This is your opportunity to purchase an ideal family home that has only had one previous owner! With that kind of pedigree you can be assured that the neighbours are great, the home is brilliant and it's a difficult decision for the vendors to finally decide to move having lived in the property since it was built.
It's easy to see why they've stayed so long though with so much on your doorstep. You are a short distance from Timperley, Altrincham and Sale, with that comes bars, restaurants, shops, cinemas, market halls, schools, parks and more. All three locations also have their own Metrolink stops and the motorway is on your doorstep as well meaning that all the hubs like Media City, Manchester City Centre, the airport, the hospitals and universities are within striking distance meaning commuters will adore this spot. Closer to home though this property really has the prime location of the development with the treeline and brook directly opposite giving you a real feel of serenity while sitting the large living room of the property. Kentmere Road is a unique layout too with the road being split in two which means the only people driving past your property are neighbours or visitors helping again with that sense of paradise in a normally busy suburb.
Looking at the property though it really has something for everyone. This could be a first purchase with an eye on a property that you can grow into, a forever home for the family, a work from home hub for those families with two WFH workers due to the bedroom sizes and extra living space downstairs, it could be the multi generational family home with scope to convert the garage into annexe space for older relatives (or teenagers!) and it could also offer the perfect opportunity for someone who fancies doing extension work.
It's current configuration is laid out with family living in mind though, you enter off the large drive way into a welcoming hallway with downstairs WC to your right and double doors into the living room to your left. This living room offers those views over the treeline in front but the window grabs all the light it can make the space feel spacious. The magic starts at the rear of the property though with all three rooms bathed in light from the southerly facing garden, the dining room off the living room also provides access to the kitchen but could be converted into open plan living space very easily. The same could be said of the sitting room too which could be used as an occasional bedroom, office space or incorporated into the open plan living kitchen space if you go down that route. The ground floor also has a utility space off the sitting room (again scope to add an en suite there easily if you choose to go down that route) and the integral garage which can be accessed internally and externally which makes it the ideal space to add a chest freezer!
Upstairs the property has really made the use of the space and offers four bedrooms of varying sizes and could be a working from home dream for those that need two offices! The main bedroom has an en-suite off it and there is a family bathroom finishing off the first floor. Now if you have one eye on conversion there may be scope to extend the first floor over the garage to offer additional bedroom or office space (subject to planning permission).
Has the star of the show been left to the end though? With this garden you wouldn't be wrong! The vendors have done an amazing job creating a green oasis in this south facing garden which offers a range of spaces to explore and make your own. The nest buyer though will surely be the envy of their friends as well as being the main BBQ host! The space also offers further scope for extension work with the right planning permissions to make an already large house even larger.

Vendor's favourite features: "We purchased this house off plan 34 years ago and have loved the time spent in this quiet backwater. We have bought up 2 children and looked after 4 grandchildren. They loved the proximity of the local parks and fishing for sticklebacks in the brook at the front of the property, as well as walks and bike rides down Brooks Drive. We will be sorry to leave the property because we have very good neighbours, but we need to be practical. We no longer need such a large house and are looking to downsize locally. The garden and fishponds will be sorely missed.”
