About
A deceptively spacious late Victorian terraced house retaining much of the original character with commanding views in the direction of St Marys Church and positioned in a highly sought after location.
The superbly presented accommodation briefly comprises recessed porch, entrance hall, sitting room with feature fireplace, open plan dining kitchen with integrated appliances, lower ground floor utility room, WC and double bedroom/cinema room, two first floor double bedrooms, study/dressing room and bathroom/WC, second floor primary bedroom with Juliet balcony and en suite shower room/WC.
Gas fired central heating and partial PVCu double glazing. Decked rear courtyard.
Constructed in the latter part of the Victorian era York Road and the surrounding area forms part of a highly favoured locality containing mainly terraced houses with attractive traditional bay fronted elevations.
Typical of the period the interior is enhanced by tall ceilings, cast iron fireplaces and sash windows all of which combines to create a superb family home of generous size.
The location is sought after being within the catchment area of highly regarded primary and secondary schools including The Bollin Primary School and Bowdon Church of England School and local shops can be found within easy reach on Vicarage Lane.
The property is also well placed for the surrounding network of motorways, the Metrolink Station at Altrincham Interchange and the train station in Hale village.
The superbly presented interior is approached beyond a recessed porch and entrance hall with oak flooring which continues seamlessly into each of the reception rooms.
Positioned at front there is an elegant sitting room with angular sash bay window and the focal point of a cast iron fireplace with decorative tiled insert and polished granite hearth.
Towards the rear a formal dining room opens onto the refitted kitchen with Shaker style units complemented by quartz work-surfaces and a full range of Bosch integrated appliances.
The lower ground floor has been redesigned to create an excellent utility room with the same standard of fittings as the kitchen alongside a separate WC.
In addition, a well proportioned double bedroom is currently used as a cinema room and provides adaptable living space suitable for a variety of uses.
At first floor level there is a full width double bedroom with bespoke fitted wardrobes and a further double bedroom, both of which feature cast iron fireplaces.
The study may prove invaluable for those who choose to work from home, with potential to be used as a dressing room, and the adjoining bathroom/WC benefits from a modern white suite with chrome fittings.
To the second floor an exceptional primary suite comprises spacious double bedroom with built-in furniture and shower room/WC.
Furthermore, French windows to a Juliet balcony with wrought iron balustrade provide commanding views in the direction of St Marys Church.
Gas fired central heating has been installed together with partial PVCu double glazing.
Externally to the rear and accessed from the kitchen a delightful partially walled and decked courtyard garden is ideal for entertaining during the summer months.
