Description

This distinctive detached bungalow boasts impressive 180° panoramic views of Manchester and the surrounding countryside, accessible from both inside the home and the private rear garden. Nestled on a generous corner plot, it benefits from proximity to Werneth Low Country Park and lies within a quiet cul-de-sac, offering an array of beautiful walking paths while remaining conveniently close to the amenities of Gee Cross Village, including shops, cafes, pubs, and transport links. Having served as a cherished family residence since 1967, this freehold property is well-maintained but presents substantial opportunities for renovation or expansion. The expansive plot features two driveways leading to a detached garage, with potential for various enhancements such as extending the existing living space (subject to planning permissions), connecting the garage to create an additional room, or even converting the loft into usable living area. Many neighbouring properties have successfully undertaken similar projects. Inside, you'll find ample-sized rooms including a spacious lounge that maximizes those stunning views. The open-plan kitchen/diner has sliding patio doors opening to a side patio area and is equipped with plumbing for modern appliances. The accommodation includes three double bedrooms, a bathroom suite, generous storage options, and a porch extension. Outdoors, enjoy a private south-facing rear garden that features multiple lawns and a summer house perfect for appreciating the scenic vistas. There’s also space previously occupied by a greenhouse adding potential for gardening enthusiasts. With gas central heating installed in 2017 under warranty and uPVC double glazing throughout, this property is ready for its next chapter. The homeowners have enjoyed their time here for over half a century due to welcoming neighbours and a secure community environment enhanced by neighborhood watch programs. Despite its tranquil setting, commuting is straightforward with direct bus routes available to Stockport Town Centre and other locales; nearby train stations facilitate easy access into central Manchester in under half an hour.
