Old Hall Close, Higher Walton, Warrington

'Deceptively spacious' is one of those phrases synonymous with estate agency, however its use to describe ‘Lea Rise’ is incredibly apt. Our clients have owned the property since construction by Ashall Builders, a local family firm of builders renowned for their quality construction, and, in recent years the property has been transformed with a substantial extension and upgrading to create a home that offers an extent of accommodation that is not immediately apparent on first impression. Putting its sheer size to one side, the care and attention to detail that our clients have employed is equally as impressive. With well-presented rooms of substantial proportions and tremendous flexibility to suit a variety of lifestyles and requirements, the property would equally suit those searching for a large family home, those seeking a property that would accommodate a dependent relative or for those working from home. Unlike many properties that have been extended to such a degree, often they do so at the expense of their gardens, but that cannot be said for ‘Lea Rise' with outstanding grounds with predominantly westerly aspects extending to approximately 0.32 acre (0.30 ha).  

On entering the property, viewers will be immediately struck by its sheer size with a large open plan lounge, dining area and impressively fitted kitchen. With an abundance of natural light pouring in from the skylights and bi-fold doors leading out to the beautifully landscaped garden, this is perfect space for both entertaining and relaxing. The kitchen has quartz worksurfaces, quality integrated appliances and provides ample space to cook and socialise in style.  A hall provides excellent facility with its vaulted ceiling and stunning chandeliers is perfect for use as a study/seating area or hobbies space and leads through an inner hall off which are located three double bedrooms. The principal bedroom has a seating area and a superb en-suite shower room and retractable television, there are two further bedrooms – each having fitted wardrobes and a luxurious family bathroom with a grand fitted bath, separate shower and even built-in TV to make your daily routine feel like an indulgent experience! For those working from home, there is a dedicated work from home space with its own entrance. However, with adaptations already in place to create an integral doorway, it can be easily transformed into a fourth bedroom – the choice is yours.  

Technically, the house is equally impressive with sealed unit double glazing, electrically operated roof lights with rain sensors with a majority having built in blinds, zoned lighting areas, electric curtains, ducted hot air heating system which also provides air conditioning operated via a Hive system, CCTV and ‘Zip’ water tap in the kitchen providing chilled or instant boiling water.

Outside, there is generous driveway parking and a double garage providing further facility and well positioned Hot Tub.  Old Hall Close is approached directly off Walton Lea Road and is within approximately 10 minutes walking distance of Stockton Heath village, where there are a wide range of amenities including an ever-varied range of shops and boutiques, eating houses as well everyday amenities serving most day to day requirements. For those favouring a more rural setting, there is open countryside close by with Walton Hall Gardens a ten minute walk away. This breath-taking property offers a unique opportunity to own a truly exceptional home in one of the village’s most desirable location. Ready to move in, it’s a perfect blend of modern living and classic elegance.
