Carrwood, Knutsford, WA16

An exceptional modern detached family home occupying one of the finest positions on this tremendously popular development, directly opposite the central green and enjoying a beautifully landscaped, west-facing rear garden.

Carrwood is a highly regarded development of 1960s-built houses, arranged along spacious avenues with wide, open front gardens, and has long been particularly popular with families. This property occupies an especially attractive position, overlooking the central green to the front, whilst the west-facing rear garden has been beautifully landscaped and faces brilliantly for the sun.

During their ownership, the house has been significantly extended and remodelled, creating a superb open-plan kitchen, dining and living space across the rear of the property. Extending to approximately 2,500 square feet (inc garage), the accommodation is exceptionally well proportioned and feels bright, spacious and contemporary throughout.

There is also excellent planning consent in place for a further first-floor extension, extending over the double garage and along the side of the property. This would create a substantial principal bedroom suite together with a further en suite to one of the bedrooms. Importantly, this planning permission remains live, having formed part of the original ground-floor extension application, which has subsequently been completed.

Internally, the house offers rooms of excellent proportions, beginning with a spacious reception hall and a large dual-aspect lounge with views across both the front and rear gardens. The real heart of the home is the impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, featuring a contemporary kitchen with a substantial central island return, generous dining and sitting areas, and an extensive expanse of glazing overlooking the rear garden.

Adjacent to the kitchen is a cozy snug, cleverly created as an informal retreat for evenings watching television. The kitchen is also complemented by a well-designed walk in pantry, and there is a utility room and separate boot room.

At first floor level there are four good sized double bedrooms and a refurbished family bathroom, and of course there is the excellent planning consent in place for the first floor extension should it be required.

Externally, the property benefits from attractive gardens to both the front and rear, together with a driveway providing parking for several cars. The west-facing rear garden is a particular feature, having been thoughtfully landscaped by the current owners to create a lovely private outdoor space.

A superb family home in an exceptionally popular location, combining generous accommodation, excellent existing extensions, beautifully landscaped gardens and the significant benefit of further live planning consent.
