Description

OVERVIEW ** Fields Cottage is a beautifully situated four/five-bedroom country home set in a truly peaceful and idyllic rural setting on the English/Welsh border, a hidden corner surrounded by rolling open countryside and quiet country lanes, it enjoys far-reaching views in all directions.

Combining the tranquillity and charm of a rural retreat with easy access to nearby market towns, business centres, and transport links, this delightful home offers spacious, versatile, and highly flexible accommodation, readily adapting to a variety of lifestyles and requirements. Whether accommodating a growing family, providing space for multi-generational living, supporting home working, or offering comfortable guest accommodation, the layout lends itself exceptionally well to modern living.

Lovingly cared for and enjoyed by the current owners for over 45 years, the property has been a much-loved family home, offering warmth, character, and a wonderful connection to its beautiful surroundings. 

LOCATION Offering the perfect balance between country living and everyday convenience, the property is close to the bustling South Cheshire village of Malpas, with its excellent range of shops & amenities, while the larger centres of Whitchurch and Wrexham (with the Maelor Hospital), are only a short drive away. There are several highly regarded schools in the area, and the property is equidistant between the Bishop Heber and Maelor schools.

The property is especially well placed for the commuter, with easy access to the Wrexham and Chester as well as Liverpool and Manchester via the wider motorway network, while Crewe station gives speedy linkage to London. 

DETAILED DESCRIPTION A front entrance hall leads into a large cloakroom with ample space for coats, boots, and everyday storage. To the left is a spacious lounge featuring a log burner set within a brick inglenook fireplace, creating a warm and inviting focal point full of character. There is also a second reception room positioned alongside a downstairs shower room, offering excellent flexibility and making it ideal for use as a fifth bedroom, guest suite, additional sitting room, playroom, or private space for visiting family.

The kitchen/breakfast room is modern and practical, providing plenty of room for informal dining and day-to-day living, while a separate generously proportioned dining room with a bay window offers an excellent setting for entertaining and larger family gatherings. The ground floor also includes a utility room and a study, creating valuable additional space for home working, hobbies, or further storage.

To the rear, a conservatory overlooks the splendid gardens, with patio doors opening directly onto the outdoor seating area, creating an ideal space for relaxing and enjoying the changing seasons and the property's exceptional rural outlook.

The remaining bedrooms provide ample space for family members, guests, or home-working requirements.

A family bathroom serves the first floor, which also benefits from several built-in storage cupboards together with extensive loft storage, providing excellent practical space for seasonal items and long-term organisation 

OUTSIDE Outside, the gardens are a particularly special feature of the property and have been lovingly nurtured over many years to create a truly magical outdoor environment. To the front, a charming cottage-style garden provides a welcoming approach, rich with colour, character, and seasonal interest.

To the rear lies a generous and beautifully established garden backing onto open fields, offering a wonderful sense of privacy and a picturesque rural backdrop. An abundance of mature shrubs, plants, and trees creates a delightful setting that can be enjoyed throughout the year, with both sunny areas for relaxing and entertaining and plenty of shady retreats beneath established planting.
