Gaskell Avenue, Knutsford, WA16

A handsome, Grade II Listed Georgian townhouse in a wonderful position opposite the Little Heath, located within a short stroll of the town centre and all its amenities.

Gaskell Avenue is an exceptional road - these impressive and surprisingly large Grade II Listed Georgian homes form part of the centre piece of the town, intrinsically linked to Knutsford’s history, and enjoy a wonderful aspect overlooking the Little Heath at the front, with good sized, private lawned gardens to the rear, and on street parking with residents permits, available for two cars per household. The street has this summer also become a no through road, restricting traffic and making it even more desirable.

No 12 has been extended, altered and improved over the years and has spacious accommodation over four floors, which extends to about 2,300 sq ft.

An impressive entrance hall gives access to two substantial ground floor reception rooms, a main sitting room with original shutters and a lovely period fireplace, and a large dining room or second sitting room. which is open to a spacious kitchen/dining/living room, extended to the side with a vaulted, glass lantern light by Amdega. French doors lead from the kitchen area to a small rear courtyard and onto a larger entertaining terrace and the good sized lawned garden beyond. The kitchen is fitted with a range of base and eye level cabinets with a central island, granite work surfaces and a range of built-in appliances. There is a small WC off.

The lower ground floor former cellars have been fully converted in 2024 to a further large reception room, and are compliant with the latest building regulations. The substantial new open-plan sitting room is very spacious and would make an excellent lounge, games or media room - a really lovely extra space for the family.

The bedrooms are laid out over two upper floors - the main bedroom sits to the front with two windows overlooking the Little Heath, and has an en suite shower room. There are two further bedrooms on this level sharing a family bathroom and on the upper floor, accessed via a staircase from the landing is the fourth bedroom with an adjacent shower room.

Externally, these properties have small front gardens with dwarf railings, and to the rear is a courtyard, which opens onto a substantial terrace and beyond to a lawned garden with flower and shrub borders.
