Enveloped in countryside, the exclusive development of Hawkshaw Rise, finished in 2021, rises up from its tranquil surrounds to offer a 21st century way of living, close to transport links and excellent schools, yet a world away from the hustle and bustle.
Embracing both contemporary and classic design features, Hawkshaw Rise strikes a handsome pose, built in traditional stone with a prominent façade of glass to invite light throughout and a modern aluminium front door.
Securely gated to the front, the large driveway offers a sense of separation, also offering plentiful parking, leading to a double garage with electric opening doors and external lighting. There is convenient access from the garage directly indoors.
From the main front door, step through into the double height entrance hall, where an inset doormat catches the dew from your boots, before proceeding ahead. Warmth from the underfloor heating imbues the Porcelanosa, porcelain tiled flooring underfoot.
Transitioning onto herringbone flooring, make your way through to the gym on the left, overlooking the front lawn and the distant hills through full height glass to the front. An exclusive development, Hawkshaw Rise is home to only a handful of four homes, ensuring a sense of peace, privacy and prestige. Offering the full gym experience, a full mirrored wall features alongside built-in surround sound speakers. A versatile room, it could easily be repurposed as a second sitting room or playroom.
Returning to the entrance hall, admire the stunning oak and glass staircase with automatic low-level lighting, leading up to the first floor. Making your way along the entrance hall, there is cloakroom storage for coats and shoes on the left, alongside a handy downstairs WC with heated towel radiator and vanity unit wash basin.
Across the entrance hall, double doors open to the sublime cinema room, carpeted underfoot in grey and warmed by underfloor heating – a feature throughout the entire home on both levels.
With ample room for a pool table, this fantastic entertaining space also features an impressive media wall, with inbuilt shelving, storage and television. Sliding aluminium framed doors open to the elevated terrace and views at the front. Views extend in the distance towards the twinkling lights of Manchester.
Back in the entrance hallway, directly ahead from the front door, step through into the open-plan kitchen-dining room; the heart of the home.
Emerging initially into the dining area, light floods the space from the full height sliding doors, opening to a patio perfect for alfresco wining and dining in the summer months. Within easy reach of guests, the bespoke built-in bar with acoustic panelling on the left features a wine fridge.
Ultra-modern in its design, this bespoke fitted kitchen by the award-winning Diane Berry Kitchens is designed for contemporary living and ease of use. A range of handleless units and drawers ensures a sleek finish, with plenty of preparation space on the cool Corian worktops. A host of top-of-the-range appliances includes a down draught extractor induction hob in the central island breakfast bar whilst the cabinetry is laden with deep pan drawer storage alongside a dishwasher and an undermounted sink with instant boiling tap.
To the walls, hide and slide cupboards keep clutter concealed, opening to reveal a fitted Neff microwave oven, double Miele ovens, and an American style fridge-freezer.
Sliding doors open to provide instant access out onto the porcelain tiled patio, where a fully fitted outdoor kitchen includes oven, barbecue and lockable fridges.
To the right of the kitchen, glazed double doors offer a seamless transition to the formal lounge, allowing you to open up the rooms for practical party flow when entertaining. Grey carpet extends underfoot, with a stone fireplace containing gas fire. A truly exceptional lounge with sliding doors presenting pretty views out over the garden and countryside, opening to a large porcelain tiled patio for that instant connection to the outdoors.
Wrapping around from the kitchen, discover a boot room with access out to the drive and integrated garage. Tall, built-in storage cupboards provide plenty of storage, leading on to a utility area with sink, plumbing for washer and dryer and heated towel radiator.
The large double garage houses a plant room in the corner and provides access to the rear office, served by gas radiators and with a large picture window framing views to the garden, which can be easily accessed by patio doors.
When bedtime beckons, ascend the carpeted stairs to the glass-enclosed gallery first floor landing, where the airiness of the entrance hall can be fully appreciated, as light streams in from the front and above.
Bright and spacious, bespoke storage adds a warmth and traditionality to the home, opening at a touch to reveal deep storage alongside access to the underfloor heating manifolds for the first floor.
Taking a left from the top of the stairs, fitted full height GM Furniture wardrobes offer abundant storage in the first sumptuously sized bedroom. Large and luxurious, light serenades the space through full height windows, framing views out over Hawkshaw towards Manchester.
Coming out of this bedroom, discover the bountifully sized family bathroom on the left, fully tiled in grey Porcelanosa tiles, with walk-in double shower, modern WC and two-drawer vanity unit wash basin, heated towel radiator alongside a large bath with inset, retractable shower head.
On the left of the bathroom, a second extensive bedroom brims with GM Furniture fitted wardrobes, providing a plethora of storage space. Light and airy the vaulted ceiling enhances the spacious feel of the room, with large windows presenting stunning views out over the tiered garden and outlying countryside.
Along the landing, also looking out over the rear is a capacious principal suite, with fabulously furnished walk-in wardrobe, with shoe storage, shelving, and hanging space. Mirrored wardrobes with built-in drawer units and dressing table also feature in the main bedroom area, with socket and wall space for a television above.
Sliding doors bring the outdoors in, opening to a shallow composite decking area with glass balustrade where you can admire the view over garden and countryside to Holcombe Hill.
Above the bed, a plush grey bespoke headboard adds sophistication, with bedside cabinetry.
Refresh and revive in the ensuite where grey tiling covers the walls and floor, with feature tiles in the shower. With a separate bath containing retractable shower head, there is a wash basin with vanity unit storage and WC.
Finally, sneak a peek in the guest bedroom, with built in office desk area, storage and uniquely angled full height windows soaking up the views to the front. Throughout the bedrooms, bespoke fitted curtains are elegant and exquisite in their design. Step out onto the balcony and breathe in the fresh country air whilst admiring the far-reaching views.
Outside, tiered gardens offer low maintenance leisure to the rear of Hawkshaw Rise, whilst carefully considered porcelain paved patios and areas of decking allow you to soak up the sunshine, entertain and unwind.
Backing onto exquisite countryside, the sense of peace and serenity is palpable. Safe and secure for children and pets, the composite fencing to the sides ensures privacy, with the development accessible only via electric gates for vehicles and an electric gated pedestrian entrance, leading down to the road.
