On the market for the first time since 1963, this spacious four-bedroom detached home occupies a quiet cul-de-sac and backs onto a valley with the River Dean beyond, giving a private, non-overlooked rear aspect. Set on a large plot with a sunny garden and off-street parking, it will suit a family seeking space and outdoor privacy in a sought-after Handforth location.
The house offers generous, adaptable accommodation across two storeys: entrance porch and hall, downstairs WC, an extended lounge overlooking the garden, separate dining room, breakfast kitchen, integral garage with utility area, and a landing with French doors and balcony. Upstairs are four double bedrooms, an en-suite to the principal bedroom and a family bathroom. Total size is approximately 2,020 sq ft providing scope to reconfigure or extend subject to planning.
Although presented in solid condition, the property requires cosmetic updating throughout and offers clear renovation potential to modernise fixtures, finishes and layouts. Buyers should factor refurbishment costs into their plans, but will be rewarded with a sizable freehold plot and excellent local schools within walking distance.
Location is a major selling point: quiet suburban setting in an affluent area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, good transport links and Handforth train station nearby. Council tax is described as expensive; purchasers should allow for higher ongoing local costs. Overall this is a rare family opportunity with scope to tailor the house to contemporary tastes.
