Description

You can simply move in and put your feet up with this one! The conventional layout has been altered and allows for a more spacious and workable ground floor space, ideal for family living and entertaining. Offering complete privacy to the front and rear, this rarity is certainly an unexpected one, all thanks to its elevated and set back position along Chester Road.

Walking through the accommodation, there is a hall leading into the open plan kitchen/dining room where the kitchen has been finished with stylish polished base and wall units, with solid woodwork surfaces. Integral appliances create a seamless finish and include a fridge-freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, oven, grill and a four-ring gas hob. From the dining area, French doors lead out to the rear garden, making it an ideal entertaining space. The lounge comes complete with a lovely bay window and fireplace with inset wood burning stove, creating perfect focal points. To the first floor there is a landing with window to the side, three bedrooms and an attractive fitted bathroom, complete with a white three-piece suite and large white tiling to the walls, while contemporary tiling to the floor finishes the look of the room off perfectly.

Turning to the outside; to the front there is a lawn garden with curved paved pathway leading to the front door, while a gate to the side allows for access to the rear garden. Parking is provided for at the rear, where the driveway has space for two cars and gated access to the garden. The garden is a lovely size and offers the perfect combination of lawn and patio seating.
 
A great home, in great condition, in a great area!

The Seller’s View!
Purchased as our first home, this property has been the perfect place for both entertaining and raising our child. With local amenities just a short walk away, excellent primary and secondary schools nearby, and Chester City centre only a 20-minute walk, the location was what first drew us in — and it has remained one of our favourite things about living here. We’ve been fortunate to have friendly neighbours who create a real sense of community. The private driveway offers extra security and comfortably accommodates two large cars. The back garden enjoys afternoon sunshine, making it ideal for family BBQs and gatherings on the patio.
