Large period home with modern extension, huge garden and flexible living over three floors.
Six bedrooms and three bathrooms plus separate shower room
This handsome Victorian semi-detached house stretches over three floors and offers genuine family scale: six bedrooms, three bathrooms plus an extra shower room, and about 3,527 sq ft of flexible living. Period features such as original tiles, high ceilings and bay windows sit alongside a contemporary rear kitchen extension with vaulted skylight, open-plan dining/snug space and a multi-fuel burner. The result is a home that feels both characterful and thoroughly liveable.
Practicality is a strong point. A large gated driveway provides off-street parking for several cars and the very large plot includes a mainly lawned garden with mature planting. The cellar comprises four separate chambers currently used for pantry, storage, coal/wood store and laundry — useful utility space that keeps daily clutter out of the kitchen. A cinema room and a rear gym with its own shower offer flexible use for family life, hobbies or home working.
Accommodation is arranged with four good double bedrooms and two bathrooms on the first floor (main bedroom with ensuite), and two additional bedrooms on the top floor that suit a teenager, dressing room or home office. The property falls within the catchment for Ludworth Primary School and Marple Hall School, and local shops, parks and rail links are walkable from Station Road, making day-to-day family routines straightforward.
Important practical points: council tax is high and any buyer should budget accordingly. While the house is beautifully presented throughout, its size and age mean ongoing maintenance is a consideration; buyers should check details such as energy performance and any works if they wish to alter the house further. Planning permission was previously granted for an extension, which may interest those wanting to add value or alter the layout.
