Description
A spacious penthouse that forms part of this desirable, purpose built development that is situated at the foot of Drury Lane, in the heart of the village. The property offers a generous amount of accommodation encompassing 1658 square feet which is ably supported by a large loft space for storage, comprehensive storage cupboards in the property and a detached, double garage at the rear. Ideally situated close to the excellent amenities within Dore and having plenty of space for couples, downsizers or small families who wish to be close to first class local schooling. Number five also commands a splendid, southerly facing view towards the moors from the recently renovated balcony that provides valuable, private external space.
Description - Southbourne Court was constructed by John Harding on the early 1970's and, typical of his style, the development features expansive living spaces, south facing balconies and the perfect balance of accommodation for a broad range of buyer. There aren't many apartments in the city (let alone the village) that offer the versatility of four bedrooms, two bathrooms, two generous reception rooms and their own, private balconies so the development has always been highly regarded and a great place to invest. The apartment also benefits from a large, south facing balcony which commands a splendid view towards the moors that sit proudly over the village skyline. The balcony was renovated in 2024 to include clear glass balustrading and composite decking to make a lovely space to entertain and unwind, particularly in the warmer months of the year. Apartment living can often have drawbacks with a lack of storage and poor proportions often being cited as negatives however number five certainly bucks this trend. There is a spacious loft (used by the owner but collectively owned by the residents) which is accessed from the wide and welcoming reception hall and a comprehensive range of built in storage cupboards can also be found in the hallway, ideal for coats and other sundries. Externally there is a detached double garage for car enthusiasts which also provides even more space for storage if required. People are naturally drawn to Dore Village because it is such a great place to live. With outstanding schooling and a strong sense of community, the village plays host to an annual gala on 'The Rec' along with other events on the village green and there are a number of busy pubs, restaurants and cafes that combine to make the area a popular destination for a night out and a great social scene. The beautiful surrounding countryside is always on hand and can literally be explored from your own doorstep and within thirty minutes you can find yourself on the top of Blacka Moor enjoying panoramic views, back towards the centre of town. The village is also very well connected by transport links, commuters can utilise regular bus services into town and the train station provides speedy links into the city centre or into the centre of Manchester via stops in the pretty villages of The Hope Valley. Sporting facilities also abound in the S17 postcode, there are two challenging golf courses and a driving range to hone your swing found in Bradway alongside rugby, tennis, squash and hockey facilities at Abbeydale Sports Club. Sheffield United's recent acquisition of the HSBC sports club will also be bound to make a positive impact on the desirability of the area and continue the upward trend of house prices making it a prudent place to invest.
