Thoroughly upgraded and re-modelled by our client in recent times this beautifully proportioned detached barn sits in substantial gardens on the border of Green Belt farmland. Briefly the centrally heated and double glazed accommodation comprises an apex rustic porch, large welcoming entrance hallway with downstairs cloakroom, large principal living room, family room, breakfast room and kitchen with utility and rear porch. The bedroom accommodation which is predominantly located at first floor level is complemented by a large guest suite with en-suite with superb views across the garden, whilst at first floor level is a master bedroom with en-suite, three further bedrooms making five in total and a family bathroom. Externally is a detached double garage with electric up and over door, ample forecourt parking facilities and the gardens as described overleaf.
Much care and attention has been spent in the restoration of this barn and it has been extended and upgraded in recent times. The house boasts many original ceiling beams and this has been combined with every modern convenience. The property is decorated to a light, tasteful airy theme and is handily located for access to all amenities. The urban motorway network and International Airport are on the doorstep, Hale Barns village lies within two miles and Hale is also within ten minutes as is Altrincham with its range of services. There is a regular Metrolink service from Altrincham into Manchester and a regular train service from Hale to Chester.
