Description

The Laurels is an attractive 1908 detached family home, beautifully positioned in the heart of Mollington village and surrounded by open countryside. Set within approximately an acre of gardens, the property offers generous, flexible accommodation and a wonderful sense of space, all just a short drive from Chester.

The home has been thoughtfully extended and improved over the years, creating a layout that works beautifully for family life. A gravel driveway provides ample parking and turning space, leading to a welcoming covered entrance porch.

Inside, the property opens into an initial impressive reception room with a working fireplace, creating a warm and characterful first impression. From here, the accommodation flows naturally through a series of well proportioned reception rooms, including a formal dining room, snug, study, conservatory and main living room. The study enjoys vaulted ceilings and direct access to the garden, making it an ideal home office or playroom.

The kitchen is a superb family space, measuring around 25ft wide and fitted with high gloss units, quartz worktops and integrated appliances. There is space for informal dining, French doors to the patio and a practical utility area. A ground floor shower room adds further flexibility, particularly for guests or multigenerational living.

To the first floor are four bedrooms, including two with en suite shower rooms. The remaining bedrooms are served by a modern family bathroom, with several rooms enjoying lovely views over the gardens and surrounding fields.

The gardens are a true highlight. Extending to around an acre, they include formal seating areas, sweeping lawns, mature planting, fruit trees, a summer house, games room, tennis court and a more natural wildlife area beyond. It is a garden designed to be enjoyed, with space for entertaining, children, sport and peaceful countryside living.

Combining period character, generous accommodation and outstanding gardens, The Laurels is a rare opportunity to secure a substantial family home in one of Chester’s most desirable village settings.
