Description

"Set in a large plot of 0.14 acre with south facing garden and two driveways, a terrific five bedroom, three bathroom detached house with large open plan living space and offered for sale with no chain.
Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman

This excellent family home has been in the same ownership for 28 years and is a very welcome addition to the market. Pleasingly, it is offered for sale with no ongoing chain and is priced competitively. It has a terrific plot of 0.14 acre with the main area of garden being southerly in aspect and in addition the main area driveway parking there is also a gated driveway to the side, ideal for the storage of a larger vehicle or motorhome.

This era of housing has always been known for light bright rooms and good dimensions but this house has some good surprises on top of what might be expected, with considerable investment in recent years. As the floorplan indicates, there is just under 2000 square feet of living space, including the garage. My favourite part of the house is the opened up living and dining rooms which now flow into each other and have two sets of double width doors leading directly to different parts of the garden.

There is also great flexibility with an additional reception room also being a potential fifth bedroom, with a very useful shower room adjacent to it. The kitchen and utility room are both well equipped and the latter has a door leading to the integral garage. At first floor level there are three double bedrooms, a well sized 4th, a family bathroom and en suite to the main bedroom.

Tarvin has always been popular in my twenty two years of selling houses in the area and this popularity seems to have hit new heights in recent times. This is not a surprise as the village offers a very strong sense of community, excellent walking distance amenities and a great position just five miles from Tarporley and seven miles from Chester.

For a personal description of the property or to arrange a viewing, please contact myself or the Gascoigne Halman Tarporley office.
