If you’re looking for a unique home with lovely nature literally on your doorstep while still having a comprehensive variety of modern amenities nearby, this may be the perfect fit. You have to see this property in person to really appreciate all it has to offer. Curious? Let’s take a closer look…

The Living Space - A front porch provides a handy spot for all your coats and shoes to be kept tidy and out the way, which then opens onto the spacious hallway on the middle floor connecting two lounges and the kitchen and dining room.

Immediately to the left as you walk in is a generous reception room which the current owners have as a bar area and entertaining room. This was once a double garage but has been converted to provide more accommodation and has lighting and heating. It’s a great addition to the home, there’s plenty of space for a bar, dining table, and sofa with ample floor space left to play with. Owing to this large footprint this room could be suitable for a variety of uses, offering lots of potential for family life. It could be a home gym, playroom, large home office and study, or you could keep it as an entertaining room for having fun with family and friends! Alternatively, the garage doors are still on the outside wall, so you could always convert back to a double garage if preferred.

To the rear of the home and the beautifully bright and airy kitchen and open plan dining area is a delightful space, and as mentioned above, you might think you are in the middle of the countryside with the lovely green outlook of the treetop canopy at the rear! The cherry on top is a balcony where you can sit and enjoy the peace and quiet while sipping your morning coffee.

The kitchen itself is presented in fantastic condition with a country aesthetic to match the outlook, where shaker style sage cupboards complement the solid oak worktop, white tiled splashbacks, and brushed chrome fittings. And the island to which the dining table sits adjacent makes it a superb social hub for enjoying with loved ones. Integrated appliances include a Belling range cooker with multiple ovens, five plate gas hob and matching Belling extractor hood, country style porcelain sink and drainer with brushed gold tap with instant hot water function, dishwasher, fridge, freezer, and microwave. Everything is here for you to conveniently move in without lifting a finger.

Next to the kitchen and open plan dining room on the middle floor is one of two lounges, which are both good sizes and offer plenty of space for family life. The lounge on the middle floor has a Juliet balcony with French doors and floor to ceiling windows taking full advantage of the tranquil setting at the back while streaming in plentiful natural light, and a wood burning stove creates a lovely homely vibe providing a cosy warming glow during winter.

Directly beneath the lounge on the middle floor is a second lounge, and due to its position on the lower ground floor it benefits from direct access onto the gorgeous garden via large glass sliding doors, again creating a lovely bright and airy vibe. This second lounge is super handy for family life, ensuring there’s enough space for everyone, giving the option for mum and dad to have a more formal sitting room, and a family room too!

Other Convenient Features - In addition to the generous amount of attractive living space, this fantastic family home also benefits from ample storage, including under the staircase, which also doubles as a utility area with plumbing for the washer and dryer. And another box ticked for modern family life is a guest WC, which is suitably situated off the hallway on the middle floor.

Bedrooms & Bathrooms - Like the living space on offer here, the bedrooms and bathrooms provide plenty of space for family life, situated on the lower ground floor and the top floor too…

The master bedroom is situated on the lower ground floor benefitting from the same outlook onto the leafy green garden as the second lounge – it has a nice feeling similar to that of a hotel room with the large glass sliding doors opening straight out onto the garden patio – so lovely! The master also boasts a spacious en-suite with his and hers vanity basins, WC, bath with shower and white tiled surrounds, and contemporary neutral tiling to the floor and walls.

On the lower ground floor is another bedroom which the current owners are currently using as a walk in wardrobe and dressing room, but there’s plenty of space for it to be a good sized bedroom. Back up the stairs to the top floor…

There are three more bedrooms on the top floor, all good sized doubles and presented to good standards. The bedrooms at the back benefit from that same lovely green outlook, and the one at the front has a sloped ceiling with a Velux window, making it quite a cool bedroom for one of the kids.

Also on the top floor is the family bathroom. Presented to fresh contemporary standards with complementary tiling to the floor and walls, the three-piece suite includes a bath with shower, WC, and wash basin.

The Outside Space - In addition to the double drive at the front, 17 Hamnet Close boasts a brilliant back garden, it is very private with several seating areas and a large lawn leading down to the woodland and Eagley Brook at the bottom. There’s a built-in BBQ at the top patio too! You can often see deer and other wildlife owing to its position bordering the natural setting.

A Well Connected Suburb - As well as the peaceful green nature on your doorstep, the property is located within a well-connected suburb, with a variety of good schools and amenities within a few minutes’ drive... Starbucks is within a ten minute walk, Lidl and Asda are just a few minutes’ drive down Blackburn Road in Astley Bridge, and the neighbouring areas of Bromley Cross and Egerton provide a selection of smaller shops, pubs cafes and restaurants.
