This weekend Thornley Groves is extending a very special Open House invitation to come along and view not one but TWO stunning properties standing opposite one another on the much sought after and best stretch of Carrwood in Hale Barns…

The event will take place this Saturday 4^th September at numbers 15 and 18 Carrwood for an hour and a half between 11am and 12:30pm. No appointment is necessary and a member of the Thornley Groves team will be on hand at each so that viewers can kill two birds with one stone and go from one relaxed viewing straight onto the other!

Both of these stunning properties are stylish multi-million pound family homes being brought to the market at extremely affordable prices and offer modern high specification living throughout.

Number 15 Carrwood is a substantial detached home that is on the market for £1.475m. Previously marketed at £1.8million and is now available at a very substantial discount to reflect the vendors realism in the current marketplace, anyone looking for a genuinely good buy with massive potential to further enhance the property’s value should waste no time in viewing this particular property.

In addition to its 4 double bedrooms 15 carrwood features desirable accommodation throughout – far too much to list in detail here – but includes extremely well proportioned living room, impressively fitted and styled kitchen/dining area, study, utility room, office, landing, and impressive secluded gardens to the front and rear including tarmacadam driveway accessed via large wrought iron gates.

18 Carrwood is on the market for £1.575m and offers similar refurbishment/redevelopment opportunities for a high value asking price.This a rare chance to create something that can be remodelled specifically to your own requirements, on one of the area’s most prestigious roads. The plot measures approx 0.57 acres in total, sits towards the head of the culdesac, and is barely visible from the roadside.

Inside this imposing home the marble floored reception hallway leads you into impressive drawing room, sitting room, and dining room, with an additional dining kitchen divided into two areas. On the first floor, the spacious double bedrooms include a number of desirable features including en-suite bathroom and en-suite dressing room.

Resting in the secluded spot of Carrwood Drive, one of the most desirable roads in the area, these two properties offer great access to both Hale Village and the historical market town of Altrincham, as well as good access links to Manchester City Centre, providing the perfect blend of quiet seclusion and modern family living.

Now is a great time to buy a home in the South Manchester suburb of Hale, with market factors including seasonal fluctuation lowering the entry point for high specification properties such as these.

As the leading Hale Estate Agent we understand that anybody who can afford properties as nice as this probably already have a nice home of their own, but the opportunity to own such extensive high specification homes at such a low cost and resultantly still have the funds left over to modernise to your own specifications does not come along very often.

So please come along and join us this Saturday 4^th September between 11am -12:30pm and let us know what you think of them!

Like to view but can’t come this Saturday between 11am and 12:30pm? Call Stuart Howe – Branch Manager for Thornley Groves in Hale – on 0161 941 4137 for an appointment to suit you.

The Hale and Altrincham offices of Thornley Groves Estate Agents have reported a 300% increase in sales agreed in the 3 months of September October and November 2009 compared with the same period last year.

Branch Manager Glyn Reacroft confirmed that viewings on properties for sale in the same period increased by 34% to 2405 even though stock levels are 30%  lower than this time last year.

Glyn commented that now is a great time to list your home if you are considering a sale in the next 6 months rather than waiting until after Christmas with more buyers looking and buying and fewer than normal properties being offered for sale.

Serious home seller slashes price to attract millionaire bargain hunters – asking price is now £1 million below recommended asking price! 

When a home owner drops his asking price by more than half a million pounds you know he means business!

Such a large reduction in the asking price of a house could be interpreted as a sign either that the home owner is desperate to sell or that the original asking price was unrealistic, however in the case of the proposed sale of 47 Carrwood Hale Barns neither is true.

With an original asking price of £3,850,000 the house was taken to the market at a figure deemed by several local agents to be below the £4.25 million mark at which the house should have been marketed, as the owner wanted to under cut the competition and ensure that his property  represented good value when it came to the market in October 2008, after all at that time the media daily dose of doom and gloom for all things related to the economy and the housing market was at its peak.

So when you consider  the recommendations of agents back in October 2008 and combine today’s reduction with the original below market value asking price this house is available for one million pounds less!

The reason for this show of realism on the part of the vendor is simply because the house is now surplus to requirements as he is spending more and more time at his other homes and he realises that in this market buyers expect a bargain and by any measure we think discerning home buyers who take the time to come and look at this magnificent home and compare it to anything else in the area at a similar price they too will conclude that it represents superb value for money – an opportunity not to be missed !
