SELLER INSIGHT Set within a stunning 400-acre country estate that incorporates glorious open parkland and vast swathes of woodland is Heatherley Wood, a bespoke development of luxury properties that were completed in 2022. Number 28 is a very stylish four-bedroom family home that boasts over 1600 sq ft of beautifully designed living-and-entertaining space, as well as a large private garden.

“The house is absolutely gorgeous but it was the location that, for us, proved to be the biggest selling point,” says the owner. “Our immediate surroundings are wonderfully leafy and green and we have direct access to the parkland and woods so we feel as if we’re living deep in the countryside. However, it only takes around ten or fifteen minutes to drive into both Wilmslow and Macclesfield, we’re a stone’s throw from Alderley Edge, which has a really lovely selection of shops and restaurants, and it’s also where we can hop on a train and be in Manchester in around thirty minutes or London in just over two hours. So all in all it’s a place where we’ve been able to enjoy the best of both worlds.”

“In terms of the house itself, it’s a beautifully designed family home, built to a really high standard, and it has a fantastic layout, one that I’ve not seen before. We have an amazing open-plan kitchen, dining and living space that opens via bi-folding doors straight out onto the garden, and above the kitchen is a huge mezzanine lounge, from where we can enjoy incredible views. There’s a great sense of connection between the two spaces, but at the same time a really good degree of separation, which works beautifully when it’s just us here and also when we’re entertaining.”

“As I said before, the house has been built to a really high standard and the finish, from the kitchen and bathrooms right through to the décor is absolutely top-notch so the new owners won’t need to do a thing. However, the garden, which is currently just laid to lawn, is a real blank canvass that could be beautifully transformed by a keen gardener.”

“The kitchen is probably my favourite room in the house. It has beautiful Laura Ashley units, a huge island, which is great when we’re entertaining, and there’s space enough for a large dining table as well as a sofa. It’s a very sociable part of the house, and I particularly like the fact that when the sun is shining we can push back the bifolding doors and extend the room out into the garden.”

“It’s everything about the setting that I’ll miss most when we move,” says the owner.

“The nature, being able to step out of the front door and go for lovely long walks, or being able to hop in the car and go shopping or out for a meal. Also, as the house is in private grounds with Alderley Park security on site 24/7, it’s a place where I’ve always felt very safe and secure.”*
