Description
Occupying a substantial corner plot along sought-after Orrishmere Road in Cheadle Hulme, this impressive detached residence offers a rare combination of generous proportions, flexible layout, and multi-generational potential. Built in the late 1950s to early 1960s and cherished by the current owner, the home exudes warmth and character while having been sympathetically updated for modern living. With five double bedrooms, multiple reception spaces, and a self-contained annex, this is a home designed to adapt effortlessly to the needs of a growing or extended family.
The property is approached via a wide rain porch with terracotta tiles, framed by beautiful stained glass windows that hint at the home’s mid-century heritage. Stepping inside, the hallway features wood-look laminate flooring and an inviting sense of space, with a useful hall or office area to one side past the spiral staircase with a large bay window that floods the space with natural light. The stylish ground-floor shower room is fitted as a modern wet room with porcelain tiling, extractor fan and spotlights.
Straight ahead, the hallway leads into a newly fitted kitchen, bright, functional and well designed. Crisp cabinetry pairs perfectly with wood-effect flooring, while a full suite of Lamona appliances includes a gas hob, two ovens, a full-size dishwasher, and a fridge with freezer drawer. A cleverly concealed pantry cupboard offers additional storage, and a doorway leads through to a practical utility area. From here, a door opens onto the rear courtyard, a charming brick-paved space that enjoys morning sunshine, perfect for breakfast outdoors. In the evening, the front garden bathes in sunlight, providing a wonderful setting for evening relaxation. There is also a step up to a side garden with raised planters, a built-in bench that wraps around a mature tree, and an outdoor tap.
To the right of the main entrance, the spacious living room is positioned to the front of the house, featuring a decorative ceiling rose, large window, and laminate flooring that continues the sense of flow throughout the ground floor. Understairs storage with a light offers practical space, while double wooden doors open into a second reception room, which could be used as a dining or playroom. This room connects directly to the rear garden through glazed doors, offering a lovely indoor-outdoor feel and making it perfect for family living or entertaining.
The staircase turns at the landing, illuminated by a generous window. Upstairs, new carpets throughout lend a fresh, welcoming atmosphere. Bedroom one sits to the front and is a generous double, while bedrooms two and three both enjoy views over the rear garden and offer excellent proportions. A fourth bedroom, that could be used as a cot room, connects via sliding door to the annex and would also serve well as a home office or dressing room. The family bathroom, positioned straight ahead from the stairs, features tiled flooring, a shower-over-bath combination, and a fitted vanity sink with storage beneath. The loft above is fully insulated, providing excellent energy efficiency.
The property’s standout feature is its self-contained annex, accessible via the adjoining room and also by a spiral staircase from the ground floor. This unique element of the home adds incredible flexibility, ideal for an older family member, guest accommodation, or even an independent workspace. The annex includes a large dual-aspect bedroom set within the eaves above the garage, a bright and private retreat with abundant natural light streaming in and an additional window positioned over the spiral staircase.
Externally, the home is equally impressive. The corner plot provides an abundance of outdoor space, with lawns and paved areas wrapping around 3 sides of the property. The garage offers exceptional storage or workshop potential, while the large driveway provides off-road parking for approx. 8 vehicles. The property also benefits from an intruder alarm system for added security.
Perfectly positioned within a highly regarded residential area, this home falls within the catchment for both Cheadle Hulme Primary School and Laurus High School, making it ideal for families seeking excellent education alongside convenience and community. Cheadle Hulme’s amenities, transport links, and green spaces are all within easy reach, creating an enviable lifestyle setting.
Offered for sale with no onward chain, this substantial five-bedroom detached home is a true gem, a spacious, adaptable, and much-loved family residence that offers scope, comfort, and opportunity in equal measure. Perfect for multi-generational living or those simply seeking room to grow, this is a property where every generation can feel at home.
