Fernbank is a striking new-build interpretation of Walter Gropius’s Bauhaus principles, occupying an elevated, private position overlooking Fletcher Moss Park and Stenner Woods. The house spans approximately 6,927 sq ft over three floors, arranged as nine bedrooms, seven bathrooms and multiple reception rooms that open onto a south‑easterly sun terrace with 120° panoramic views. The lower floor houses a wellness suite with swimming pool, spa and sauna; outside space extends to 0.33 acres of secluded gardens and a sweeping driveway with quad garages.
The property is in the final phase of construction, which presents an unusual opportunity to tailor the last stage of the build and the panoramic all‑glass extension to your specification. Finishes are described as high quality and bespoke; the current configuration includes a large principal suite with curved south‑facing glazing, three principal ground-floor reception rooms and guest/staff accommodation on the lower level.
Important considerations: Fernbank is a major, high‑value residence listed as a freehold retirement property within a communal retirement classification — its scale and layout suit owners seeking a private, low‑density setting rather than conventional retirement living. The development is still being completed, so buyers should allow for the final fit‑out phase and associated costs. Council Tax is in a high band (Band G). Broadband is average; mobile signal is excellent. Viewings are by appointment only.
Located within Didsbury’s very affluent enclave and adjacent to St James Church, the house benefits from strong local schools, nearby amenities and direct access to parkland. For buyers seeking a substantial, architecturally distinct family home or a bespoke retirement residence with extensive leisure facilities, Fernbank offers rare scale, privacy and long-term investment potential, balanced by the need to complete the final construction stage and accept higher ongoing tax liabilities.
