Some properties have the features like no chain, some properties have the locations, some properties have the potential, some properties have sheer size and sometimes you get a property like this that has it all - this is a showstopper.

This home is one of six properties built by local shipwrights in the 1890s, what were shipwrights doing in Sale I hear you ask? Well that's a question for another day because all I can tell you is that they have left four unique properties behind that rarely come to market and generally stay in the same family for years ... Just like this one! This is your chance to purchase something a little bit different after over 60 years in the same family.

The location alone should sell this one - it's got the highlight reel of Sale's best bits. Strolling distance to Sale and Sale Moor Village? Tick. Short walk to Sale Metrolink? Tick. School catchment for primary and secondary? Tick. Easy motorway access? Tick. Close to Worthington Park and Walkden Gardens? Tick. Staggering distance from Cork of the North, Early Doors and The Steamhouse? Tick. Whatever you are looking for from your next home in M33 this location has it all - Albert Road is a quiet cul-de-sac off Derbyshire Road and is one of those closes that you don't know exists until a home like this comes to the market. This exclusive close is made up of nine homes and looks perfect for chucking your kids out to play in the street like in the good old days, just imagine the street parties you could host down there! The cul-de-sac has that perfect blend of being right in the heart of the action but still feeling secluded, if you currently live in Sale you'll realise there aren't actually that many houses that are strolling distance to the town centre but this property definitely is! You'll be able to make the most of Northenden road with it's range of independent shops, Sale Moor Village and it's thriving community and of course Stanley Square with it's numerous events, independent cinema, range of boutique bars, restaurants and shops as well as the established chains on the high street. Speaking openly though the huge draw to Sale has to be the schools and within half a mile you have Sale Grammar School, Springfield Primary School, Temple Moor Infant School, St Anne's CofE Primary School, Sale High School and St Joseph's Catholic School to name a few - what a choice! If you open that radius even a 1/4 mile more you'll find more of the same prestigious schooling options. But what about the adults and working? Well this home is perfect for those that work from home however if you do have to travel you've got the choice of the Metrolink, the bus routes, the cycle paths up the canal and of course the road and motorway network. Whatever commuter hub you are aiming for, Sale is the perfect location to live in.

That's enough about Sale though, the house really is the star of the show. It's not often you get the opportunity to take on a piece of history and make it your own. This property is sat here waiting for the next owner to come in and breathe life into this home but please make sure you retain all those character features like the large box windows with stained glass or oversized ceiling height because they just don't build them like this any more!

From the moment you step into the grounds of this property you are taken away by the grandeur of the home alongside the generous plot. You are welcomed off Albert Road onto a large driveway and down the side of the property with a path way to the left which leads to the front door through the beautiful shrubbery and trees. There is a small porch at the front that then leads to a large hallway providing access to all the ground floor rooms. To the front you have the first reception room with it's large bay window overlooking the front garden, then behind this is an equally stunning dining room. These aren't your average reception rooms though, these boast the opulence of the era they were built in with high ceilings, large windows drawing in the natural light and fireplaces prime for restoration.

The homes unique split level layout is shown off by the kitchen at the back being down a small flight of stairs but again this space is larger than the camera can take in being nearly 19ft long. There is a secret though - to the rear of the property there used to be an old coal house that has been removed at some point. This space behind the kitchen is crying out to be extended to make an enormous open plan living space that will become the heart of the home. You'll be the envy of your friends if you could add floor to ceiling sliding doors to the huge side garden. With a little bit of vision and engineering this could become the kitchen space that you see in the magazines combining cooking, dining and relaxation space. There is a small boot room attached to the kitchen currently that was added at a later date as well.

Back into the hallway you have access to the cellars that are currently unconverted but used as storage and mirror the two reception rooms upstairs meaning that you could easily look at a conversion as time goes on to add more bedroom space, playrooms, offices, annexe for Granny and Grandad or whatever would work for you and your family.

On the upper levels you have four double bedrooms, each with their own features and outlooks but there is something else making this property unique as two of the bedrooms have their own en-suite and there is a bathroom outside each of the remaining bedrooms too! This makes the property a four double bedroom home with four bathrooms! Not many modern properties can boast that, let alone properties of this period! Whether you have teenagers, young children, parents living with you or it's just you - this is more than enough bedroom space to make something special of this home especially considering if you convert the cellar space for an office you won't eat into any of the bedrooms!

Now to finish off the home you have to take a moment to appreciate this outside space. The garden wraps around three sides with the driveway way running along the side. This space could be completely remodelled to create more distinct spaces or for extensions or even adding a garage or carport. As you can probably see from the drone footage the side garden is a lot larger than you would expect. By moving the parking to the front you will have the entire side to play with to create something special. Whatever you decide to do with the space you'll have the perfect garden for the perfect family home in the perfect location and do you know what? That sounds like perfection to me!

Vendor's favourite features: "Albert Road has been a wonderfully safe place to grow up with everything being so close yet it's very private. This has been a wonderful family home with so much space and an amazing garden. We particularly like that the windows aren't overlooks and the sun comes through every window at some point during the day!"
