Description

Set in over an acre and enjoying a prime location with outstanding walks and cycle routes on the doorstep, an large family home of over 4000 square feet house with high quality two storey outbuilding.
Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman

Waste Lane has clearly established itself as the prime residential address within Kelsall village, due to the combination of high quality individual property and beautiful mature surroundings.

Without the need for a car, outstanding walks into the Willington Hills and `Little Switzerland' can be enjoyed. In my personal view, these are surely some of the best in the County, in terms of natural beauty and superb rural aspects.

It is also a road where high values are achieved, with two recent sales at and just under £1,500,000.

The property itself comprises a substantial three storey, six bedroom family house, a large detached outbuilding incorporating garage and gardens with the total plot being circa 1.3 acre.

The house opens with a spectacular reception hall that has galleried aspects to the landings over, superb wooden flooring and doors that lead to the principal reception rooms and living space. It really is a most welcoming and impressive entrance to the accommodation. The living room is of an excellent size and has an array of oak frame windows that take full advantage of the views of the formal gardens and countryside aspects beyond. The room itself is of a large proportion, has a woodburning stove with Cheshire brick surround as its focal point and a large wooden beam. Off the reception hall is a separate family room that is of pleasing square proportion and extremely adaptable to suit the needs of differing families. There is also at ground floor level a well proportioned study, shower room and utility room.
**
The key component for the modern day family is a large open plan breakfast kitchen and in this regard Delamere Farm excels itself. The breakfast kitchen comprises a superb range of wall and floor cupboards, together with solid black granite preparation surfaces, central island unit and delightful limestone flooring. There is more than ample space for a large table and chairs within the breakfast kitchen and there is also a high quality Aga that provides a focal point to the room. Directly accessed from the Breakfast Kitchen is a separate dining room that could alternatively be set out as a family room if required.

At first floor level the master bedroom has a fabulous en-suite facility in addition to walk in dressing room. On the first floor there are three further bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite and the other two which are served by a spaciousfamily bathroom. From the first floor landing lovely views can be enjoyed over the reception hall to the ground floor and up towards the second floor accommodation. Crowning the building is the second floor which has a style of a Manhattan style loft. There are two very large rooms, one which has an en-suite and there is in addition a useful walk in storeroom accessed from the landing.

Whilst the needs of most families will be catered for in the house itself, Delamere Farm also has the advantage of a fabulous detached outbuilding. The outbuilding incorporates at ground floor level a large double garage with under cover parking to the side, whilst there is also at ground floor level a reception room, a small kitchenette and cloakroom. At first floor in the building there are two large open plan rooms previously used as offices and in more recent times adapted as more of a leisure area. The outbuilding has numerous potential uses and would seem to be particularly ideal for those with children who are looking for a break out space, those who run a business from home or bigger families who regularly have guests staying and would wish to have separate accommodation within the same site as the principal residence.

As already mentioned the gardens and grounds are an absolute delight, being remarkably mature and established and also enjoying fantastic levels of seclusion and privacy. The total plot is circa 1.3 acre.

The house is approached via double electric gates that secure a long sweeping tarmacadam driveway. The driveway bends round leading to a large parking area immediately in front of the detached garage/outbuilding. The formal gardens to the house are an absolute delight and enjoy excellent levels of seclusion and privacy. At the front of the house there is a large lawn leading to a pond. The rear of the house is a paved terrace and a small lawn enclosed by walling and hedging whilst the side garden is a superb area of well tended lawn which includes well stocked beds and borders and a brick and tile garden shed.

This is a home that is ready to be moved into and enjoyed whilst also offering further potential for the next owner to embed their own ideas, design concepts and modern contemporary quality.

For a personal description of the property or to arrange a viewing, please contact myself or the Gascoigne Halman Tarporley office.

The area as a whole has access to glorious countryside and places of significant interest that include ancient castles, boating facilities on nearby canals and the outstanding Delamere Forest.

There are a number of pubs in the village, but worthy of particular attention is that in recent times Brunning & Price have completed their full refurbishment of the pub in the centre of the village, The Morris Dancer. This outstanding public house/restaurant has already been met with wide acclaim and is worthy of inspection along with The Boot Inn, famous to all locals for the amazing homemade pies!
