Description
guide price £3,000,000 | no onward chain
An award-winning Edwardian home, built in the Arts and Crafts style and extending to 7,318 sq ft, set privately behind gates on one of Hale’s most desirable no-through roads.
Restored and reimagined in recent years by the multi-award-winning Cheshire studio Design by uber, the transformation has been recognised at both the International Design & Architecture Awards and the sbid Awards, blending the home’s original period character with a calm, contemporary feel.
Arranged over four floors, it offers six bedrooms, five bathrooms, generous family and entertaining space, a show-stopping leisure level, a detached double garage and landscaped south-facing gardens, all about a mile from Hale village.
The main living space
The house works equally well for everyday family life and for entertaining. A bright reception hall, with steel-framed glazing and restored stained glass, opens through to a glazed dining orangery overlooking the garden. The kitchen is fitted with Wolf appliances and flows into generous dining and breakfast space, with doors onto the terraces. A separate drawing room and formal dining room give further reception space, and two broad south-facing terraces extend the living outdoors.
Bedrooms
The first floor centres on a generous main suite, with a seating area, a large dressing room and a hotel-style bathroom finished with an Antonio Lupi basin, a freestanding curved bath and a separate shower and steam room. Five further bedrooms sit across the first and second floors, along with the remaining bathrooms, giving flexible space for family, guests, a study or live-in help.
The leisure level
The lower ground floor is the show-stopper. What was once storage and a tired utility area is now a full entertaining floor, and the transformation here is the heart of the award-winning design.
On one side, a media room built around a bespoke unit with a polished-plaster surround and a ribbon fireplace framed in finely ribbed ebony, with deep corner sofas and soft mood lighting. On the other, an art-deco-inspired bar, first glimpsed through a teaser window as you come down the stairs, with glazed wine cabinets framing the doorway and an open floor that takes a pool table, a poker table or dancing.
Alongside sit a state-of-the-art air-conditioned gym looking out over the garden, a separate sauna and steam room, and a powder room.
Technology and security
Throughout the house, top-of-the-range Lutron lighting and Sonos sound, with full CCTV and smart security, all controllable from a phone. Solar panels help keep running costs down.
Gardens and parking
A gated entrance opens to a private drive with parking for several cars and a detached double garage. The south-facing gardens are designed for entertaining, with two terraces, landscaped planting and an eight-person hydrotherapy spa. The garage offers potential for an annexe, subject to the usual consents.
Location
Alan Drive is a quiet, well-regarded no-through road about a mile from Hale village, with its independent shops, restaurants and cafes, leading schools nearby, and easy access to Manchester, the airport and the motorway and rail network.
A rare chance to buy a substantial, turnkey period home with real character, modern family space and exceptional private leisure, in one of Hale’s best addresses.
Available with no onward chain.
Freehold. Council Tax Band H.
Location
This property is situated on arguably one of the finest no through roads in Hale. Well positioned within 1.2 miles of Hale village and 2.3 miles of Altrincham with an impressive range of restaurants, bistros and bars, specialist shops, cinema and supermarkets.

Access to the M56, M60 and M6 offer easy commuter links to the North West’s principal commercial centres and Manchester Airport is a ten minute drive. Altrincham Metro Link provides access to the City centre and beyond.
The educational establishments available locally are considered among the best in the country, with two State Grammar Schools, Altrincham Grammar School for Boys and Altrincham Grammar School for Girls. Other local schools are Loreto Grammar and Saint Ambrose College. There are outstanding private preparatory schools with Hale Prep and Altrincham Prep on the doorstep as well as excellent state junior schools such as St Vincent's primary. Local school bus routes run to some of the oldest and finest Private schools, such as The Manchester Grammar School, Withington Girls School and Manchester High School for Girls.
