Who says the housing market is still flat?  Thornley Groves Estate Agents Hale sold this 3 bed semi detached on Clarke Crescent Hale within 14 days of coming to the market and achieved very close to the asking price.

Stuart Howe, Hale office Branch Manager for Thornley Groves, said “Judging by the amount of interest we were able to generate in this property in the cold and gloom of winter, we have proved that there are many buyers out there ready to buy if the right house comes along”

Thornley Groves’ cutting edge criteria matching software enables us to quickly home in on buyers looking for exactly the features of the property that we have for sale, meaning vendors don’t need to wait for months to see the results of local press advertising to obtain a market reaction on their property.

Michael Groves commented that many people have been aware of the recovery of the £500k to £800k Hale village market during the last year, but the recent sale of this sub £200k property shows that the starter home market, where first time buyers are supposed to be starved of mortgage finance, is by no means as dormant as the media would have us believe!

Open House THIS Sunday between 11:30am-1pm – No appointment necessary!

This Sunday 18^th July Thornley Groves – the leading Hale Estate Agent – will be opening up the doors of one of the most interesting and unique houses for sale in Hale, for one and a half hours between 11:30am and 1pm.

Situated in a Private Gated no through road off the highly desirable Bankhall Lane, Number 7, The Merridale, in Hale, Cheshire offers fantastic accommodation totalling 4,000 sq ft and is on the market for just £1,575,000.

This highly sought-after property provides 5 double bedrooms, 6 bathrooms (5 are en suite), breakfast kitchen, family room, and 3 superb reception rooms of which 2 open onto a large sundeck.

The house boasts large landscaped gardens enjoying an exceptionally high degree of privacy and adjoins protected open farmland which forms part of the Bollin Valley Conservation area with delightful River Side walks. There is also a self contained apartment perfect for the dependant relative or au pair, remote controlled double garage and additional parking for numerous cars.

This property really does provide a stunning family home in an extremely private location – within a short distance of Hale Village, yet enjoying enviable views over farmland.

The price gap between your current home and this one could be much smaller than you think and we appreciate that anyone who might be tempted to buy a house like this already has a nice home, one that they probably don’t want to part with unless they found something they’d really like to move to. So they haven’t even considered moving!

That’s why we’re having an open day; we want people to come and view who haven’t yet marketed, never mind sold their own home.

Often the catalyst for a move is finding a house you really like and we think buyers have been shy about asking to view properties over the last 18 months because they haven’t sold, but that’s how the market works in Hale.

So don’t be shy! Please take this Open House opportunity to come along and view this stunning property for yourself – even if it is just to compare it to your existing home and enjoy the enviable views!

Like to view but can’t come this Sunday between 11:30am and 1pm? Call Stuart Howe – Sales Manager for Thornley Groves in Hale – on 0161 941 4137 for an appointment to suit you.

This weekend Thornley Groves – the leading Hale Estate Agent – is inviting you to join us at an imposing 5 bedroom detached home on one of the most prestigious roads in the region.

We will be at Kelvin Cottage, Carrwood, Hale Barns, this Saturday 3^rd of July for one hour between 11am and 12noon. No appointment is necessary and we invite you to stop by for a relaxed and informal viewing of this home and walk around its impressive grounds.

Located on arguably the best plot on one of the area’s most prestigious roads, the Carrwood property is on the market for just £1,575,000.

Requiring some modernisation, this substantial cottage provides a superb opportunity for buyers looking to refurbish, and we would expect a £200k-£400k investment to enhance the value of the property by approximately twice the cost of refurbishment.

Prospective purchasers may even choose to demolish the existing property (subject to consent), and taking into account current build costs, we would estimate a total spend on a new home to be somewhere in the region of £2.5m, which given the property’s location, should result in a lucrative return of anything up to £4m.

But even before refurbishment or redevelopment, the Carrwood property is undoubtedly one of the most inviting houses for sale in Hale. In addition to its five bedrooms, the property boasts drawing room, breakfast kitchen divided into two areas, sitting room, dining room and detached double garage.

Outside, the house is approached through substantial electronically controlled wrought iron gates leading onto a long driveway complete with turning circle. The extensive rear gardens have been divided onto two levels, maximising the sunlight to this secluded spot.

Please feel free to join us at our Open House event this Saturday 3^rd July between 11am and 12noon and experience one of the premier houses for sale in Hale for yourself without appointment!

We will be opening the doors of 75 Byrom Street in Hale, Altrincham this Saturday 26^th June for one hour between 11am and 12noon. Please drop by for a relaxed viewing and experience this charming home for yourself firsthand.

The two bedroom terraced cottage on Byrom Street is competitively priced at just £205,000, with scope to update to your own tastes and specifications, making it ideal for first time buyers and buy-to-let investors.

This property is one of the more picturesque houses for sale in Hale, and comes complete with large living room with floor to ceiling cupboards, separate dining room, kitchen, two double bedrooms, and bathroom with sunken bath. An additional space has also been created in the loft which could be used as a functional hobby or play room.

Outside there is an enclosed courtyard at the rear of the property, with a smaller area at the front of the house paved for easy maintenance. The house is situated on the fringe of Hale village – one of the most sought after areas in south Manchester/north Cheshire – providing the perfect package of a homely residence in a highly desirable location.

But don’t just take our word for it – come along to our latest Open House to experience this charming property for yourself. Our Open House events have proven to be extremely popular in recent weeks with more than 30 groups attending last Saturday’s event in Hale, and two offers made for the property during the single viewing hour alone.

Last weekend Thornley Groves – the leading Estate Agent in Hale and Altrincham – opened the doors to an inviting Hale property with an hour long Open House viewing on Saturday morning.

The 3 bedroom Semi detached home on Hermitage Road welcomed more than 30 groups of interested viewers through its doors during just a single hour of Open House viewing, attracting two offers on the day and subsequent offers after the weekend.

This enthusiasm provides further evidence of the popularity of Open House events, while the level of solid interest that the Hale property has generated will be welcomed news for a market showing strong signs of recovery.

With over 3,500 purchasers registered across Manchester and more than 600 in the Hale area alone, Thornley Groves maintains a large database of interested buyers and for the right property the Open House formula is proving to provide the perfect environment for viewings.

This property is unique in that there aren’t too many houses for sale in Hale that provide the opportunity for modernisation, and with subsequent offers for the property having been received since the open day this appealing family home is now in high-demand. We will be inviting interested buyers to proceed to submit their best and final offer, thus avoiding a Dutch auction with constant rounds of negotiations. The successful buyer will be required to place a small, non-refundable deposit which prevents interested parties from submitting inflated offers that they would later renege upon.

“Every weekend Thornley Groves host Open House events to showcase their client’s properties, and are one of the only Estate Agents in the area to do so,” said Mike Groves, Managing Director of Thornley Groves Estate Agents. “Home buyers can often be reluctant to arrange viewings if they have not yet placed their own home on the market, but when you have a unique property like this, seeing it firsthand can often be the catalyst to make that move. These Open House formats are proving extremely popular amongst buyers, and we hope to host even more in the near future.”
