GENERAL REMARKS
Comment by Mark Johnson FRICS @ Baker Wynne and Wilson
"A characterful town house set within a historic street scene, with all the connectivity of the market town centre on the doorstep."
With its half-timbered origins, it is rumoured that Frogge Row House began life as a coaching Inn, and its former shop front remains a charming reminder of the building's long and varied past. Later additions from around 1720 have layered further character onto the property, giving it the individuality that only centuries of evolution can create.
Homes like this seldom come to the market having we believe changed hands just twice in the last hundred years, the house has been a cherished family home, the quirks and details to which no modern building can replicate . Sensitively restored by the present vendors, it combines the charm of its heritage with the comfort and care of a well-loved home, with original features and period character found throughout, from characterful beams.
At the heart of the property is a truly magical feature: a two-storey enclosed and roofed courtyard. Flooded with light yet sheltered from the elements, it creates a dramatic and atmospheric space that can be enjoyed through different seasons, whether as a striking entrance hall, a reading room, an indoor garden, or a stunning place to entertain. It is a wonderful and unusual feature which sets the house apart from anything else on the market.
Step through the door from the house and leave the bustle of the town behind. The sunny walled 93 ft garden is a rare and secluded retreat, a private outdoor room that feels a world away from the centre of town. The garden walls provide complete privacy and a wonderful sense of calm, while creating a sheltered suntrap that can be enjoyed from the first days of spring through to the last golden evenings of autumn. A blue-sett paved seating area is the natural spot for morning coffee, long lunches, or a glass of something chilled as the sun goes down and offers a low-maintenance space for entertaining family and friends. Stone steps lead gently through the garden, adding character and a sense of discovery, while attractive brick-built planter beds are filled with a well-established variety of shrubs, trees, and plants. The mix provides colour, texture and interest through the seasons, and the mature planting softens the walls and adds to the feeling of seclusion.
The location is equally hard to better. Close to the centre of Nantwich, the house is just a short walk from the town's shops, cafés, restaurants, and markets, making everyday life wonderfully convenient. It is also ideal for families, with both primary and secondary schools within a short walk, so the school run is easy and car-free.
Offering history, personality, and presence, in one of Cheshire's most admired market towns, this is a home with a lifestyle that is simply impossible to find in a modern property.
