Description

Introduction
An exceptional contemporary home forming part of an exclusive gated development of just five properties on the rural edge of South Wilmslow, completed in 2023 by Oliver James Homes and significantly enhanced far beyond the original developer specification.
Positioned with uninterrupted countryside views to the rear, this beautifully designed four-bedroom home combines striking contemporary interiors with impressive energy efficiency, achieving an EPC rating of B. Every detail has been carefully considered, from the bespoke joinery and upgraded lighting to the luxurious bathrooms, designer kitchen and premium materials used throughout. Offering approximately 1,707 sq ft (158 sq m) of accommodation across three floors, together with three allocated parking spaces and EV charging, this is a home that feels both sophisticated and welcoming... perfectly balancing entertaining space, everyday comfort and connection to the surrounding countryside.

The Seller's Story
We purchased Whim Brook as a brand-new home from Oliver James Homes shortly after it was completed and immediately knew it was somewhere we could make our own.
Working within the property industry myself, I was very involved in the design process and spent a great deal of time carefully selecting upgrades and finishes to ensure the home felt individual and personal. Whilst the original specification was already excellent, I wanted to elevate the details further and create a home that felt both luxurious and practical for everyday family life.
We upgraded to Ted Todd oak flooring throughout the ground floor, redesigned the principal suite to create a freestanding bath overlooking the fields, selected marble finishes for the principal en suite and added an inset television for those slower mornings and evenings. The kitchen was enhanced with a waterfall island, champagne trough, wine cooler and Quooker tap, whilst the additional bathrooms were finished with playful terrazzo tiles that brought a little personality and fun into the design.
Bespoke joinery, upgraded lighting, Sonos speakers, electric blinds, Crittall-style glazing and carefully selected materials throughout all helped transform the house into the home we had imagined. It has been the perfect home for our family. We have loved the balance of being surrounded by countryside whilst still being so close to Wilmslow. Some of our favourite weekends have been spent walking through the woods and across Lindow Moss, stopping for lunch at The Pheasant, or simply sitting on the terrace with friends enjoying a drink as the sun sets.
The south-facing garden, the peace and privacy, and the sense of community within the gated development have all made it a very special place to live.
The decision to sell certainly hasn't been an easy one. The only reason we are moving on is because we have made the exciting decision to relocate abroad and begin a new chapter as a family.

The Home
As the electric gates open, you are greeted by a beautifully landscaped frontage and the clean contemporary lines of this elegant semi-detached home.
Stepping through the front door, your eye is immediately drawn through the hallway towards the open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, framed by uninterrupted views across the fields beyond. Underfoot, beautiful Ted Todd saw-cut natural oak herringbone flooring runs throughout the ground floor, complemented by underfloor heating and carefully selected antique brass ironmongery, toggle switches and dimmers.

The kitchen was extensively upgraded by the current owners and centres around a striking waterfall quartz island with warm copper veining, designed perfectly for entertaining. Friends naturally gather here, pouring drinks from the integrated champagne trough and wine cooler whilst food is prepared on the powerful gas hob and premium Neff appliances beyond.
A double Belfast sink sits beneath an instant boiling water Quooker tap, whilst antique mirrored splashbacks reflect light beautifully throughout the space. Bespoke bar stools were custom made specifically for the island, completing the overall design. Crittall-style glazing by Altitude Aluminium adds a contemporary architectural edge, opening onto the south-facing terrace whilst also creating separation between the kitchen and snug without compromising light or flow.

The snug itself feels cosy and intimate, complete with a bespoke media wall, open shelving and lower cabinetry fitted by Cheshire Joinery. Inset black spotlights, all fully dimmable, sit alongside elegant brass picture lights designed to showcase artwork and create warmth in the evenings. Integrated Sonos ceiling speakers run throughout the home, whilst Ring security cameras, an alarm system and electric blinds add further comfort, convenience and peace of mind. Completing the ground floor is a spacious utility room with excellent storage, a beautifully finished downstairs WC and practical understairs storage.

The first floor is home to the stunning principal suite, carefully redesigned from the original developer layout to maximise both the views and sense of luxury. Positioned perfectly to wake up overlooking the fields beyond, the bedroom flows through into a walk-through dressing area fitted by Cheshire Joinery and onwards into a truly striking en suite bathroom.
A freestanding bath sits perfectly beneath a full-height picture window overlooking the countryside, alongside a large walk-in shower, double vanity unit and inset television, creating a space that feels more boutique hotel than typical new build. Elegant marble finishes and electric underfloor heating complete the room.

The second bedroom on this floor is another generous double, complete with fitted wardrobes and its own beautifully appointed en suite finished in pink terrazzo tiles with warm copper detailing. There is also a large linen and storage cupboard positioned on the landing. The second floor provides two further spacious double bedrooms, both with fitted wardrobes, alongside an additional shower room finished in blue and white terrazzo tiling. Extensive under-eaves storage also houses the boiler and large hot water cylinder.

The Garden
To the rear, French doors open onto a lovely paved sun terrace, perfectly positioned to enjoy the south-facing aspect and uninterrupted views across the open countryside beyond.
The garden has been designed to feel simple, elegant and easy to maintain, whilst still offering wonderful entertaining space during the warmer months. An external Belfast sink with hot and cold water adds practicality for gardening, outdoor dining and summer gatherings.

Thanks to the south-facing orientation and impressive energy efficiency, the home remains naturally warm and bright throughout the day, requiring very little heating despite the comfort of underfloor heating. To the front, pleached trees, evergreen planting, ornamental grasses and slate borders create a smart and welcoming approach. The property benefits from three allocated parking spaces together with EV charging.

The Area
Whim Brook enjoys one of the most desirable positions in South Wilmslow, tucked away on the rural end of Moor Lane and surrounded by some of Cheshire's most beautiful countryside.
From the doorstep, there are wonderful walks across Lindow Moss, the surrounding peat bogs and East Cheshire Nature Reserve, with routes stretching through the fields towards Mobberley and local countryside pubs including The Pheasant, The Plough and Flail.

For those who enjoy cycling, horse riding or long walks, the nearby Laurian's Ride heritage trail and Cheshire Cheese Loop are both easily accessible.
Despite the peaceful setting, Wilmslow town centre remains within easy reach, offering an excellent selection of independent cafés, restaurants, wine bars, fitness studios and high street shopping. Even closer still is Chapel Lane, home to independent bakeries, boutiques and the much-loved Farmers Arms.
Manchester Airport is within easy reach, whilst Wilmslow train station offers direct services to London in under two hours.
The property also sits within catchment for a number of highly regarded schools including Lindow Community Primary School and Ashdene Primary School.
For weekends away, both the Peak District and Lake District are easily accessible, making this a location that perfectly balances countryside living with connectivity and convenience.
