A handsome double-fronted Victorian detached house occupying a large, tree-lined plot on a quiet Sale road. The house offers spacious, high‑ceilinged rooms, original period features (sash windows, stained glass, cornicing) and generous reception space — ideal for family living and entertaining. Chain‑free and finished in neutral decoration, it’s move‑ready in many rooms.
Practical family benefits include four bedrooms (three generous doubles and one small single), an en‑suite, a modern family bathroom, and multiple reception rooms. The ground floor opens to a large open-plan kitchen/dining area with double doors onto a south‑facing private garden and patio. There is a basement split into storage and a large utility/shower area with scope to convert for additional living space.
A large driveway for four cars and a garage (currently converted into a self‑contained home office with its own kitchen and bathroom) add flexibility for home working or multi‑generational use. The location is a major selling point: short walk to excellent schools (including top‑ranked local primaries and Sale Grammar), fast road links and around a 15‑minute drive into Manchester city centre.
Notable issues to consider: the garage conversion and any basement conversion may require planning or building‑regulation approvals. Bedroom four is a small single and some basement areas are currently for storage or utilities rather than finished living space. Overall, the house offers substantial period charm and scope for sympathetic updating to increase value and tailor the layout to modern family life.
