## Description

LW005

An attractive three-storey cottage-style modern end mews home in a highly sought-after village location. Set within the desirable village of Tarporley, 8 Orchard Cottages offers an appealing blend of traditional character and practical modern living. Positioned on Eaton Road, the property enjoys convenient access to the village centre while benefitting from a peaceful residential setting.

The accommodation is thoughtfully arranged over three storeys, creating a flexible and comfortable layout that suits modern living while retaining a welcoming cottage atmosphere.  The spacious rooms and light airy feel makes this a lovely home for all and the ample storage is an added bonus.

On the ground floor, the property is entered via an entrance hall which leads into modern kitchen with fitted appliances.  To the rear there is a large open plan living room with a log burner and provides direct access via french doors to the courtyard garden, making it ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.
