3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Penrhyn Crescent, Stockport SK7

Where to start with Penrhyn!

You’ve got a family home that’s just really well balanced. As you’d expect, you’ve three bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs, but it’s the downstairs and outside where it really comes into its element.

That’s not to detract from upstairs either. You’ve a lovely bathroom and three decent bedrooms, but downstairs is just geared for family life perfectly.

Having been extended at the back, on the ground floor you’ve firstly got a great sized porch. A space between the cold and the warm, the wet and the dry, or even just somewhere to dump the shoes, coats and anything else that comes through the door with you.

The living room layout wise is pretty much untouched, but you’ve got a beautiful exposed brick chimney breast, feature fireplace and log burner. Not only does it look great, but when required, it kicks out enough warmth to heat much of the ground floor and even up onto the first floor.

Sliding double doors then lead into my favourite part of the home.

The owners have extended out the back, so you’ve now got three really defined areas, the kitchen, the dining space and an additional living area. It’s all beautifully finished, with contrasting colour tones through the units and worktops, loads of natural light coming through the side window, roof lantern and the large full width bi-fold doors.

Then you’ve got all the nice little touches of décor that just soften the room and make it feel really homely.

The home further impresses when you head into the garden.

Being on a corner plot, you’ve got a really good sized lawn, a raised decked area, large patio and then a really handy bit down the side of the garden. Perfect for storing the bins, trampoline and anything else you want to chuck round there when you’re trying to make the garden look tidy!

And, to add to all that, you’ve also got a proper sized double garage.

At roughly 20ft x 20ft, it’s not only a cracking bit of storage, but for the more observant amongst you, there’s loads of potential there too.

You could quite easily maintain a single garage on the far left and turn the other side into another reception room, office or playroom. Or, if you really wanted to, look at converting the whole garage and making it an extension of the home.

To the front, you’ve also got a large driveway, so parking isn’t something you’re going to be short of either.

Location wise, Penrhyn Crescent is a really handy spot in Hazel Grove too, particularly for family life. You’ve got the primary school close by, a parade of local shops within easy reach and plenty of green space nearby for getting the kids out, walking the dog or just escaping the house for half an hour.

It means you’ve got quite a lot on the doorstep without feeling like you’re right in the middle of everything.

All in all, it’s just a really good family home. Plenty of space inside, a cracking garden outside, loads of storage and still plenty of options for how the house could grow and change with you over the years
