Property Details

Converted in recent years this magnificently proportioned barn conversion extends to something approaching 4,000 sq.ft of living and useable accommodation. The accommodation which is laid out interestingly comprises a large entrance area which in turn provides access to a separate self contained apartment/play room.  The main body of the house comprises an entrance hallway, inner hallway with large downstairs cloaks, good sized principal living room, three further reception areas, a breakfast room and fully fitted kitchen.  At first floor level and accessed via two independent staircases is a master bedroom with en-suite, four further bedrooms one being a large guest bedroom with en-suite facilities and a family bathroom. Completing the accommodation and accessed separately is a large utility area with staircase leading to a huge games room which could easily be converted into a self contained apartment already having a shower room adjacent.  There is a two car garage, and a single garage, ample storage facilities adjacent and the gardens and parking facilities as described overleaf.

This particular area is characterised by a mixture of properties many of which date back to the mid part of the 19th century.  This particular property has been completely renovated and is offered for sale in walk-in condition.  Hale, Altrincham and Lymm lie almost equi-distant.  Hale with its range of fashionable shops and restaurants is complemented by Altrincham with its busy market town centre and regular Metrolink services into Manchester.  Lymm is also within ten minutes drive with its range of shops and restaurants.  The urban motorway network and International Airport are literally on the doorstep.  Sporting and recreational facilities abound and the property is surrounded by green belt farmland.

From the centre of Hale, proceed along Park Road, Bowdon to the main Dunham traffic lights, continue across into Charcoal Road and proceed for approximately 2½ miles passing under the narrow bridge past the Rope and Anchor Public House bearing right over the hump back bridge where the property will be found on the right hand side.
