Description
A Grade II listed handsome detached residence built in 1845 by J.S. Crowther's assistant Thomas Worthington, with extensions in 1875, also accredited to Worthington. The property is believed to be the 5th of the original Alderley villas, substantial Victorian residences set in spacious well planted gardens. Built of pale local sandstone, the property is an eclectic mixture of styles, the original building being medieval gothic in style, whilst the later parts are timber framed with sash windows. To the front of the property there is a beautiful stone oriel, adding detail to the fa?ade of the house. The present owners have sympathetically restored the property to its former splendour whilst maintaining many of the original features including intricate coving, carved architraving, stone mullion windows and restored wooden floors. The property is set within spacious landscaped gardens of approximately 1.75 acres, largely hidden from the public viewpoint with mature trees and thick shrubbery providing a high level of screening. All discerning purchasers are urged to make an internal inspection to fully appreciate the size of the accommodation on offer, and the stunning position that the property occupies.
