Timperley is a popular family suburb between Sale and Altrincham, with streets of 1930s semis, post-war houses and larger detached homes. Many families move here for the schools, then find they need more space as the children grow.
The classic Timperley solution is a rear kitchen extension and a hip-to-gable loft conversion, which together add a family kitchen and a large extra bedroom. Two-storey side extensions and garage conversions are also popular.
