Description

Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman

In the last eight years, this home has been radically transformed and substantially rebuilt. The end result is a first class eco friendly detached house of 2519 square feet, which boasts strong aesthetic appeal, an ideal modern day family layout, a superb plot of circa 1.33 acre and a highly versatile outbuilding of a little under 1000 square feet.

For such a rural house, the eco credentials are notable and impressive, with the house benefitting from a ground source heat pump, Residence 9 double glazed windows, fully insulated floors and walls, a very well insulated roof, ground floor underfloor heating and a modern private drainage system, compliant with the 2020 binding rules. The Renewable Heat Incentive will provide the future owner with circa three years of future income, predicted to be circa £6000 per annum.

Internally the house has been transformed and has been designed to optimise family living. The balance of the accommodation is excellent, with the large open plan kitchen family dining room being the focal point and heart of day to day living. There are two additional reception rooms, each with their own distinct style, character and purpose and both of which can be adapted to suit individual requirements. The living rooms has a HETAS certified 8kw output log burning stove. There is also a small study.

At first floor level there is a elegant principal suite with dressing room and en suite, thee further double bedrooms, one of which has an en suite and the other which is served by a high quality and visually appealing family bathroom.

It should also be noted that this a really tech enabled house with Cat6 wiring throughout, multiple integrated wifi points, some automated lights, and there high amp pre wiring in place for electric gates and a car charging point if either or both are required by a future owner.

Externally the highlight is the outbuilding which is 961 square feet and has a double garage, workshop, art studio, kitchenette and cloakroom. This building is so flexible and subject to planning consent could be converted to become an annexe for ancillary living.

The gardens wrap around the house and have maturity and colour and also provide space for young children playing or family eating together and entertaining outside. The paddock is ideal for those with a horse, pony, donkey or livestock and with two driveways, there is enough parking for even the largest family.

If you seek a fully developed detached country residence in a tranquil yet connected location, there are few if any better buying opportunities out there.

As detailed on floorplan

Location

 

Spurstow is a very attractive semi rural village only fifteen minutes drive from Tarporley village, twenty minutes from the centre of Nantwich and just over five minute from Bunbury and its highly regarded Primary School. Bunbury is a delightful village with the convenience of a refurbished Co-op convenience store, three public houses and a beautiful historic Church which dates back over 1,000 years. There is also a cricket club and modern medical centre. Of particular note is Bunbury Primary School that enjoys an excellent reputation for academic excellence and is aided by the Worshipful Company of Haberdashers. Bunbury Primary School also feeds into Tarporley High School and also many children also go on to Bishop Heber in Malpas. There are a range of independent schools in Chester.

The nearby village of Tarporley provides a wider range of amenities and the whole area is well placed for the business traveller with many commercial centres including Manchester, Liverpool, Crewe, Warrington and Nantwich, all being found within comfortable commuting distance.

Railway Stations can be found at Crewe, Chester and Nantwich, with London readily accessible from Crewe. Manchester and Liverpool Airports are found within a maximum of an hours drive. For those with an interest in historical cities, Chester City centre can be reached in within approximately 30 minutes. For those with leisure pursuits there are many golf clubs in the area whilst the sandstone trail is ideal for those with a love of walking and the outdoors.

Directions

From our office in the centre of Tarporley take a left turn out of the village in the direction of Nantwich and proceed until reaching a junction with the A49. At this point turn left onto the A49 and upon reaching the crossroads with the Rosai Indian Restuarant on your right, take a right turn. Proceed through the village of Beeston and having passed The former Wild Boar Hotel on the left hand side (now a residential development site known as Beeston Park) continue straight on. Before reaching Panama Hatties on the right hand side take a left hand turn onto Long Lane. Proceed along Long Lane for approximately a quarter of a mile, follow the road round to the right having passed the Yew Tree Pub on the left hand side, continue along following the road around until eventually reaching a very sharp left hand bend which should be taken with appropriate caution. Proceed forward for a very short distance and take the right turn onto Cappers Lane. Proceed down Cappers Lane passing Broom Butts, proceed for a short distance taking a right turn into Dobb Lane. Proceed down Dobb Lane which turns into Bathwood Lane and the subject property will be found on the left hand side clearly marked by a Gascoigne Halman for sale board.
