AN impressive five-bedroom period home set in nearly an acre of private gardens has come onto the market for £2.5 million.

Eskdale, located on Legh Road, Knutsford, is a substantial detached property situated in a prime residential location within the Legh Road Conservation area.

According to the estate agent, Stuart Rushton & Co, the house 'stands proudly in an elevated position' and is set back from the road.

The spacious home offers an array of features for a family, including four reception rooms and three bathrooms.

The estate agents added: "A large central reception hall affords access to all four superbly proportioned reception rooms, ideal for both formal and informal entertaining."

The kitchen is complemented with ample storage and workspace, extending onto a utility room.

The remaining four bedrooms are serviced by two bathrooms.

Downstairs are cellars which the estate agents describe as 'offering excellent storage or the potential for further development to suit a variety of needs'.

They said privacy is assured as the house is approached via a private sweeping driveway.

This driveway also provides access to the detached garage.

The exterior is arguably the home's standout feature.

The Knutsford property is situated on a well-established garden plot extending to just under an acre, furnished with mature hedged boundaries and extensive lawns, providing a high degree of privacy.

Knutsford Station is just half a mile away, while Mobberley and Plumley stations are a little further at 2.6 miles and 2.8 miles respectively.
