A Victorian Masterpiece, re-imagined for Contemporary Living



An exceptional 6-bedroom Victorian semi-detached home in the heart of Alderley Edge one of Cheshire`s most desirable villages. Built in 1881, this distinguished four-storey home beautifully unites period grandeur with modern refinement, offering over 3,000 square feet of meticulously-restored living space.



From the moment you step through its original doorway, the atmosphere is one of heritage and harmony.

Handcrafted Victorian-style tiling, wood panelled staircases, and Lincrusta wall coverings nod to the property`s provenance, while Farrow & Ball tones and period-style radiators elevate every room with timeless sophistication.


The ground floor unfolds across a pair of elegant reception rooms, both bathed in natural light.

The formal lounge with its original fireplace, picture rails, ceiling rose, and solid wood flooring captures the elegance of the era.

The second reception room is a versatile space, perfect as a formal dining room or snug, enjoying dual-aspect windows that frame views of the rear garden.



To the rear lies the bespoke kitchen, the true heart of the home. Featuring South African Ruston slate flooring, granite worktops, a new central island with breakfast bar for four, and integrated Bosch appliances, it blends craftsmanship with practicality.

French doors open onto a South-facing terrace an idyllic spot for alfresco dining, complete with an outdoor heater and seating area which captures the sun at all times of the day.


Up to the first floor, a graceful landing leads to two beautifully-proportioned bedrooms and a third, used as an office, overlooking the garden.

The vast principal suite is a serene retreat with a gas fireplace, soaring ceilings and dual-aspect sash windows. Ample space for a super-king bed and an abundance of wardrobes.

The South-facing front double bedroom offers double sash windows as well as the trademark soaring ceilings, sense of grandeur and an abundance of natural light, filling this spacious room.

A Victorian-style bathroom features Rene Mackintosh-style tiling, a Matki shower and underfloor heating. bringing a touch of heritage finesse to everyday life.



The adjoining bedroom, currently used as a home office, is accessed through an original Victorian archway, adding a sense of storytelling and flow throughout the level.

In this area of the home there are several built-in, original cupboards, perfect for organising and storing.


The top floor offers incredible flexibility and a heap of character, making it ideal as a guest level, teen suite, or even as a luxurious Principal floor. Two generous bedrooms are complemented by a large bathroom with freestanding bath, electric rain shower. There is superb ceiling height and a sense of calm; a sense of really being away from it all, above the houses and with picturesque views of the Alderley Edge church spire. The stairwell provides a remote-controlled electronic Velux skylight with rain sensor, perfect for those unexpected seasonal showers.

In both second-floor bedrooms, original exposed timbers and skylights create a space filled with light, character and a true sense of home.


The lower ground floor was converted by the current owners in 2019 and further extends the home`s versatility. It includes a cinema room, an arts-and-crafts studio or home office, a utility kitchen and a wet room that could double as a pet shower. With independent access from the garden, this floor has been designed with annex potential, offering space for multi-generational living or a private guest suite.

The rear garden is a fantastic blend of patio for seating, or hosting bbqs, and lawn, surrounded by mature shrubs. Shrouded in privacy, to have such a private offering within a 2 minute stroll of Alderley Edge Village, plus private, gated driveway parking, is a rare offering that we are proud to bring to the market.



Every element of Rosslyn reflects twenty-two years of thoughtful ownership and care from its restored fireplaces and handmade tiles to its South-facing aspect and inviting flow of natural light. Positioned a short stroll from Alderley Edge`s boutiques, cafés, and countryside walks, this is a home that truly captures the soul of English craftsmanship and modern comfort.

The property is Freehold, and is sold with no onward chain.
