Constructed by Messrs Pembroke Homes in 1998, The Lawns is a pleasant development of just thirteen houses set behind two electronically gated entrances. This house which is spread over three floors offers flexible accommodation currently offering five bedrooms but could easily be enlarged by way of a further loft enlargement, an adaptation which has been carried out by adjacent properties. Briefly the gas centrally heated and double glazed accommodation comprises a porch, wide, welcoming entrance hallway with downstairs cloaks, drawing room, dining room, breakfast room and kitchen with utility room adjacent and internal access to the double garage. At first floor level are four bedrooms including the master suite with its en-suite facilities, a guest bedroom with en-suite and two further bedrooms one of which has been enlarged by combining two bedrooms. Completing this floor is a family bathroom. At second floor level is a large fifth bedroom which could easily double up as a games room, in addition to which is an unconverted loft area which could easily be adapted to a bedroom with en-suite facilities, gymnasium etc. Completing the accommodation is a double garage with electric up and over door and the gardens as described overleaf.
The location of this house will surely appeal, set behind a twin electronically gated entrance the house sits in one of the most quiet and established locations in Bowdon yet is within easy walking distance of Hale and Altrincham. Hale’s fashionable village with its range of shops and services is complemented by Altrincham with its busy market town centre and regular Metrolink services into Manchester. Schools for all ages serve the area, the Bollin Valley and Green Belt are on the doorstep and sporting and recreational facilities abound.
