Description
Introduction
A spacious and beautifully presented four bedroom townhouse forming part of an exclusive gated development of just seventeen properties on Brook Lane, within easy walking distance of Alderley Edge village centre. Arranged over three floors and extending to approximately 2,164 sq ft, the property offers generous family accommodation, a private corner garden and a large balcony with open views, all within one of the village's most established and sought after addresses.
The Seller's Story
We moved into Oak Bank over a decade ago and from the very beginning, it felt like somewhere special.
What drew us initially was the address itself. Brook Lane has a calm, almost village within a village quality to it, and the moment the gates open you feel removed from the world outside, whilst knowing that everything Alderley Edge has to offer is just minutes away on foot. We have walked to dinner, walked to the station, walked the children to school. That connection to the village without the noise of it has been one of the things we will miss most.
Over the years we have invested carefully in the home. The bathrooms were completely redesigned and finished to a high specification, the plastering was refreshed throughout, and we worked hard on the styling and presentation to ensure every room felt considered and cohesive. The private corner garden, with its mature planting, silver birch trees and stone terracing, became our favourite place to spend a summer evening.
We are proud of what this home has become, and we hope the next owners love it as much as we have.
The Home
As the wrought iron electric gates open onto the landscaped courtyard, the quality and character of Oak Bank is immediately apparent. Number 5 occupies a private corner position within the development, enjoying mature planting, silver birch trees and a sense of seclusion that the more open plots do not offer.
Stepping through the front door, the entrance hall leads through to the heart of the home, a generous open plan kitchen, dining and sitting room that spans the full rear of the ground floor. The Miele fitted kitchen features granite worksurfaces, an integrated breakfast bar and a full suite of appliances including coffee machine, two fan ovens, combination microwave, steamer, fridge, freezer and dishwasher. The dining area opens through French doors directly onto the private garden, whilst a step up leads to a beautifully proportioned sitting room with a deep semi circular bay window framing the views beyond. A separate utility room sits off the kitchen with its own access to the garden, and a well fitted study provides a quiet space for working from home. A cloakroom and WC complete the ground floor.
The first floor is arranged as a true principal suite floor. The main bedroom faces the rear with French doors opening onto a large wrap around balcony. A walk through fitted dressing room connects to a stunning contemporary en suite shower room, redesigned and fitted by the current owners with stone tiling and high quality fixtures throughout. The drawing room sits opposite, generous and light filled, with its own set of French doors onto the same balcony and a living flame electric fire. This floor genuinely works as a private retreat within the house, somewhere to close the door on the rest of the world.
The second floor provides three further double bedrooms, all well proportioned and served by a contemporary family bathroom, also refitted by the current owners.
The Garden
Number 5 benefits from one of the most private gardens in the development, a result of its corner plot position. Mature planting and silver birch trees provide natural screening, whilst stone terracing creates a series of seating areas that work well across the seasons. The garden is largely low maintenance yet full of character, with formal box hedging and established borders offering plenty of scope for anyone with a green thumb to make it their own. French doors from both the dining room and utility room connect the inside and outside seamlessly.
The Area
Alderley Edge needs little introduction. One of Cheshire's most desirable addresses, the village offers an exceptional collection of independent restaurants, wine bars, boutiques and cafés alongside excellent schooling including Alderley Edge Community School, The Ryleys and Pownall Hall. The train station is within easy walking distance and offers direct services to London in under two hours, whilst Manchester Airport is just six and a half miles away. The Edge itself, with its ancient woodland and sweeping Cheshire views, is a short drive away for weekend walks.
