Description
Woodridings is a sympathetically designed development of luxurious apartments standing in the most delightful grounds. Originally constructed in 1976 and occupying an enviable position in a sought after location, this apartment stands within beautifully maintained landscaped gardens adjacent to the Devisdale, an open area of protected land.
The location must be regarded as one of the finest being within the Bowdon Conservation Area and positioned approximately one 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 also well placed for the surrounding network of motorways, places of worship and local schools.
Approached beyond a secure communal reception area this ground floor apartment is superbly proportioned and well presented throughout. The private entrance hall leads onto a spacious and naturally light sitting/dining room with the focal point of a traditional style fireplace surround and marble hearth. Importantly, two sets of French windows open onto the private stone paved terrace which is ideal for entertaining during the summer months. The kitchen is fitted with modern units and a range of integrated appliances and there is provision for storage off the entrance hall. The excellent master bedroom benefits from a range of fitted furniture and a contemporary en suite shower room/WC. There is a further double bedroom of generous size and a well appointed shower room/WC.
Gas fired central heating has been installed together with PVCu double glazing.
Remotely operated wrought iron gates provide access to the development and off road parking is available for residents and visitors. In addition, the garage is larger than average and has the added advantage of light and power supplies.
The communal gardens are certainly a feature, laid mainly to lawn with well stocked borders and screened by a variety of mature trees all of which combines to create an attractive setting.
