Lyme Grove, Altrincham, WA14 2AD

A handsome and beautifully appointed ‘interlocking’ semi-detached period home, occupying a highly sought-after cul-de-sac in the heart of Altrincham.

Tucked away from the bustle of the town yet exceptionally convenient for the centre, Metrolink and train station, and some of the area’s most highly regarded schools, this is a superb family home in a genuinely enviable position.

Owned by the present owners for almost 20 years, the property has undergone an extensive and carefully considered scheme of works during their tenure.

The emphasis throughout has been on quality, sympathetic styling and attention to detail, while cleverly maximising the available floor area and retaining the character and charm of this handsome period house.

The accommodation is particularly generous and versatile. The ground floor opens with a welcoming, large front-to-back entrance hall, setting the tone for the impressive proportions throughout.

There are two excellent period reception rooms, both retaining a wealth of character and providing elegant and adaptable family living spaces, alongside a stylish modern breakfast kitchen.

A guest WC completes the ground floor. The lower ground floor has been transformed into a brilliant series of highly usable spaces, adding a significant amount of flexibility to the home.

Currently arranged as a utility room, wine cellar, cinema room and large home office, this level could readily adapt to suit the needs of a modern family, whether for working from home, entertaining, hobbies or teenagers.

A beautiful turning period staircase rises to the first floor, where there are two substantial double bedrooms, two bathrooms (inc an ensuite to the principal bedroom) and a separate WC.

The principal family bathroom is particularly spacious and well appointed.

The second floor provides a further three double bedrooms, creating an exceptional amount of bedroom accommodation for a house of this type, with clear potential to introduce an additional bathroom if desired.

Outside, the property continues to impress.

A generous driveway provides parking for three cars, while the landscaped rear garden has acquired a lovely sense of maturity, with established planting providing excellent privacy and a peaceful backdrop.

There is a large patio and lawn, together with a superb clad garden office/summer house, ideal for home working or as a flexible additional space.

The former garage has also been cleverly converted to create a dedicated home gym.

This is a particularly impressive period family home, combining handsome architecture and generous proportions with the versatility, specification and thoughtful improvements required for modern family life.

Its position is equally compelling: peaceful and tucked away within a desirable Altrincham cul-de-sac, yet within easy reach of the town centre, Metrolink and railway station, together with the excellent schools for which Altrincham is so highly regarded.

A brilliant family home in a brilliant location. EPC Rating: C Parking - Driveway   Parking - Garage
