4 bedroom detached house for sale

Orchard House is nestled in the orchard garden that used to serve Leighton Manor, and the original Victorian pathways and arbour are still present in the gardens. The property was constructed with the highest detail in build quality and has recently been extended and renovated to an exceptional standard to create a truly impressive family residence with spacious, light and well planned accommodation over three floors.
The recent renovation have been carried out with closest attention to detail and finished to exacting standards whilst retaining many original features, including the servant’s bell system and bell board, the original timber framed windows, which have had the double glazed units replaced, and the original staircase.
Orchard House is set in beautiful landscaped gardens extending to approximately 1/2 acre and is situated in one of the finest locations of the area. The property is close to the market town of Neston and the coastal village of Parkgate, and is ideally placed for commuting to the major commercial centres of the region as well as being in the catchment area for top performing state and private schools.
The towns of Neston & Parkgate have a good range of shops, restaurants and Inns, and there are a number of walks including The Wirral Way. More comprehensive facilities can be found in the major cities of Liverpool & Chester.
