Description

May we entice you with the beauty of what lies nestled behind private electric gates within beautifully established grounds extending to approximately 1.03 acres. This impeccably presented five bedroom detached family home offers an exceptional blend of character charm and contemporary luxury. Occupying a picturesque position in the idyllic hamlet of Hatherton, just a short drive from Nantwich and Audlem, Highfields enjoys breathtaking rural views, outstanding privacy and over 3,100 sq. ft. of beautifully appointed accommodation and outbuildings.

Having undertaken several alterations and extensions over the years, particularly during the early 1980s with cavity wall insulation and loft insulation, the property has been extensively remodelled and modernised by the current owners to create a stunning family home that effortlessly combines character features with stylish modern finishes.

The welcoming entrance hall immediately sets the tone, featuring an impressive oak and glass staircase leading to the first floor. The thoughtfully designed ground floor offers a wonderful sense of space and flow, perfectly suited to modern family living and entertaining. There are three generous reception rooms, including a dual-aspect lounge and sitting room, both centred around striking fireplaces with log-burning stoves, while the elegant dining room benefits from bi-fold doors opening out to the gardens, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living.

The heart of the home is undoubtedly the magnificent kitchen/breakfast room, beautifully fitted with a comprehensive range of contemporary cabinetry, quality worktops, integrated appliances and a central island with breakfast bar. A cosy seating area with a further log burner and expansive sliding patio doors creates an inviting family space flooded with natural light. Completing the ground floor is a practical utility room with stable door to the garden, a guest cloakroom and a dedicated study, providing the ideal work-from-home environment.

To the first floor, a spacious galleried landing leads to five well-proportioned double bedrooms. The impressive master bedroom suite enjoys a walk-in wardrobe, luxurious en-suite shower room and access to a delightful sun terrace overlooking the gardens and surrounding countryside. Four further double bedrooms are served by a beautifully appointed family bathroom featuring a freestanding bath, generous walk-in shower, twin wash basins and WC.

Outside, the property continues to impress. The fully enclosed gardens provide expansive lawns, mature planted borders, a wildlife garden and extensive paved terraces designed for outdoor entertaining. A gravel driveway offers ample parking for numerous vehicles and includes an EV charging point.

The excellent range of outbuildings further enhances the property's versatility, comprising a detached double garage with a substantial store room above that offers excellent potential as a home office, studio or hobby room, a separate carport and an attractive gazebo-style garden building, ideal as a sheltered seating area or hot tub retreat.

Offering an enviable combination of space, privacy, character and modern convenience in one of Cheshire's most desirable rural settings, Highfields presents a rare opportunity to acquire a truly outstanding family home. Do not delay, call our Nantwich office today to arrange a viewing!
