Description

A rare and distinguished opportunity presents itself to acquire this remarkable residence, set amidst approximately 1.2 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds. The property boasts two separate auxiliary buildings, each currently configured as two-bedroom annexes, complemented by an outdoor heated swimming pool, a sunken hot tub, a summer house, and granted permission for the construction of a triple garage. Enviably positioned with open views over rolling fields and countryside, the home offers easy access to Stockton Heath and Warrington, as well as the M56 motorway, located less than two miles away, affording superb connectivity to both North-South and East-West motorway networks. Rail links nearby provide swift access to London, with journey times of around 1 hour 40 minutes.
Approached via electric gates along a picturesque, tree-lined driveway, the residence sits behind a frontage exceeding half an acre, assuring privacy and tranquillity away from the road. Upon entering the principal house, a central hallway with guest WC immediately reveals the home’s charming character features. Three reception rooms provide generous, adaptable living spaces, while a substantial conservatory with underfloor heating offers an impressive entertainment area complete with a bar. The kitchen enjoys classic country styling, featuring a Rangemaster cooker, granite worktops, and a central island for informal dining. A utility room and gardener’s WC complete the ground floor accommodation.
A sweeping galleried landing leads to the first floor, where four double bedrooms await. The principal suite features an en-suite with steam room and shower, while a spacious family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.
Externally, the property is enveloped by meticulously maintained gardens extending to 1.2 acres, dotted with mature trees and an allotment area. Several patio terraces bask in sunlight by day and are atmospherically lit by night, offering pergola seating, a heated swimming pool, and a sunken hot tub. The summer house, with sliding doors, provides covered seating and an area for gym equipment.
The former double garage has been transformed into a spacious two-bedroom annex, enhanced by a large conservatory and benefitting from a kitchen, living area, and shower room. This offers a superb detached home for a relative or versatile office space.
To the rear of the grounds sits a charming chalet-style annexe, currently arranged with two bedrooms, a kitchen, living space, and a shower room. An attractive terrace patio to the rear takes full advantage of the open countryside vistas.
This exceptional property offers substantial scope for further development, including the option to construct a triple garage under permitted development.
Offered with no onward chain, this unique residence promises an enchanting lifestyle in a tranquil and highly accessible location.
