Grove Park, Knutsford - 4 bed - £350,000 - Gascoigne Halman - Knutsford

Property details

Bedrooms: 4

Having been in sole ownership since construction in 1956 this detached family house is now on the market for the very first time. Situated in an ever popular town centre position and on an attractive tree lined road the property stands in larger than average gardens which have a private southerly aspect.
Whilst now requiring a straight forward scheme of general modernisation the property is perfectly habitable and would lend itself to extension and remodelling which would subsequently provide ideal family accommodation.
LOCATION
The property is within a short walk of the cosmopolitan town of Knutsford, an old market town rich in heritage and brimming with a variety of architectural features, particularly those built in an Italianate Tuscan style by the famous local architect, Richard Harding Watt. Linked by a web of ginnels, cobbles and courtyards, the two main streets are home to a variety of shops ranging from boutiques to antique shops, purveyors of fine wines and chocolate to art galleries and interior design specialists. There are however, a few familiar sites of larger multiple retail supermarket outlets, including Booths and Boots. Evenings in Knutsford are very lively with many fine wine bars, pubs and restaurants catering for most tastes. For the outdoor enthusiast, Knutsford borders some of Cheshire's most beautiful countryside and has the famous Tatton Park Country Estate on its doorstep with its Regency mansion, glorious gardens, traditional farm and medieval old hall. The town centre offers Leisure Centre facilities as well as numerous private sporting clubs and notable golf courses within easy reach. For the commuter, access to the nearby North West motorway network is readily available, as is Manchester International Airport and the rail station has links to Chester and Manchester. Excellent education facilities cater for children of most ages in both the state and private sectors.
DIRECTIONS
From the roundabout in Canute Square travel along King Edward Road (A50) proceeding straight through the traffic lights passing the rail station. Take the next turning on your left onto Grove Park, turning right at the mini roundabout and the property will then be seen on your right as the road bears to your left.
