7 bed semi-detached house for sale

Devonshire Park Road, Stockport SK2

Owned by the current family since 2006, this most imposing six/seven bedroom Edwardian residence is recognised as one of just nine locally designated ‘key historic buildings’, reflecting its architectural significance and enduring presence within Davenport Park.

Occupying a substantial corner plot on the inner side of the park, the property enjoys an enviable position with expansive grounds that enhance both its privacy and grandeur.

Approached via double opening gates, a sweeping driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to a detached garage. The exterior space continues to impress to the rear, where a large paved terrace offers an ideal setting for outdoor entertaining, complemented by generous lawned gardens with established borders, colourful flower beds and a thoughtfully introduced wilderness garden that adds a naturalistic charm.

An ornate porch sets the tone on arrival, leading through to a welcoming front door and into a spacious entrance hallway with a cloak area. The ground floor unfolds to reveal three substantial reception rooms, each offering versatility for family living, entertaining or working from home, alongside a separate breakfast kitchen that serves as a practical and sociable hub of the home.

The first floor hosts the principal bedroom, complete with a shower room ensuite, in addition to three further well-proportioned double bedrooms. A family bathroom and separate WC serve this level, maintaining both convenience and functionality for a growing household.

The second floor continues to provide excellent accommodation, featuring two further double bedrooms and a seventh bedroom accessed through one of the others, ideal for use as a nursery, dressing room or study. Two additional storage rooms are also located off the second floor landing.

From the main hallway, stairs descend to a full footprint cellar, presenting an exciting opportunity for conversion, subject to the necessary planning consents, and offering scope to further enhance the already extensive living space.

Throughout, the property is rich in original features and period character, combining timeless elegance with the scale and flexibility required for modern family life.

Its setting within Davenport Park further elevates its appeal, placing it within walking distance of Stockport Grammar School, Davenport Train Station with direct links to Manchester in under fifteen minutes, and Davenport Village. The nearby ‘Coffee to the Core’ van at the edge of the park adds to the charm of daily life here, while the park itself fosters a strong sense of community, with regular street parties, a street library and festive Christmas carol gatherings
