Description
The ground floor provides superb family living space, including a welcoming reception hall, formal dining room, impressive living room and a beautifully appointed kitchen/breakfast room installed in 2022 by Oakleigh Cabinets of Altrincham. Finished to a high specification with bespoke cabinetry and quality fittings, the kitchen features a modern AGA hob and forms a stylish yet practical focal point to the home, with direct access onto the terrace and garden. A boot room, WC and access to an extensive basement level, offering multiple cellar chambers with excellent potential for conversion (subject to the relevant consents) add further versatility.
Across the first and second floors are six well proportioned bedrooms, including a spacious principal bedroom, complemented by two recently refurbished bathrooms completed in 2022 to a contemporary standard. The upper levels provide flexible accommodation ideal for growing families or those working from home, with additional eaves storage on the top floor.
Bedroom two also offers excellent potential to be reconfigured, with scope to knock through and create an impressive, larger principal suite complete with a walk in wardrobe and en suite. This has been thoughtfully future proofed, with the necessary drainage point already installed in the far left corner to facilitate a seamless conversion.
