Delahays Drive, Hale, Altrincham, Greater Manchester, WA15

In Need of Modernisation.

Opportunity to acquire a characterful family home that is in need of modernisation, yet is perfectly habitable in its current form, allowing an incoming purchaser to modernise, extend and improve over time.

The current accommodation includes a large principle sitting room, separate Dining room, family sitting room, fitted breakfast kitchen, utility room and ground floor WC, whilst on the first floor there are four generous bedrooms arranged around a galleried landing served by a family bathroom with separate WC.

The standout feature of this property for us are the incredibly large gardens which are laid principally to lawn with many mature trees and shrubs, these extend to almost one third of an acre and afford a high level of privacy. Even if the ambitious and seriously large extensions were to be undertaken, the house would still benefit from one of the largest gardens on the road.

Delahays Drive is prestigious and sought after, a quiet crescent of mostly large scale detached family homes close to Hale Village, where prices for the best houses approach £2m.

The sale of this house therefore represents an excellent opportunity for a buyer to live on the road at an affordable entry level price and add substantial value over time.

An internal viewing is therefore strongly recommended.

For those Purchasers in search of a Development project and have the time and resources for such an undertaking, we are able to share details of the planning consents obtained, these now include a positive response from a pre planning application for a proposal to completely demolish the existing house and build new, a letter to this effect from Trafford planning department with anyone looking to buy a building plot and embark on a new build project.

The current owners who purchased the property for their own occupation in 2021 with a view to creating their forever home, have spent the last 4 years and tens of thousands of pounds on architects and planning fees to obtain full planning consent, to dramatically extend and remodel the existing house, however due to a change in circumstances due to relocation are now looking to sell on the project at a competitive price which leaves profit for the buyer.

Full planning permission exists to almost double the size of the existing house from 2220 sq ft to 4415 sq ft if a purchaser wanted to take on a large scale project, yet large enough for a growing family to enjoy in its current form.

We would be happy to share proposed floor plans and artist impressions of the proposals consented to. These can also be viewed online via the Trafford Borough Council Planning portal. The consent reference and Application Number: 115077/HHA/24; Granted 5th September 2025
