Gravel Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9

Two thoughtfully designed single-storey homes combining contemporary accommodation, private gardens and energy-efficient technology.

Description

A rare opportunity to purchase one of just two individually designed, new-build bungalows. Offering beautifully considered single-storey living with a high-quality contemporary specification, these exceptional new homes combine the convenience of a bungalow with the space, style and finish expected of a beautifully designed modern home.
Each property has its own private driveway, landscaped garden and thoughtfully planned interior, with light-filled living accommodation opening directly onto the rear terrace and garden.

A covered entrance opens into a welcoming central reception hall, creating a natural and practical flow through the home. Contemporary oak internal doors feature knurled matt dark bronze levers and coordinating ironmongery, while Karndean luxury vinyl tile flooring extends from the hallway through the kitchen, dining, living and utility areas to create a cohesive finish throughout the principal spaces. A cloakroom and useful storage cupboard sit off the hallway, while a separate study/lounge provides a dedicated and flexible additional living space.

Positioned at the rear of the property is an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, designed to create distinct spaces for cooking, dining and relaxing while retaining the openness and sociability of one beautifully connected room. A vaulted ceiling gives the space a wonderful sense of height and architectural interest, while a rooflight and wide Agate Grey bifold doors flood the room with natural light and create a seamless connection with the terrace and rear garden. The German-crafted, framed-style kitchen is arranged around a generous central island and finished with quartz work surfaces and hendle and hendle luxury handles. A comprehensive range of integrated appliances includes a full-height fridge, freezer, Rangemaster Professional Plus double oven with induction hob, with an additional microwave, dishwasher, and a Quooker Pro 3 tap.

An adjoining utility room provides valuable additional practical space and storage and benefits from its own external door.

The two bedrooms sit away from the main living accommodation, providing separation and privacy. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en- suite shower room, while the second bedroom is served by the beautifully appointed main bathroom. Both the bathroom and en suite have been carefully specified with Calacatta-style floor-to-ceiling tiling, Duravit sanitaryware and vanity units, together with Hansgrohe taps and thermostatic showers. The main bathroom also incorporates a back-to-wall D-shaped bath. LED illuminated wall-mounted mirrors with sensors and heated demister pads, together with heated towel rails, complete the specification.

Comfort and energy efficiency have been considered throughout the design. Underfloor heating extends throughout the entire property and is powered by a Vaillant aroTHERM Plus air source heat pump. Each home is predicted to achieve an EPC rating of B, subject to final assessment and certification.
Agate Grey windows and bifold doors are complemented by contemporary composite front and rear doors, creating a smart and consistent external finish. The attention to detail continues outside.

Each home is approached via its own private driveway, attractively finished with Indian stone paving and golden gravel to create a welcoming arrival. To the rear, wide bifold doors open directly from the principal living space onto the terrace and enclosed garden, extending the living accommodation during the warmer months. The gardens benefit from a beautiful westerly aspect and will be finished with feather-edge fencing, hedging, lawn and planting, providing an attractive landscaped setting. Each property includes a dedicated EV home charging point, complementing the homes' energy-efficient specification and providing convenient home charging. An intruder alarm system completes the specification.

Designed for modern living, these homes offer the convenience of a single-storey home without compromising on space, quality or contemporary design.
