Description

Superfast fibre into Dove Cottage Our seller enjoys running a business from home with fibre optic cable running into the house, not just to the cabinet - offering download speeds to 125mbps and upload speeds to 25mbps.

Dove Cottage is a property that definitely stands out from the crowd. A barn conversion that sits amongst a small number of others in an impressive development that is just a short drive to the excellent amenities in the nearby village of Holt. And if that weren't enough then drive or walk across the picturesque river crossing and you are into Farndon - a beautiful village with its own excellent amenities. The location could be described as ideal. This is a property that should attract a lot of interest. Chester City is just 20 minutes drive and Wrexham is around 10.

There is a lot to like here starting with the lower level brick pillared name plates labelled "Plas Devon Court." The shingled drive runs about 40 yards, past a garage and into the U shaped community. There are two dedicated parking spaces labelled "Dove Cottage"

Living in this small development brings with it a unique lifestyle. There is space to the front for a table and seating to enjoy the surroundings and the U shaped community should offer a pleasant outdoor environment to be even on a windier day.

The entrance hall is accessed by a stable style solid Oak door where you will find storage and the stairs. To the left and through an Oak door is the living room that features exposed white painted beams. There is wall lighting, a remote controlled living flame effect electric fire and an impressive tiled floor. This lovely room benefits further from an opening into the garden and dining room where our seller recently added a multi fuel burning stove. This garden room could rival any and has space for a dining table for 6 and further seating. Offering spectacular open views of the Countryside, this is a special place that you are really going to enjoy and features exposed white painted beams and an air conditioning unit for both hot and cool air. An Oak door opens into the kitchen breakfast room which has been fitted with a cottage style cream coloured kitchen with curved chrome handles and breakfast bar. This kitchen breakfast room also enjoys a fantastic open outlook and features recessed lighting and a wood effect floor to match that of the garden and dining room. There is a floor standing washing machine concealed within one of the units. The ground floor at Dove Cottage is a practical one.

Moving upstairs could be described as being one with a difference. At Dove Cottage you walk into the main bedroom that features a vaulted ceiling with stunning A Frame and exposed timbers. It is an impressive bedroom space which benefits further from an inward looking window and to the other side, the Countryside - a fantastic choice to wake to every day. A small passageway takes you past the bathroom and into bedroom two which is also a good sized double and enjoys an inward facing outlook. This second bedroom also features a high level pitched ceiling with exposed timbers and a three way light. Finally for the upstairs is the three piece bathroom that has been fitted with a deep panelled bath with chrome mixer tap and hand shower attachment mid way, a glass screen, wash basin and WC in an older style that goes well in a property like Dove cottage.

The outdoor space has been kept simple for a busy lifestyle. The patio has been laid to Indian Stone and is certainly the place to be on a warmer day and for the sunsets. This lovely outdoor space turns to shingle that runs past the garden room to the good sized timber shed and then to the left where there is further open storage.

This really is an interesting combination of property, outlooks and location. It is one that rarely comes to market and one we think you really have to see.
