Description

Cornerstone forms part of an award winning barn conversion scheme and occupies a rural position on a quiet country lane being equidistant of Chester and Wrexham. It was completed by Abbey Archway Developments in 2003 and the scheme involved the conversion of a traditional brick barn into a pair of houses. Cornerstone is the easterly unit and is approached via a splayed entrance opening onto a gravelled drive with open fronted entrance porch beneath the east gable end. It is a substantial and well-built property constructed of brick with wooden double glazed windows beneath a slate roof and gas central heating.

The front door opens into a spacious entrance hall with marble flooring incorporating a detailed inlay. Off the hall are three well-proportioned reception rooms including a family room, dining room and lounge, the latter containing an inglenook fireplace with wood burning stove. The 28 ft kitchen which incorporates a breakfast area has fitted wall & base units under granite worksurfaces with integrated appliances including an aga, microwave and dishwasher. On the opposite side of the entrance hall is a large utility room with fitted wall & base units beneath work surfaces which is plumbed for a washing machine & tumble dryer.

At first floor level there are four bedrooms including a master suite. The master suite is a double room with dual aspect and has the benefit of an en-suite shower room with under floor heating and separate dressing room with fitted wardrobes & storage. Off the landing are two further double bedrooms and a large single bedroom which are all served by a family bathroom with panelled bath and shower, hand basin, low flush w.c. heated towel rail and limestone floor with underfloor heating. At second floor level there are two further double bedrooms which could be used as an home office or playroom and between them is a large storage room which would readily convert to a bathroom to serve the bedrooms on the upper floor.

Within the grounds is a brick & slate double garage which has planning consent to extend to create 750 sq ft of ancillary living accommodation/work space being ideal for dependent relatives or somebody wishing to work from home and in addition to which there is an historical consent to build a tennis court in the garden.
