Property description

AN ELEGANT PERIOD PROPERTY WITH STUNNING ORIGINAL FEATURES, TASTEFULLY MODERNISED - ACCOMMODATION OF GRAND PROPORTIONS.

Five bedrooms, drawing room, modern open plan living dining kitchen, utility, luxurious family bathroom and shower room. Attached double garage. Private driveway with off-road parking for several vehicles. Mature gardens.

A fine example of a classic period property, boasting a plethora of original features complemented with tasteful and recently added modern day embellishments.

Located in Mossley, one of Congleton's most desirable residential areas, this beautiful property overlooks the fairways of Congleton Golf Club and benefits from easy access to main arterial routes to Manchester Airport and the M6. It is positioned in the catchment area for Mossley C of E Primary School, which is within short walking distance, as is Congleton Railway Station for links to the national rail networks.

There are spacious reception areas, including a spectacular reception hall, with black and white Minton style tiled flooring, as well as a lovely drawing room with an exposed brick fireplace with log burner.

The current vendors have 'opened up' the two rear rooms, creating a vast open plan living dining kitchen. The dining kitchen is fitted with a bespoke handmade oak kitchen painted in a period grey, with deep pan drawers and pull out larder units all with soft closers, over which are solid oak preparation surfaces. Completing the ground floor is a cloakroom with separate w.c., and large utility room.

The first floor is accessed via a splendid shallow-rise return staircase to a large landing with exposed floorboards and staircase to the second floor. Doors from the landing lead to three double bedrooms, the understated yet beautifully upgraded family bathroom and the equally impressive additional shower room.

The upper floor offers two further bedrooms, both with angular ceilings and each with an abundance of storage.

Outside, as befits a property of distinction, there are lovely formal and manageable lawned gardens incorporating specimen trees and shrubs, terrace seating, and there is a large attached DOUBLE GARAGE and expansive driveway.
