Property Details

Occupying a highly convenient location within easy striking distance of both Hale and Altrincham this classically styled Edwardian detached house offers spacious accommodation spread across four floors.  Briefly the gas centrally heated accommodation comprises an entrance porch, original panelled hallway with staircase to first and second floors.  The ground floor comprises three good sized reception rooms, a refitted breakfast kitchen, whilst at lower ground floor level is a billiard room and several other useful ancillary rooms.  At first floor level is a master bedroom with en-suite dressing area and bathroom, three further bedrooms and a family bathroom.  At second floor level are bedrooms five and six, an attic room and a third bathroom.    Externally is a garage, parking and gardens as described overleaf.

The Red House has retained many of the fine original features such as the original panelled hallway and staircase, moulded ceiling cornicing etc., and the area in general is characterised by a mixture of top quality houses and apartments.  Hale’s fashionable village lies within five minutes as does Altrincham with its busy market town centre and regular Metrolink services into Manchester.  Schools for all ages serve the area and the Bollin Valley and Green Belt are on the doorstep.  The urban motorway network and International Airport lies within ten minutes.

To conclude, this is an excellently proportioned family house, with the undoubted bonus of magnificent views across the Cheshire Plain beyond.

From the centre of Hale proceed across the main level crossing to the first set of traffic lights, turning left onto Langham Road.  Continue for approximately half a mile where the property will be found on the left.
