The ground floor flows effortlessly creating an inviting warmth, wet underfloor heating runs seamlessly throughout, from the plush carpet to the sleek grey tiles .

The heart of the home is undoubtedly the expansive living, dining, and kitchen space. Here, a bespoke ash gallery overlooks the room, while floor-to-ceiling windows and triple sliding doors frame views of the private, wrap-around garden with its protected mature trees. Every detail of the kitchen has been considered: soft-close cabinetry, a quartz waterfall island with an integrated Bora induction extractor.

The striking landscape letterbox window above the sink perfectly frames the tranquil setting, bringing the outdoors in.

Off the hallway, a utility and boot room - complete with terrazzo style worktops - provides a conveniently placed sink, plenty of storage space, panelled wall, built in bench and direct access to the garden. Continuing on this floor you are led to a versatile study and cleverly utilised snug, comprising of a built-in desk nook with a window out to the garden and bespoke panelled shelving.

Upstairs, the architect’s vision truly shines. The bespoke ash staircase is a focal point, guiding you to a gallery landing with strip lighting and a long, bench reading nook. Pools of natural light shift throughout the day thanks to carefully positioned skylights, tilt-and-turn windows, and daylight tracking all incorporated into the design.

The main bedroom boasts handle less fitted wardrobes, a built-in dressing table, and concealed eaves storage by Barwoods, not to mention with fitted lighting. It’s ensuite rivals any boutique hotel, with luxurious green-grey tiling, a freestanding bath and a rain shower. The remaining bedrooms - one with a chic pink-tiled ensuite, one with a large tilt window, and another with triple skylights - are all generous doubles. A further bathroom echoes the home’s spa-like aesthetic with an overhead rain shower, and natural light pouring in from above.

Outside, the gravel driveway easily accommodates four cars, complemented by an EV charger, hidden bin store, and additional garden storage that houses a brand new Intergas boiler and fitted floor to ceiling timber storage shelving. The garden itself is secure, private, and designed for low maintenance, with a wrap-around layout and side access. With its secure boundary, regularly serviced security system, outside taps and power points - every modern convenience is carefully integrated into the design of this turnkey home, both practical and beautiful. Additionally, the lockable garden storage unit includes category 5 cabling that runs throughout for ultra fast internet connection in every room of the house.

The architect reflects on the design: “The house retains the footprint of the original 1985 Cheshire brick bungalow, with only a modest extension to the dining area. The Cheshire brick creates a timeless quality that is beautifully complemented by the black timber cladding in the storm porch and the exterior of the snug. By lifting the roofline, we unlocked a light-filled second level. The windows were positioned to follow the movement of the sun, so light dances through the spaces from morning to evening, transforming the atmosphere as the day unfolds. ”

The location is equally impressive, offering superb connectivity with easy access to the nearby bypass, ideal for reaching major motorway links and shopping destinations such as Handforth Dean and other retail parks. Bramhall village and train station are both within walking distance to this home, placing everyday essentials, eateries, and direct rail connections all close to home.
