69, Longhurst Lane, Stockport, SK6 5AH

A magnificent double-fronted Edwardian home, brimming with period character and offering nearly 3,000 sq ft of accommodation over four levels.

Set within a substantial garden plot and ripe for full renovation, this is an exciting opportunity to create one of Marple Bridge’s finest family homes.

** No Seller Chain** The house requires comprehensive modernisation and a significant programme of investment.

However, for a buyer with the vision and appetite to take on a substantial project, the potential is extraordinary.

Grand proportions, high ceilings, bay windows and traditional architectural details provide the foundations for a truly exceptional restoration.

At A glance Substantial double-fronted Edwardian detached home Approximately 2,986 sq ft of accommodation Four bedrooms plus dressing room/home office Three generous reception rooms Accommodation arranged over three floors Four separate cellar areas Abundance of period character Recently installed oil heating system Outstanding potential to extend and reconfigure Substantial tiered gardens Two high-quality bespoke built greenhouses Garage accessed from Townscliffe Lane and parking No onward chain The property A storm porch opens into a wonderfully proportioned entrance hallway, where the staircase rises through the centre of the house and immediately establishes its period character.

There are two elegant reception rooms at the front, each featuring a bay window.

The sitting room sits to the right of the hallway, while the larger living room to the left benefits from an additional side window, allowing natural light to fill the space.

Towards the rear is a separate dining room leading into an L-shaped kitchen. Although dated, the existing kitchen remains serviceable and has several windows providing plenty of natural light.

The dining room also connects to a conservatory-style sunroom, with double doors opening onto the rear garden. The ground floor offers tremendous scope for transformation.

Subject to the necessary planning permissions and building regulations, an extension across the rear could create a spectacular open-plan kitchen, dining and family room overlooking the garden.

An orangery-style addition would work particularly well here (subject to necessary consents), introducing even more light and creating a strong connection between the house and its extensive grounds.

The grand proportions continue upstairs, where a spacious landing leads to three double bedrooms and the family bathroom.

There is also a smaller single bedroom which, in our view, would lend itself particularly well to use as a dressing room, nursery or home office.

A further staircase rises to the top/second floor, where there is an additional bedroom alongside a sizeable landing area.

This floor offers further potential for reconfiguration and could become a private principal suite, guest accommodation or an inspiring studio and workspace, subject to the appropriate structural advice and consents.

Beneath the house are four distinct cellar areas, offering extensive storage and housing the recently installed oil boiler and substantial water tanks.

These spaces may present further possibilities for practical or recreational use, subject to a full assessment of their condition and any necessary approvals.

The Gardens The house occupies a generous, elevated plot, with established gardens to both the front and rear.

A walled and gated frontage provides separation from the road, while pedestrian access leads around the property to the rear.

The substantial rear garden is arranged over a series of tiers and offers enormous scope for landscaping.

With thoughtful design, it could become an exceptionally beautiful setting for the house, providing areas for entertaining, recreation and relaxation.

Two high-quality bespoke greenhouses have been installed within the grounds and will particularly appeal to keen gardeners.

Plot/garden estimated at 0.25 acres Garage and Parking A double garage is positioned at the rear of the garden and is accessed by vehicle from Townscliffe Lane.

It provides excellent storage, workshop space or secure parking. There is also space to park an additional vehicle beyond the garage.
