The White House

Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman

Set in a plot of 0.48 acre, this is an exceptional family home offers a layout, specification and garden setting that is perfectly aligned with modern day living requirements. The present owners have resided in the house for just under twenty years and in that time have radically altered and improved every aspect of the accommodation so as to create a first class family home.

The house is large, extending to 3322 square feet in total with this figure also incorporating the excellent detached home office, which is located in the garden and provides an ideal work from home space.

Internally this house enjoys a unique design with the architect design superbly linking the gorgeous south west facing garden to the house, with large feature full height windows connecting the aspects of one to the other.

The ground floor is extremely flexible with three reception rooms and an outstanding bespoke kitchen dining and family area. The kitchen has a three oven gas AGA with AIMS control and module. This first class area provides the hub of family living. At first floor level all four bedrooms are of double proportion, two have their own en suite whilst two more share access to a first class bathroom with large shower enclosure. The main bedroom, mirroring the design of the kitchen below, has the large feature window overlooking the grounds and this rooms also has a vaulted ceiling, which provides additional impact.

The accommodation through is impeccable and the high specification notable. Features include underfloor heating to the ground floor extension, best in class fitted furniture in the family room and dining area, a superb kitchen with curved island unit, a wood burning stove, bi fold doors and luxurious bathrooms. It should though be noted that the specification of the outside is also unusually high. The size and quality of the terrace and patio makes it the perfect setting for alfresco dining and parties, whist the quality of planting, landscaping and layout of the garden has all been expertly planned. This is a setting of real privacy with no other house overlooking the garden.

Offered with no chain and priced competitively, a viewing is strongly recommended.

Location

Whitegate is a sought after semi rural area, situated between Hartford and Tarporley. The highly rated Whitegate CoE Primary School and pre-school are within short distance of the property, as is the Parish Church. The village pub, The Plough, is very popular as both a food and drink destination.

Whilst being conveniently located for all the aforementioned places, Whitegate boasts some lovely surrounding countryside, with the Whitegate Way and River Weaver close by for those who enjoy walking, cycling and horse riding.

Hartford village is just over five minutes drive away and has a number of shops and schools including the highly regarded Grange Junior and Senior School. Hartford also boasts a main line railway station to Liverpool and London Euston (with regular services taking about two hours).

There are also several golf clubs within short driving distance of the property, plus Vale Royal Abbey golf course within the village. Manchester and Liverpool International Airports can be commuted to in 40 minutes whilst railway links are offered at nearby stations including Hartford, Cuddington, Acton Bridge, Chester and Crewe. MediaCity UK, Salford can be reached in under 45 minutes drive.

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 Sandstone Ridges of Cheshire.

Whilst the area is renowned for its outstanding natural beauty, the house also offers an excellent base for the business traveller. In terms of road links, there are extensive connections to the M56, M6 and M53. The A49, A51 and A55 all link to key areas of commerce and interest. Whitegate is particularly convenient for the A556 Manchester to Chester link road.
