Beautiful £2m hilltop house just outside of Greater Manchester which overlooks National Trust park

A beautiful hilltop house that boasts unrivalled views across a National Trust park has come on the market and it is the dream family home. Found near the charming Cheshire village of Disley which sits just a stone's throw away from Greater Manchester, the six-bed property is on the market for a sum of £2,000,000.

Located just south of Stockport on the edge of the Peak District, the stunning home enjoys breathtaking views overlooking Lyme Park - a large estate managed by the National Trust with a mansion house, formal gardens and a deer park.

Put on the market by estate agents Gascoigne Halman, the property is available to buy for the first time since its current owners constructed it and it is described as a home that 'rarely comes to market'.

Sitting on a hill in an elevated position above the village, the house has been carefully designed to enjoy the eye-catching scenery from all areas.

Inside it has been finished with a contemporary interior style throughout and offers three floors of vast living space.

On the ground floor of the home there is a large open-plan living area with a kitchen dining area which leads into a family space, a separate lounge and a games room.

Up on the first floor is the master bedroom complete with a dressing room and large en-suite, as well as three double bedrooms and a cinema room accessed from the gorgeous galleried landing.

The second floor is home to another large lounge area, as well as two final bedrooms, one with an en-suite and a walk-in wardrobe.

Across the property there are various opportunities to take in the views of Lyme Park and beyond, from its beautifully raised circular garden, balcony, floor to ceiling windows and bi-fold doors from the living area that bring the outdoors in.

Richard Leece, branch manager at Gascoigne Halman said: “Lyme Edge is situated in arguably one of the most prestigious residential areas of Disley.

"A property with such sublime views across Lyme Park Estate rarely comes to market so this is an opportunity to purchase not only a fabulous modern home, but also once with priceless views."

“The property looks out towards The Cage, a folly built at Lyme in 1524 and reconstructed in the 1730s. Almost 300 years later it remains one of the iconic symbols of Lyme’s rich history and a delight that draws the eye across the undulating landscape," Richard said.

“The scenic vista this property offers across Lyme Park and beyond is breathtaking and only further enhanced by its extensive glazing and sweeping circular lawn."

Richard added: "It is a home that oozes sophistication while being equally suited to relaxed family time or entertaining on a grand scale.

"Built by its current owners less than 10 years ago, the house boasts an incredibly high specification including handcrafted Neptune kitchen and bedroom furniture.

"Three of the five bedrooms enjoy views across Lyme with the master bedroom also boasting a private balcony," he said.

“Disley itself has a great range of facilities and remains a popular choice for house hunters due to its close proximity to both the Peak District and Manchester city centre. Train times into Manchester are just 25 minutes, so this is the perfect property for those who want the best of town and country living. Who wouldn’t want to come home to a view like that."
