Rode Street, Tarporley

Offered with no chain, superb five bedroom, four bathroom, five reception room detached farmhouse, rich in character and quality, set in beautiful landscaped gardens with 1000 square feet outbuilding

Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman

The principal road from Tarporley to Chester has long been renowned for showcasing some of the finest houses in the locality, in terms of stature, build quality and individuality. This desirability has been reflected in recent times post covid, with three houses in this geographical zone having recently changed hands at £1,050,000, £1,160,000 and £1,250,000.

It is therefore with great pleasure that I have been asked to offer to the market this superb individual farmhouse that has been priced competitively and is offered for sale with no ongoing chain.

This is a home that I really love and it offers many features that you would not commonly associate with a house of this age and character. By way of example there are three en suites and a separate house bathroom that perfectly serve the five double bedrooms. There is also a very tasteful contemporary twist, with the garden room being a more recent addition. This not only overlooks the superb landscaped grounds, but also blends perfectly with the heart of the home.

There is also a clever balancing act that this farmhouse pulls off magnificently, which is to combine an undoubted sense of space (3003 square feet) with a feeling of cosyness and warmth. Such a combination is often sought and rarely found! Each room has its own character and style and with five bedrooms, five reception rooms plus a large bespoke breakfast kitchen, there is ample scope to adapt the house to suit individual needs.

Practicality is also offered with a useful utility / boot room and what is surely the biggest lack of more modern homes, that being a walk in pantry.
The quality and character of the house is readily apparent, with a superb mixture of original sandstone, stripped and varnished wooden floors, exposed ceiling beams and beautiful brick work in evidence throughout. It is a home with great heart and soul and this can be recognised fully by coming to view it.

Another essential criteria for most buyers in the £800,000 to £1,500,000 category is a high quality outbuilding. The subject property delivers exactly that with a brick and slate outbuilding incorporating three garages, large gymnasium and a one bedroom annexe, ideal for guests, working from home or family members staying for longer holidays.

Externally the house has ample off road parking, delightful private landscaped gardens and is just a two minute drive to the heart of Tarporley village. Its position on the Tarporley to Chester Road delivers the advantage of a non estate location. This is an ideal home for those who value privacy when in their house and garden.

A real gem is this, and with no chain, my clients can work to the timescales of a motivated buyer.

Location

Tarporley is 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' surgery, dentists, three Churches and a very extensive bus route. There is also a golf course and private gymnasium / swimming pool on the edge of the village and state of the art gym and fitness centre with car park along the main High Street, known as `Instinct 78'.

In terms of education, there is a very popular Primary School in the centre of the village that has in recent times been extended and heavily invested into. This in turn feeds into Tarporley High School, which at its last OFSTED report was awarded `Outstanding' in all areas. For those seeking Schools in the independent sector, The Grange in Hartford is a little under 20 minutes away and there is also Kings, Queens, and Abbeygate in Chester.

The area as a whole has access to glorious countryside and places of significant interest that include ancient castles, boating facilities on nearby canals and the outstanding Sandstone Ridges of Cheshire. Wonderful walks are provided via the Whitegate Way and Sandstone Trail. Without leaving the village, there is walking distance access to beautiful countryside.

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, Delamere, Frodsham, and Chester. All operate on either the Chester to Manchester or Liverpool to London lines. Fast connections can be enjoyed at Crewe railway station, with the service to London Euston taking just over 90 minutes.

Two international airports are located within 45 minutes drive to Liverpool John Lennon International Airport and Manchester International Airport.
