5 bedroom detached house for sale
Key information
Property description & features
- Tenure: Freehold
Reputedly dating back over three hundred years, The Old House is a charming and unique detached residence occupying an enviable position within the Green Belt enhanced by exceptional views over undulating countryside. Surrounding the property are woodlands and fields and grounds approaching half an acre which include substantial outbuildings/garages. Despite the rural location the shopping centres of Altrincham and Lymm are approximately equidistant around three miles to the east and west respectively and a regular bus service may prove invaluable for those children attending local schools.
Much of the original character has been retained such as exposed beams and panelled doors alongside modern enhancements including oil fired central heating and high quality double glazing.
Upon entering the feeling of space is apparent and a naturally light reception area leads onto the spacious dining room which is ideal for formal entertaining. The sitting room features an attractive fireplace with wood burning stove set upon a stone hearth and glazed door which opens onto the stone paved rear terrace. The adjoining living room also provides access to the landscaped gardens through two sets of dual aspect French windows and the adjacent kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of units complemented by polished granite work-surfaces, integrated appliances and oil fired AGA. In addition there is a shower room/WC, utility room and well proportioned study. Completing the ground floor is a conservatory which provides access to the gardens and attached double garage.
At first floor level the excellent primary suite comprises double bedroom with vaulted ceiling and Juliet balcony and bathroom/WC complete with separate shower enclosure. Four further bedrooms are served by the family bathroom/WC and benefit from outstanding views across open countryside.
Approached beyond a long stone paved/gravel driveway there is provision for ample off road parking and the generous outbuildings/garages have much further potential subject to obtaining the relevant approval.
In conclusion, a superbly presented family home set within magnificent grounds and an appointment to view is highly recommended.
