Seeking stylish living for your sociable family in one of Cheshire s most serene and sought after settings?

Prestigious location
Rediscover ease of living, in sublime surroundings, at the semi rural, exclusive development of Stretton Green. Surrounded by farmland and open countryside, and adjacent to a conservation area, Melbury stands proudly in a safe, secure, prestigious yet friendly development upon which the old Stretton Dairy once stood.

A grand, detached home, inspired by Cheshire s historic country manors; the eclectic influences of English architect John Douglas 1830 1911 , whose architectural imprint can be felt throughout North Wales and Cheshire, can be seen in the finely detailed, weathered Cheshire brick, ornate finials and decorative ridge work of Melbury.

Welcome home
A white wooden gate opens to the gravel driveway, where there is ample parking for ten cars, alongside an impressive, detached triple garage, with remotely operated doors. Above the garage is a large home office, accessed by external stairs, where snow white roses wend their way up the wrought iron balustrades. Beneath this staircase is hidden storage for bins.

Handsome, prominent gables create an imposing impression, with a pleasing symmetry, tucked behind neat lawn borders and illuminated by external lighting. Make your way to the large porch, before stepping inside the entrance hall.

Broad, bright and airy, the entrance hall paints a picture of classical elegance in its soothing shades, and Art Deco style crystal chandeliers.

Wine and dine
On the left, entertain with ease in the formal dining room, another light and cheerful space. Carpeted underfoot and with views out over the front through a wide window, note the detailing in the wrought iron handles, evocative of the high quality finish found throughout.

Coming out of the dining room, turning left, directly ahead from the front door, discover the family dining kitchen.

Gleaming porcelain tiles extend underfoot, warmed by underfloor heating, their colour harmonising with the cream cabinetry of the spacious, Shaker style kitchen, where storage abounds. Quartz countertops offer ample preparation space, extending beyond the undermounted sink and also on the central island, where there is additional storage and also socket points.

Furnished with a range of appliances including an oven, induction hob, extractor, a trio of fridges, two freezers, a coffee machine, microwave and wine fridge.

Sociably open, there is ample space for a dining table and sofas, for a contemporary feel perfect for modern family living.

Soak up the view

Versatile spaces
