Turnkey home is a term that describes a fully completed property that is ready to move into with no further works required. In fact if there were pictures in the dictionary, a picture of this one would be sitting right alongside it. It's a massive credit to the vendors as they have spared no expense to the make this the ideal home for the next buyer from the simple things like decor and maintenance to those big jobs like kitchens and bathrooms. For first time buyers looking to get on the busy Gatley housing ladder, this could be the perfect first home and families are also going to love this location.

This could be one of Gatley's most enviable locations for those house hunting as you are sitting right down a quiet cul-de-sac. You've got the ideal mix of school catchment with easy access to outstanding rated schools such as Gatley Primary School, Crossacres Primary and more, all within walking distance; plenty of amazing green spaces to explore like Gatley Park, Gatley Carrs and Abney Hall Park; you've got motorway access across the North West, regular trains to Manchester city centre, bus routes to the Airport, hospitals and Media City, bike routes down the Mersey; and Gatley Village is just a short stroll away with a range of independent and small chain shops, bars and restaurants! That's not forgetting you are just down the road from Cheadle Village too.

The house has to be the star of the show though, and you enter the home from the walled front garden and driveway into the large entrance hall. The hall provides access to all the downstairs rooms including the downstairs WC. Each room has its own features and benefits. The front room which is currently set up as the dining room has the large bay window dragging in lots of natural light, in fact that bay window is crying out for a Christmas tree when the time comes around again. This room could easily be repurposed as the snug, adult living room, office or even an additional bedroom for those larger families - this is all thanks to the extension to the rear of the property which has massively increased the size of the living room. Taking the double doors into the living room at the rear, the first thing your eye is drawn to are the sliding doors into the garden but the scale of this room is impressive. Imagine being able to set up a home office facing the garden, a play area for the children or you could even bring the dining table in front of the sliding doors freeing up the front room.

Finishing off the ground floor you have the extended modern kitchen which was installed around 3 years ago and fitted with high end appliances. There is scope for those with an eye on a project to knock through the kitchen and living room to create a huge open plan living space.

Upstairs there is a more traditional layout with three bedrooms (each with their own features!) and the modern bathroom that was made larger by knocking the toilet through to the bathroom. In terms of the bedroom space the front room has the large bay window again, the back bedroom is larger and has the views over the garden while the third bedroom is the ideal space for a nursery, office if you work from home or simply used as a bedroom as there is enough space for a single bed.

Back outside into the garden, you've a low maintenance garden with a mix of gravel and established borders which is a sun trap as you can tell from the photos! It's the perfect space for the kids to play while you prepare dinner in the kitchen as there is a gate to the side meaning they can play safely. If you're more of an entertainer expect to be the house that hosts summer parties and drinks or maybe even the family BBQs. The detached garage is currently used for storage however you've got a few options here - Option 1: Leave as is and fill with your belongings. Option 2: convert into a home gym, summer room, office or outdoor kitchen. Option 3: Take it down and make the garden bigger to host bigger parties! Whatever you choose to do with the garden the vendors have set it up perfectly for the next buyer to just move in and enjoy.

So if this sounds like the ideal home for you make sure you pick up the phone today and quote GY0737 to get your viewing booked in.

Vendor's favourite features: "Living at Greenbank Avenue has given us the feeling that we’re at the hub of everything but yet in a very quiet part of Gatley: So easy to get to all the shops, bars, cafés and restaurants, great schools, the doctor’s, the vet’s and easy walks, but also within such easy reach of the motorway network, the train station to get into Manchester and all it has to offer, and, of course, the airport.

Modernising the house from top to bottom gave us the house that we wanted: Bringing the bathroom and kitchen into the 21st century, putting in the downstairs loo and opening up the dining room and living room to create a great big, bright, light living space. The first thing that we did was remodel the garden and whoever buys our lovely home will have the pleasure of the intoxicating smell of the Daphne shrub right by the front door in January/February, and the beautiful blossoms in the back garden.

We’re ready now to move onto our next chapter, but very happy to now handover our home to the next owner"
