OF INTEREST TO DEVELOPERS, INVESTORS & PRIVATE INDIVIDUALS

Descripton - Hetherall is a real rarity to the market, offering the opportunity to renovate and extend a lovely, detached period house, located in the quiet rural hamlet of Hetherson Green, which is mostly surrounded by Cholmondeley Estate land, providing a high degree of security.

The cottage needs complete renovation and is ripe for extension, with a large substantial outbuilding to the rear that also has potential for conversion into residential (all subject to the necessary consents being obtained). The house has much charm and at present has a suite of good sized, light rooms, with great ceiling height to both floors, with outstanding far-reaching views from every elevation. This house really does enjoy a very special spot.

A front entrance hall with staircase to the first floor, leads to the generously proportioned sitting room which is dual aspect, with door leading through to the dual aspect family room with log burning stove and door to a large cloak’s cupboard. The family room lies adjacent to the kitchen with large picture window overlooking the rear gardens and paddock land. There is also a door leading to the rear gardens/parking area.

The first floor has two, good sized dual aspect double bedrooms with lovely far-reaching views, with the family bathroom situated between the bedrooms.

Garden & Paddock Land - A gated drive flanked by the front garden to the left and the paddock land to the right, leads to the rear of the house, where there is a parking and turning area for numerous cars.

The pretty front garden is bounded by mature hedging to either side and consists of level lawns with a stone path leading down to an ornate metal pedestrian gate opening onto the rural lane.

To the rear, lying to adjacent to the parking, is a white painted brick and slate outbuilding of considerable size which has much scope to be converted into residential (subject to the necessary consents). At present the outbuilding houses numerous useful storerooms.

There is a tin car port that lies by the parking area. The two paddocks wrap around the house and have the benefit of being old turf, with an open fronted timber field shelter, in need of repair, which would subject to planning make an ideal spot for a stable block. This, with the combination of quiet rural lane hacking, makes the house ideal for the equestrian buyer.

Location - Hetherall has the most magical situation, located in the small, attractive hamlet of Hetherson Green, which is surrounded by rolling Cheshire countryside. The renowned Cholmondeley Arms public house, village shop/cafe and castle with historic gardens and parkland are all within a short drive.

The house is only 4 miles from the popular and historic village of Malpas with a fine Gothic Church, two public houses, a bustling high street with a CoOp, coffee shops, doctors, dentist, restaurants and deli. The outstanding rated Bishop Heber High school and sixth form is situated on the outskirts of the village, together with Malpas Alport Primary school.

The popular village of Tarporley is only 10 miles distant, with the larger conurbations of Whitchurch, Nantwich and Chester, all within an easy commute. Chester offers a good selection of private schools with Abbey Gate, Kings and Queens. Further afield are the well renowned schools of Shrewsbury School, Ellesmere College, Moreton Hall and Packwood Haugh Preparatory School. Chester also allows for easy access to the motorway network providing a link to other north west and midlands conurbations and to Liverpool and Manchester airports.

Commuting further afield is made easy by a train station at Whitchurch with a direct connection to Crewe, with trains taking less than two hours regularly going to London Euston. There are also train stations in Nantwich and Chester. The proximity of the A49 and A41 facilitates a fast commute to Liverpool, Manchester and Shrewsbury.

The leisure opportunities are also excellent. Portal Golf Club and Carden Park Hotel and Spa both have championship golf courses and a range of other facilities. The nearby Bickerton Hills, is a stunning area offering elevated walking trails, dramatic sandstone ridges and far-reaching scenic viewpoints, further enhancing the appeal of this exceptional location.
