959 Manchester Road, Bury, BL9 8DN WATCH THE VIDEO TOUR FOR THIS PROPERTY Contemporary Family Living, Reimagined Extensively renovated and thoughtfully redesigned over the past five years, this substantial five-bedroom detached residence combines impressive proportions with luxurious modern finishes to create a home perfectly suited to contemporary family life. Positioned on Manchester Road in a highly convenient residential setting, the property offers over 2,600 sq ft of beautifully presented accommodation arranged across three floors. At its heart lies a stunning open-plan kitchen, dining and family room where a striking wall of glazing frames the garden beyond, creating a seamless connection between inside and out. Elegant design features, premium fixtures and carefully considered finishes run throughout, while the generous room sizes provide flexibility for both family living and entertaining on a grand scale. With five bedrooms arranged across the upper floors, including a superb principal suite with dressing room and en suite, three bathrooms, a dedicated home office, extensive parking and a landscaped garden designed for year-round enjoyment, this is a home that balances practicality with style in equal measure. Welcome Home Set behind a smart block-paved driveway providing parking for multiple vehicles, this handsome detached home immediately stands apart from its neighbours. Crisp rendered elevations, anthracite-framed windows, manicured planting and a striking modern entrance door create an impressive first impression, while an EV charging point ensures the property is equipped for modern family life. Step inside and you're greeted by a beautifully presented entrance hall, where large-format porcelain tiles, oak doors and a glazed staircase combine to create a sophisticated introduction to the home. Views through to the garden beyond immediately draw the eye, hinting at the remarkable open-plan living space that awaits at the rear. Positioned at the front of the house, the dedicated home office offers an ideal environment for remote working, studying or running a business from home. Generous in size and enhanced by a broad front-facing window fitted with plantation shutters, it is a genuinely versatile room that could equally serve as a playroom, snug or hobby room if required. Also located at the front of the property, the separate lounge provides a calm and comfortable retreat from the social heart of the home. The large bay window, fitted with plantation shutters, creates a bright and welcoming atmosphere, while the generous proportions and neutral décor provide the perfect setting for quieter evenings, reading or simply unwinding away from the bustle of family life. A practical utility room and guest WC add convenience to everyday family life, discreetly positioned away from the principal living spaces. The Heart of the Home Without question, the showpiece of the property is the breathtaking open-plan kitchen, dining and family room stretching across the entire rear of the house. Reimagined as part of the comprehensive renovation, this remarkable space has been designed around modern family living, where cooking, dining, entertaining and relaxing seamlessly come together beneath one roof. Sunlight streams in through a series of rooflights overhead and an impressive wall of sliding glass doors spanning the rear elevation, creating a wonderful sense of openness throughout the day. The porcelain tiled floor, warmed by underfloor heating, flows uninterrupted through the space and out onto the terrace beyond, strengthening the connection between house and garden. Designed and installed by Diane Berry, the kitchen combines clean, modern styling with outstanding practicality. Quartz worktops wrap around a substantial central island, creating both an eye-catching focal point and a natural gathering place for family and guests. Statement Italian pendant lighting is suspended above, while illuminated shelving and carefully integrated lighting contribute to the room's refined feel. A comprehensive suite of appliances includes twin Neff ovens, a full-height fridge, full-height freezer, integrated dishwasher, wine fridge and a Quooker boiling-water tap. Extensive storage and generous preparation space ensure the kitchen is as functional as it is beautiful. Beyond the kitchen, the family area centres around a striking bespoke media wall finished in Venetian plaster and incorporating a contemporary feature fireplace. Positioned to enjoy views across both the garden and terrace, it provides a wonderfully comfortable setting for everyday living, whether that's family movie nights, weekend gatherings or simply unwinding at the end of the day. The dining area is equally impressive. Large enough to comfortably host family celebrations and dinner parties, it is elevated further by statement lighting and a dramatic Venetian plaster feature wall incorporating gold leaf detailing, creating a sophisticated backdrop that immediately captures attention. During the warmer months, the full-width sliding doors transform the room entirely. Opening directly onto the porcelain terrace, they blur the boundaries between house and garden, creating a superb entertaining environment where guests can move effortlessly between the indoor and outdoor seating areas. It's easy to see why the current owners describe this as their favourite part of the home – a space equally suited to relaxed family breakfasts, summer barbecues and large-scale entertaining. Space for the Whole Family A striking galleried landing forms an attractive focal point to the first floor, where glass balustrading, bespoke oak detailing and large windows combine to create a welcoming sense of space. The principal suite provides a wonderful private retreat. Beautifully presented throughout, the generous bedroom enjoys excellent proportions, a charming bay window fitted with plantation shutters and ample space for both sleeping and seating areas. A bespoke walk-in dressing room offers extensive fitted storage, while the recently remodelled en-suite shower room has been finished to an outstanding standard with large-format marble-effect tiling, a Hansgrohe rainfall shower, floating Ambiance Bain Joya cabinetry and high-quality sanitaryware. In addition to the principal suite, the first floor offers two further bedrooms, both presented in a tasteful neutral palette. These rooms provide flexible accommodation for children, guests, nursery space or home-working requirements, depending on individual needs. Completing the floor is a beautifully appointed family bathroom, comprehensively remodelled to create a spa-inspired environment. A striking freestanding bath takes centre stage, complemented by a large walk-in rainfall shower, contemporary vanity unit, premium fittings and elegant marble-effect tiling. Finished to an outstanding standard throughout, it provides a calm and sophisticated space in which to relax and unwind. Second Floor Accommodation Occupying the upper level of the property, the second floor offers superb flexibility for modern family living. Two generous double bedrooms provide excellent additional accommodation, each finished to the same high standard seen throughout the home and enjoying attractive views across the rear garden and surrounding area. A contemporary shower room serves the floor, featuring a spacious walk-in shower, modern sanitaryware, heated towel radiator and rooflight. Completing the accommodation is a substantial eaves storage area, providing extensive practical storage and helping to keep the living spaces uncluttered. This floor works particularly well as a dedicated space for older children, guests or extended family, offering a comfortable degree of separation from the principal bedroom accommodation below. A Garden Designed for Outdoor Living The rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to create a striking yet practical outdoor environment, perfectly complementing the style of the home. Extending seamlessly from the rear of the property, an expansive porcelain terrace provides a superb setting for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxation. With ample space for both dining and lounge furniture, it serves as a true extension of the living accommodation and is perfectly positioned to enjoy the outlook across the garden. Beyond the terrace, a generous artificial lawn creates an attractive central focal point, framed by beautifully maintained raised planters, established planting and smart fencing. To the rear of the garden, a dedicated seating terrace offers a peaceful retreat for evening drinks or informal gatherings, creating distinct zones for both entertaining and everyday family enjoyment. The garden has been designed with ease of maintenance in mind while retaining a strong visual impact, resulting in an outdoor space that is as practical as it is impressive. A useful garden shed provides additional storage for tools and equipment, while the enclosed setting offers an excellent degree of privacy. Looking back towards the property, the garden provides a wonderful perspective of the home's striking rear elevation, showcasing the scale and quality of the accommodation arranged across three floors. Together with the seamless connection to the principal living space, it creates a superb setting for modern family living and entertaining.
