About this property
Albert Lodge – A Masterpiece of Period Charm and Modern Elegance
Nestled on a most desirable private road, this striking mid-Victorian residence effortlessly blends timeless architecture with contemporary comfort. Framed by handsome brick elevations and surrounded by exquisite gardens, the home exudes character and sophistication from every angle. A true gem within the Heatons, this is a property that promises a lifestyle as impressive as its design.
As you step inside, the extended hallway immediately sets the tone — welcoming and architecturally distinctive, with a split-level layout and a sleek steel turning staircase that anchors the space beautifully. The bay-fronted living room invites you to relax, with its charming multi-fuel fire set into a feature chimney breast. At the heart of the home lies an open plan dining area, ideal for entertaining or quiet evenings alike. The impressive orangery at the side, framed by exposed brickwork and opening through French doors to the gardens, completes the ground floor with a brilliant sense of style.
The turning staircase leads down to the expansive lower ground floor, where a spectacular open plan dining kitchen awaits. Measuring over 30 feet in length, this thoughtfully designed space is both stylish and functional. High gloss units, integrated appliances, and complementary surfaces are offset by characterful exposed brick walls and considered lighting. This level also includes a practical inner hallway, a separate utility room, a contemporary shower room, and a serene double bedroom featuring floor-to-ceiling wardrobes and even more exposed brickwork — a perfect blend of style and comfort.
Ascending from the main floor, the first-floor landing leads to two generous bedrooms that capture the home’s Victorian soul, each filled with light and presence. A separate single shower room and a traditional three-piece bathroom suite add further convenience. With the appropriate planning permissions, there is scope to create an al fresco terrace above the extended hallway — currently adorned with greenery — offering even more lifestyle potential.
Throughout the home, period details such as original skirting boards, ceiling coving, and sash windows sit harmoniously alongside modern features like a contemporary gas central heating system, column radiators, and premium flooring.
Beyond the walls, the property continues to impress. Accessed via double wrought iron gates, the gardens are a true sanctuary. Mature, zoned, and thoughtfully landscaped with intelligent lighting and planting, they provide an exceptional setting for outdoor living. A pea gravel driveway provides off the road car parking, and an EV charging point can also be found.
Tucked away in a peaceful enclave of Victoria Grove, yet within easy reach of Heaton Chapel station and its direct links to Manchester Piccadilly, the location balances serenity with connectivity. The local area boasts a vibrant social scene, with a wealth of bars, restaurants, and amenities to explore.
This is not simply a house — it is a home of rare quality, heart, and history.
Agents Notes: Homes of this age seldom become available in The Heatons. An early viewing is essential to avoid disappointment.
