Flixton Road Steeped in history and brimming with character, this extended detached residence dates back to the 1800s and occupies an impressive plot in the heart of Flixton.
Over the years, the property has been thoughtfully updated, seamlessly blending its original features with modern comforts, while offering an exceptional opportunity for further renovation or extension (stpp).
Step inside to a welcoming sitting room, where a wood burner sets the scene for cosy evenings and relaxed entertaining.
Adjacent is a versatile snug that the current owners occasionally use as a guest bedroom, with the potential to convert into a third bedroom if required.
The snug flows effortlessly into a bright, light-filled sun room, perfect for additional seating or casual dining.
The French doors are low threshold for ease of movement, opening out to a quaint side patio for seating arrangements, to relax or enjoy outdoor dining.
The kitchen is fitted with elegant cabinetry, a Rangemaster oven, and cleverly integrated under-counter spaces for appliances, enhanced by a skylight that floods the space with natural light.
Completing the ground floor is a convenient wet room. Upstairs, two bedrooms await, one of which is complemented by a private dressing room, ready for you to make your own.
Outside, the property truly shines.
A substantial, well-established garden features a long brick weave path winds you around the deceptively large garden and pond, with numerous places to stop, sit, and enjoy, on its way towards the large sandstone patio for outside dining and entertaining.
A 30ft polytunnel with established grape vine and nectarine tree for the green fingered, along with further apples trees and raspberries bushes around the garden.
Adding to its versatility, the garden also accommodates a 35ft x 15ft static caravan that has the potential to be a brick-built construction (stpp), complete with an open-plan kitchen/living area, two bedrooms, and a bathroom that is currently not useable, that the owners use as a dedicated ‘work from home’ space.
At the bottom of the garden is a driveway that provides ample off-road parking, while a double carport adds further convenience.
Agents note Freehold The current deeds list the property as a three-bedroom house.
However, the property was previously converted to a two-bedroom layout with an additional dressing room when the original staircase was removed.
