Fulshaw Park, Wilmslow, Cheshire SK9

A truly exceptional Georgian fronted property in the highly sought after Fulshaw Park area of South Wilmslow, situated only 0.5 miles from the town centre and set within exquisite gardens.

Description
The Pump House is a truly exceptional Georgian fronted property; originally part of the Fulshaw Estate with its origins believed to date back to the late 1700’s and converted into a “Gentleman’s Residence” in the 1800s. Set within exquisite and wonderfully private gardens, this unique property of historical and architectural importance is nestled amongst other interesting properties on the ever- popular Fulshaw Park.

In recent years The Pump House has been the subject of an extensive programme of remodelling, restoration and refurbishment with attention having been lavished on every detail. The sympathetic restoration works have resulted in a well-balanced and versatile layout extending to 2262 sq ft overall, which seamlessly blends modern convenience with a plethora of period features including exposed wooden beams, original windows and fireplaces. The combination of this property’s unique features in a private, secluded setting within a central location is truly a one-off.

The property can be approached via a York stone flagged driveway with parking for several vehicles and then on through a charming, cobbled courtyard. Alternatively, it may be entered via the gravel pathway through the delightful garden, leading to the attractive original door and into the welcoming hallway with oak flooring. To the right of the hallway lies the impressive formal dining room, also with oak flooring, original windows with wooden shutters, which then leads into the home office. The dining room leads into the well-appointed kitchen and utility room. The kitchen has a lovely dual aspect with courtyard views and access. It is bespoke designed with in-frame wooden units, granite worktops, a Belfast sink, Neff oven and gas hob, two integrated fridges and space for a dishwasher. The kitchen is finished with slate tiled flooring and hardwood double glazed windows. The utility room is fully fitted with a Belfast sink and offers an abundance of storage, a wine cellar/cupboard and space for a washing machine and dryer. To the left of the hallway is the charming and beautiful dual aspect living room with oak beams, original picturesque patio doors with shutters and an open fire with original fireplace.
From the hallway the stairs lead to a mezzanine level which provides access to a double bedroom with a large bay window and fitted wardrobes, a separate WC, and the spacious family bathroom with cast iron roll top bath, separate shower, porcelain tiled flooring and white sanitary ware.

To the first floor there is an impressive galleried landing, currently used as a second home office, featuring an oak beamed vaulted ceiling and a large picture window. The landing leads to two generously proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys a dual aspect, with original windows and a dressing room which leads into the en suite bathroom. The en suite bathroom is tiled, with C.P. Hart walk-in shower, toilet and sink. The other first floor double bedroom is also dual aspect with original windows and a fitted wardrobe.

Externally the secluded garden and courtyard are stunning. The beautifully landscaped garden with a combination of mature trees, formal planting, large lawn and stone patio with fountain, complements a wildlife area with pond and wildflowers. The cobbled private courtyard is a sun trap with wisteria winding its way around the door. This leads to the paved driveway giving access to the brick built detached garage and separate store.
