" Enjoying magnificent far reaching views, set in an outstanding landscaped plot of 0.62 acre and ideally located on the edge of Kelsall village, a superb five bedroom, three bathroom detached house

Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman

This is a special new instruction, in a lovely part of Kelsall. If you have ever wanted to buy a property that benefits from spectacular far reaching views, there is no stronger candidate than this home. The wonderful aspects are enjoyed by many key rooms in the house and incorporate Chester, North Wales and more rural parts of Cheshire. On November 5th and New Year‘s Eve, just open the curtains and the most spectacular firework show awaits!

The position offers a lovely balance, with a choice of rural and village options being on offer every day. By way of example, Delamere Forest is accessible on foot within just five minutes stroll, so this is ideal if you enjoy walking the dog or clearing your head at the end of the day with some rural tranquillity. And for those who enjoy the amenities of village life, a fifteen minute walk will take you to the centre of Kelsall village, which has co op post office, coffee shop, pharmacist, refurbished parish Church and an excellent pub restaurant, The Morris Dancer, one of three pubs the village has to offer.

Let me turn to the property itself, a fabulous family home that combines space, versatility quality and practicality with a warm and inviting atmosphere. The present owners have occupied the property for many years and have taken great joy in continually investing into the home, both inside and out so as to create a first class environment. The end result is a superb family house, embedded with quality that can be moved into and enjoyed straight away. There is also some scope for the next owner to make their own impact on the property, over the long term.

At ground floor level there is an elegant hallway, two large reception rooms and a large open plan breakfast kitchen. Features of note include the Clearview wood burning stove in the living room, the oak wood flooring throughout the ground level and the outstanding aspects from every window to the front the wonderful views opposite and to the rear and side the amazing gardens and views over neighbouring fields. The layout is ideally optimised for family life and as well as the spacious living spaces on offer, there is also the practicality of a good size utility room and access to the integral double garage and gym space workshop area.

The first floor offers five bedrooms in total, four of which are of double proportion and all of which enjoy super aspects. The smaller single would be an ideal nursery, dressing room, office or single room. It also has the potential to be incorporated into the adjoining bathroom should the new owner look to create a larger space. Two of the bedrooms have en suites whilst there is also a well appointed family bathroom. As one might expect of rooms at first floor height and given the location, the views are spectacular. With working from home increasingly on the rise, these rooms are very well suited to such a need, with study areas straightforwardly incorporated.

And now let me turn to the garden. Wow!

Anyone who has recently had quotes for landscape gardening will know how very expensive it is to buy the right materials, combined with the added labour cost to implement a plan. Well at Grove House, you have no need to endure these difficulties as all the work is done and you can just get on with enjoying it straight away. And there is an awful lot to enjoy here!

The plot extends to circa 0.62 acre and when it comes to a balanced design that incorporates so many different areas, this is almost impossible to better. The privacy and maturity is complete, with no house overlooking and the overall arrangement is just perfect for family life. To the front there is ample driveway parking. The stand out feature is the extensive use of professionally laid Indian Stone which starts at the front of the house, runs right along the side in a widened format and then through to a very large expanse at the back which provides the perfect setting for al fresco dining, outdoor entertaining and for children, riding bikes! There are a multitude of other treats that include a fire pit, bespoke sandstone walls, box hedging, beautifully stocked beds and borders, which provide an abundance of colour, large productive vegetable garden with raised beds and large greenhouse, delightful specimen trees, a summerhouse and a magnificent large expanse of well tended lawn, a paradise for young children or an evening game of croquet. It is an exceptional environment.

Those who enjoy going to gigs and concerts will know that every good performer always has one last song up their sleeve for an encore or high quality finish. And so here is my marketing literature equivalent, the final lovely surprise! As the photos demonstrate there is a detached single storey outbuilding that extends to just under 300 square feet. This is ideal as either a luxury home office, children‘s break out space, leisure suite or art studio. The choice is yours!

Priced at a deliberately fair and competitive level, this is a wonderful lifestyle opportunity.
