Description
***NO ONWARD CHAIN***
A superbly presented modern detached family house set within beautiful landscaped grounds exceeding 0.2 of an acre and occupying a semi rural position approximately one mile distance from both the villages of Hale Barns and Timperley. The contemporary accommodation briefly comprises entrance hall, sitting/dining room, breakfast kitchen, utility room, cloakroom/WC, study, primary bedroom with fitted furniture and en suite bathroom/WC, additional double bedroom with en suite shower room/WC, two further double bedrooms and family bathroom/WC. Gas fired central heating and PVCu double glazing. Integral double garage and driveway. Paved terrace and gardens laid mainly to lawn.
Holly Tree Cottage reputedly dates back to the early 18th Century and is a unique detached house occupying an enviable position within the Green Belt. There are exceptional views over undulating countryside and despite the semi rural location the shopping centres of Hale Barns and Timperley are easily accessible.
Surrounding the property are woodlands and fields and grounds exceeding one fifth of an acre. The setting is tree lined and incorporates a substantial stone paved terrace which is ideal for al fresco entertaining with an expanse of lawn beyond and the benefit of a high degree of privacy. In addition, the separate partially walled courtyard is accessed from both the integral garage and utility room.
Refurbished by the current owners this superbly presented family house offers a high standard of internal fittings, including Duravit and Hansgrohe sanitary ware, and has been carefully replanned for modern living.
Upon entering the feeling of space is apparent and the naturally light reception hall is flanked by a spacious open plan sitting/dining room with stunning vaulted ceiling and the focal point of an impressive fireplace with multi-fuel burning stove. Furthermore, French windows open onto the aforementioned terrace. The adjacent kitchen is fitted with contemporary units complemented by quartz work surfaces and a matching peninsula breakfast bar alongside a full range of integrated appliances. Completing the ground floor is a useful utility room and adjoining cloakroom/WC and a study which may prove invaluable for those who chose to work from home.
At first floor level there are remarkable far reaching views across open countryside and the excellent primary suite comprises double bedroom with fitted furniture and luxurious en suite bathroom/WC complete with walk-in shower. There is a further double bedroom with en suite shower room/WC, two additional double bedrooms and a fully tiled family bathroom/WC.
The block paved driveway has provision for off road parking and the integral double garage also has the advantage of an electrically operated door.
