Description
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a very unusual and unique home in the heart of Tarporley Village, accessed from Forest Road.
This detached house is of relatively modern construction but has been styled in a cottage design with reclaimed bricks and attractive architectural features. This property stands out not just for its charming visual appeal but also for its surprisingly generous size. Offering three levels of versatile living space, this home provides 1,456 square feet and also has electric underfloor heating.
The moment you step inside, you'll feel the balanced flow of the ground floor. A well appointed kitchen serves as the heart of the home, while two separate and inviting reception rooms offer ideal spaces for relaxation and entertaining. The main living room provides a cozy retreat, while the dining room, with its elegant bay window, is perfect for gatherings with friend and family.
The thoughtful design continues as you ascend the stairs from the entrance hall to the first floor. Here you will find three well-proportioned double bedrooms, all serviced by a modern family bathroom.
One of the most interesting features of this property is the lower ground floor, or basement level as described on the floorplan. This flexible space can be adapted to suit a variety of needs. It's perfectly set up as two additional bedrooms, a bathroom and living / games room. These adaptable rooms could also suit use as a home office, a dedicated gym, or a creative studio, providing a quiet and separate area for work or hobbies.
Step outside to the rear and discover a small yet beautifully landscaped garden. The Indian stone patio is ideal for al fresco dining and there is also a small area of astro turf. A standout benefit, given its central village location, is the off-road parking space on a block-paved driveway at the front of the property.
This exceptional home is available with no chain and has been priced to attract immediate attention.
Should be considering purchasing the home for investment purposes the current owner uses the home as a holiday let and is generating a healthy income of £5,000 - £6,000 per month.
The net annual income for previous years has been as follows:-
2021 - £63,000
2022 - £66,000
2023 - £77,000
2024 - £70,000

Location
Tarporley is one of Cheshire's most highly regarded villages that boasts a diverse selection of amenities including a community centre, tennis courts, convenience stores, fashion boutiques, cafes, restaurants, public houses, doctors' surgery, dentists, three Churches and a very extensive bus route. There is also a golf course and private gymnasium / swimming pool on the edge of the village and state of the art gym and fitness centre with car park along the main High Street, known as Instinct 78¿.
In terms of education, there is a very popular Primary School in the centre of the village that has in recent times been extended and heavily invested into. This in turn feeds into Tarporley High School, which at its last OFSTED report was awarded Outstanding¿ in all areas. For those seeking Schools in the independent sector, The Grange in Hartford is a little under 20 minutes away and there is also Kings, Queens, and Abbeygate in Chester.
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. Wonderful walks are provided via the Whitegate Way and Sandstone Trail. Without leaving the village, there is walking distance access to beautiful countryside.
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.
With regards to railway services, there are stations at nearby Hartford, Cuddington, Delamere, Frodsham, and Chester. All operate on either the Chester to Manchester or Liverpool to London lines.
