The Green, Poulton, Chester

A stunning five bedroom barn conversion with a walled garden, double garage and self contained annexe, set within open countryside on the edge of Chester. Chapel House Barns is an exclusive development of just eight individually designed homes, tucked at the end of a quiet no through road and bordered by open countryside with far reaching views. It's the kind of setting many people spend years looking for: peaceful, private, and close enough to Chester to stay connected to family and friends. At the heart of the home is a dining hall built for gathering, whether that's Sunday lunch with the family or entertaining on a larger scale. There's a large living room warmed by a cast iron log burner, along with a separate sitting room for quieter moments. The dining kitchen has been beautifully fitted by Brownlow Furniture, with a bespoke range of units and an island unit, opening onto the family room, and there's a useful utility room, boot room and cloakroom besides .Upstairs, a galleried landing with an oak spindled balustrade leads to the principal bedroom, which enjoys a triple aspect, an en-suite wet shower room, and a section of exposed original brickwork left on show as a nod to the building's history. Two further bedrooms have vaulted beamed ceilings and their own en-suite shower rooms, with two more bedrooms and a family bathroom completing the first floor. Practical comforts run throughout, with underfloor heating to both floors on a fully programmable system, and bathrooms fitted with quality Duravit sanitaryware, Merlyn shower enclosures and Hansgrohe taps and valves. In addition to the main house there is a self-contained annexe well equipped for home working. Outside, the home sits within an attractive courtyard setting close to open countryside, with neat lawns to the front and side. To the rear, a beautiful walled garden is well stocked with specimen shrubs and trees, with Indian stone flagged patios to enjoy them from.

There's driveway parking for three cars and a double garage.

A home built for family life and settled countryside living, close to everything Chester has to offer.
