Before you arrange a viewing, let us take you on a quick tour. Walk up the garden path and up the steps to the front door set under the attractive dressed arched brickwork. Cross the threshold into the splendid, spacious hallway which sets the theme for the proportions of this home. The hall is the gateway to the two reception rooms, kitchen, cellar and first floor (via a lovely spindle balustrade staircase).

There is a large reception room to the front with a bay window. To the rear, another reception room, this one with UPVC patio doors opening to the rear garden. Let social occasions spill out from here into the garden.

The kitchen, likely fitted during the 1970's is a good size retro affair and the condition, for its age, shows the care and attention shown to their home by the owners. You are likely looking at the floorplan and thinking about opening the kitchen to the rear reception room. Your call.

Back to the hall; ascend the stairs to the first floor and be impressed by the spacious landing. Period doors access to the three good sized fitted bedrooms, the spacious modern shower room and the handy separate w.c.

The spacious cellar has light, power and plumbing for a washing machine.

The rear is divided by a gateway which separates the paved garden leading from the rear of the property through to the additional paved area used as the drive. The drive has gates accessible from Elmfield Road. There is a good sized garage.

The local area has a wealth of amenities with shops, pubs, parks and sports clubs within walking distance, mixing the upbeat regeneration of Stockport with the convenience of easy transport links into the city the countryside, the airport and motorway networks
