Standing elevated from the road the tree lined country lane, Holly Bank is a deceptive detached dormer cottage which provides flexible and surprisingly spacious accommodation. Nestled in a large private garden plot the property enjoys super open views over surrounding countryside in a south westerly direction yet within minutes of the village centre and a short drive from Knutsford, Wilmslow and Hale. Particular mention should be made of the five separate reception rooms to the ground floor which of course given the make up of the property be adopted to further bedrooms if so required. This ground floor configuration incorporates a large house bathroom presently almost en-suite to the currently used bedroom. The design at present makes the master bedroom suite a very spacious room and to the first floor with dormer windows overlooking the front and rear gardens with views. There is a study area off the landing and en-suite dressing room open to a bathroom. Throughout decorations are in excellent order as are the beautifully landscaped gardens and this property is certainly one which must be viewed to be appreciated.
