Chester Road, Kelsall

Fantastic detached family home in a central village location, packed with attractive period features and offering particularly spacious accommodation, with added benefit of beautiful landscaped garden

Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman

The Old Post Office is, as the name suggests, a house with a unique history and one of considerable character. It's certainly one that gets my stamp of approval!

Located in Kelsall village, with excellent walks into countryside on the doorstep, the house enjoys a convenient location.

What I love most here is the size of the rooms and the versatile layout, which makes this a perfect family home. At under £600,000, it offers really notable value for money. The owners have also continually invested into the property, with a full external decoration having just been completed, lending the house a fresh and appealing first impression.

The bedrooms are notable for all being large doubles - this is much rarer than you would think and in addition, there is an en suite the principal bedroom and an intelligently designed family bathroom which incorporates a shower enclosure.

At ground floor level there are three very versatile reception rooms, a large family kitchen with space for table and chairs and access to the integral garage, which provides welcome storage space.

Last but definitely not least is the rear garden. What a wonderful area this is. Private, pretty and expertly landscaped, this is a hugely appealing external environment.

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

Location

Kelsall is an extremely popular semi-rural Cheshire village that combines a central location, excellent day-to-day amenities and a superb position amidst some of Cheshire's most picturesque countryside.

Within the village there is a large Co-operative convenience store, a renowned village butcher, pharmacist, ladies hairdresser and hugely popular coffee shop. More over there is an active community hall, Doctors surgery, Vets practice, well attended Parish Church and Methodist chapel.

Recreationally Kelsall features tennis courts, playing fields with specialist children's play area and a wonderful collection of walking routes in the surrounding countryside, especially the well-known sandstone trail. 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 Delamere Forest.

There are a number of pubs in the village, but worthy of particular attention is that in recent times Brunning & Price have completed their full refurbishment of the pub in the centre of the village, The Morris Dancer. This outstanding public house/restaurant has already been met with wide acclaim and is worthy of inspection along with The Boot Inn, famous to all locals for the amazing homemade pies! There is also the Farmers Arms and Royal Oak.

For those with educational needs, Kelsall has an outstanding Ofsted rated primary school on Flat Lane, which in turn feeds into the nearby outstanding Ofsted rated Tarporley High School. There are other well regarded schools in the villages surrounding including Kings & Queens of Chester, Abbeygate and The Grange. There is also an impressive array of events in the state of the art Kelsall Wellbeing Hub, which adjoins the newly constructed (2023) medical centre.

Anyone needing to commute will find great transport links to the M56, M6 and M53. The A49, A51 and A55 all link to key areas of commerce and interest, including Liverpool, Manchester, Warrington, Wrexham, and nearby Chester. Rail services from nearby village stations including Delamere and Hartford allow further access to the North West. Two international airports can be located within 45 minutes drive - Liverpool John Lennon International Airport and Manchester International Airport.

Leaving Tarporley along the High Street in the direction of Chester, as you come to the edge of the village having passed Forest Road on your right, take the next right turn onto Utkinton Road (before you reach the A49 roundabout). Follow this road for a while, continuing straight over a cross roads when Utkinton Road becomes John Street. Proceed along John Street passing Rose Farm Shop on your right and continuing through Utkinton village. Follow this road until you reach a T junction with Willington Hall Hotel opposite you. Turn right at this junction onto Willington Lane and follow the lane for a couple of miles passing the sign to the The Boot Inn on your right hand side. This lane will lead you to a T Junction with Church Street. Turn right and proceed gently up the hill. At the T junction take a right turn property and join Chester Road. The property will be found immediately on the right hand side, clearly identified by a Gascoigne Halman `For Sale' Board.
