Utkinton, Tarporley

Excellent size individual building plot in a tranquil location with detailed planning permission for a unique detached residence with four bedrooms, two bathrooms and incredible open plan living space

Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman

This is an excellent and rare buying opportunity for private individuals, speculators, investors or developers to acquire a building plot with planning permission to build a two storey architect designed individual detached house. Permission was granted by CWAC Planning on 27th July 2023 under planning reference 22/01707/FUL.

The plans for the house were created by renowned local practice James Bell Architecture. The depth, detail and appreciation of the local surroundings are clear for all to see in the design which has an emphasis on natural light and intelligent design.

The plans passed and submitted have given approval for a four bedroom, two bathroom house with outstandingly proportioned open plan kitchen, family and dining area and many other intelligent design features which combine practicality with style. Once complete, the new dwelling will stand at the end of a no through road and next door to a beautiful house of history and appeal.

The desirability and rarity of the opportunity can not be overstated and I anticipate really good interest in this plot. It is rural in character and feel yet within walking distance of a thriving rural enterprise that incorporates a village shop, butchers, post office, fitness centre and café.

As highlighted with the photographs, the size of the plot is generous and there are good views of countryside beyond to the rear.

For a personal description of the property or to arrange a viewing of the site, please contact myself or a member of the team at the Tarporley office.

Location

Utkinton is a hugely popular village that lies just two miles from the centre of Tarporley. There is a well-supported and increasingly popular Church of England primary school within the village. Utkinton enjoys beautiful views from many vantage points and is some of the finest walking territory in the county of Cheshire, linking to Willington aka `Little Switzerland¿ and the Kelsall hills. Within the village is Rose Farm Shop which comprises a post office, delicatessen, butchers, off-licence, cafe, garden centre, fitness centre and has a strong emphasis on customer service.

Utkinton is only a short drive away from the Georgian High Street of Tarporley - one of Cheshire's most highly regarded villages that boasts a diverse selection of amenities including a community centre, tennis courts, convenience stores, fashion boutiques, cafes, restaurants, public houses, Doctors / Dentist surgery and three well attended Churches.

The village is also renowned for its excellent educational facilities with Tarporley High School consistently maintaining a strong reputation. Those seeking a wider choice of schools will find ample provision by virtue of the Grange School in Hartford and in Chester with the impressive choice of King's, Queen's and Abbey Gate.

The area as a whole has access to glorious countryside and places of significant interest that include ancient castles, boating facilities on nearby canal and the outstanding Delamere Forest. Wonderful walks are provided via the Whitegate Way and Sandstone Trail. There are many excellent golf clubs within short travelling distance.

Whilst the area is renowned for its outstanding natural beauty, the house also offers an excellent base for the business traveller. In terms of road links, there are extensive connections to the M56, M6 and M53. The A49, A51 and A55 all link to key areas of commerce and interest.

With regards to railway services, there are stations at nearby Hartford, Cuddington, Frodsham, and Chester. All operate on either the Chester to Manchester or Liverpool to London lines. Fantastic connections can be enjoyed at Crewe railway station, with the service to London taking just over 90 minutes.

Two international airports can be located within 45 minutes drive: Liverpool John Lennon International Airport and Manchester International Airport.

From the centre of Tarporley, proceed out of the village in the direction of Chester and take the right onto Utkinton Road, which is the next road after Forest Road.

Take the next right after the Rose Farm Shop into Northgate. Proceed straight on and the lane will narrow.
