Where do you start with a property like this? There's the obvious from the outside, such as the expertly designed extension, or the things you can't see from the outside like the stylish decoration, which creates high quality living space throughout. The property is nestled away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac that has always been popular with families and is accessed via the large driveway that has more than enough space for several vehicles. Entering through the front door, you are greeted by a hallway that has plenty of smart under-stair storage (those with small children will know how great this is!), Nest controlled central heating and a burglar alarm, and provides access to the all the downstairs rooms.

The ground floor layout is incredibly versatile and can be moulded to suit your family’s needs. This really is testament to the intelligent design of the extension. For example, to the right you will find what is currently a large home office, but this could easily be an extra downstairs bedroom for a teenager or older relative (there is even scope to convert the downstairs WC into an en-suite for this room) or used as play room or cinema room. On the other side of the hall, you'll be greeted by an adult living room with bay window and log burning stove; this space is immaculately presented and ideal for hosting a more sophisticated after-meal drink while the children play in the play room next door. Again, the versatility of this home is apparent as this generous play room, which has access to the garden via patio doors, could be used as a formal dining room or an additional living room. The real gem of this floor, however, has to be the large open plan living-dining kitchen that so many attempt but rarely achieve to this standard. The fully fitted kitchen with integrated appliances (including dishwasher, tall/larder fridge and freezer, gas hob, electric oven and microwave oven) has views over the garden via the large bi-folds. There is also generous space for both seating and a dining table which means this really is the hub of the house. The vendor has made numerous improvements since they bought the property and the fitted utility room with WC and integrated washer and tumble drier is a great addition. The Viessmann boiler is less than 2 years old and other fan favourites like the Victorian style clothes airer.

Running up the stairs to the first floor, the size of the house really comes to light with five generous bedrooms, all of a great proportions (meaning there shouldn't be any arguments of who gets which room!). This is perfect for those with a large family but also those that have multiple family members working from home, as you could use one bedroom as an office in addition to the office downstairs. There are also two bathrooms which should stop the morning arguments of whose turn it is!

Back outside, through those huge bi-folds you will discover the larger than expected garden which really is the perfect space to throw a BBQ or simply let the kids out to play. With a mix of (low maintenance!) artificial grass lawn, decking, and mature planted borders, there's something for everyone in this generous garden. Those with green fingers may simply tend to the garden while those with business in mind might add a home office to the rear in what is currently a workshop (with lighting and power). Those who like a party may simply want to add a hot tub and bar! Whatever you choose to do the with the garden, there is plenty of space for you to do it in and to chase the sun all day!

This family home has so much going for it and we've not even touched on the amazing location yet. You're sitting in East Didsbury, meaning that you're only minutes from the action at any time. You'll be able to commute across the whole of the North West and further afield with little effort as you've got the motorway and train networks, Metrolink, bus routes, and cycle paths all on your door step. This will prove popular with the with commuters who find hubs like Media City, the airport, hospitals and universities are within striking distance. Being located just off School Lane comes with the joys of Didsbury Village and Parrs Wood Entertainment Centre being just around the corner, meaning you've got bars, restaurants, cafes and even a cinema and bowling alley close by. You're also within half a mile of many good schools, such as Beaver Road, St Catherine's RC and Didsbury CofE Primary Schools, and Parrs Wood and Barlow RC High Schools. If green spaces are more your thing, you've got Fletcher Moss Park and Didsbury Park to explore, as well as Heaton Moor and Withington Golf Clubs if you fancy a long walk ruined.

Vendor's favourite features: "This has been the perfect family home for us. The big indoor/outdoor space has worked so well for living with children and socialising, especially when hosting big summer family BBQs, and the separate cosy lounge has been a comfortable space to wind down in. The really friendly community on the street is such a bonus and we will be sad to leave our lovely neighbours. Easy access to parks, schools, shops and pubs has been ideal. We hope another family enjoys living here as much as we have.”
