Property Details

Beautifully refurbished by our clients over the last few years, 12 Park Road sits in an immaculately manicured large corner plot with superb southerly facing orientation.  Briefly the accommodation which is laid out over three floors plus cellars comprises a substantial veranda style porch, large welcoming entrance hallway with feature fireplace, two large principal entertaining rooms and a truly stupendous breakfast room and kitchen.  The kitchen area having been totally refitted with a range of solid oak Fired Earth units with every modern appliance with an informal breakfasting area to the rear all with marble floor with under floor heating.   Leaving the entrance hallway is a walnut staircase which rises to a small galleried landing which in turn leads to the master bedroom with its en-suite facilities.  Two further double bedrooms one of which is in use as a dressing room, are then complemented by a refitted family bathroom.   At second floor level are three further double bedrooms and a shower room all leading from a large reception study landing. 

This house is presented to a light, tasteful airy theme.  The house is beautifully decorated and is presented as something of a blank canvass, however much care and attention has been spent in the refitting of the bathrooms all with Fired Earth fitments and tiling.  The kitchen has been fitted with a range of solid oak Fired Earth units whilst externally the gardens are manicured and landscaped and are described overleaf. 

This section of Park Road is characterised by a mixture of turn of the last century houses, however there will be few that are presented to such an excellent standard.   Hale’s fashionable village lies within five to ten minutes walk, Altrincham is close at hand 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.   The urban motorway network and International Airport are literally within ten to fifteen minutes drive.

As of particular interest to some buyers will be a huge suite of cellar chambers.  The cellars which are split into four distinct areas have incomparable properties being converted to a media room, gymnasium, home office etc. which would enlarge the already impressive living accommodation.  There is also external access which would provide the potential for a self contained apartment.

DIRECTIONS

From the centre of Hale proceed along Ashley Road past St. Peter’s Church, after approximately five hundred yards turn left onto Park Road, the property will be found on the right hand side opposite Warwick Drive and on the corner of Laburnum Lane.
