Church Street, Tarvin

A magnificent, handsome and iconic grade two star listed house, subject to an extraordinary restoration, offering impeccable three storey accommodation combined with driveway and landscaped gardens.
Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman

I have been privileged in my career to market and sell some of the most interesting, high quality and unique homes in the locality. The great thing about property though is that there is always something different to see. This truly amazing home, Hamilton House, is a property that has broadened my horizons and could not fail to impress any interested party. Having been purchased when in a very sad state of disrepair, this is a glorious example of top to bottom property restoration at its absolute best.

Hamilton House is located in the heart of Tarvin village, a superb location just six miles from the city centre of Chester. On the doorstep are amenities and convenience yet to the rear there is a gated driveway, courtyard garden, small outbuilding and an amazing long garden. There are direct views of Tarvin Church, which through the years has been the feature building of many Cheshire publications that profile desirable village locations.

This would be a wonderful family house, with access to a range of both state and private schools all within comfortable travelling distance plus many school buses that pick up within the village centre. Internally the house manages to combine elegance, stature and a host of original features that blend with tasteful contemporary quality, modern refinements and high grade materials. The layout delivers five bedrooms, two en suites, family bathroom, two reception rooms and a fantastic open plan breakfast kitchen / dining room with utility area off.

The exceptionally rare asset that this amazing home enjoys is that it is a grade II star listed period building that no requires no improvement or building works whatsoever. I'm not sure I've ever been able to say that about any property I have marketed in the last twenty one years! Literally anything you can think of has been completed to the highest standards. Windows, doors, electrics, plumbing, brick work, roof, kitchen, bathrooms, decoration and anything else that can be thought of have been meticulously restored, sensitively upgraded and beautifully finished. The project has also been completed with a passion to comply with the Grade II star listing and the close involvement of the statutory conservation officers and planning department.

Externally to the rear is private gated driveway that is shared between Hamilton House and the adjoining property, The Flaggs, which is the adjoining superbly restored property, carried out by the same owner. The subject property also has a gorgeous courtyard garden that is accessed from both the kitchen and living room, a single garage, store and a very impressive paddock style lawned garden, that is very long and is so rarely found in a village centre position.

Is Hamilton House about to become your dream come true?
