into the hall you have a smaller play room that would make the ideal formal dining area, home office, snug, sitting room or whatever else you can dream up. The play room also opens up to the enclosed decking area which really brings the outside inside! To the back of the property you have a long galley style kitchen with underfloor heating as well as the extended dining area which is currently used as an additional sitting room. Also by the kitchen you have the world's fanciest utility space with it's own bay window and the downstairs WC.

Up the stairs onto the first floor you’ll find the family bathroom and three bedrooms. The bedrooms on this floor all differ in size and features but could easily fit double beds plus bedroom furniture. The principal bedroom above the living room has the large box bay window again as well an en-suite, the second bedroom also has a bay window and is significantly larger than you would expect (it puts some principal bedrooms to shame!) and the third bedroom would make an ideal home office. 

Can you believe there is even more upstairs in the loft? Hiding an additional bedroom, another en-suite AND storage room! Again this storage space is crying out for something slightly different, could it be a walk in wardrobe or nursery? Even another office space? A living space for the teenager you hide upstairs? Or even a music room!

Finally to wrap it all up, there is an enclosed low maintenance garden alongside the enclosed patio area which is the perfect space to chuck the kids out in while you're making tea!
