Kensington Drive, Willaston, CW5

Positioned on a quiet and highly regarded development in the heart of Willaston, this striking five-bedroom detached home offers the perfect mix of space, style and practicality. With beautifully unspoilt views, a private garden, and generous room sizes throughout, it’s the kind of property that can comfortably grow with you — whether you’re a growing family or simply looking for a place to settle without compromise.

The moment you step through the front door, the sense of space is immediate. The wide, welcoming hallway sets the tone for the rest of the house, flowing through to a bright and beautifully balanced lounge. This room has been designed for both comfort and everyday living, with a large front-facing window filling the space with natural light, while French doors open directly onto the garden, creating a seamless connection between indoors and out.

A downstairs WC and a dedicated study add thoughtful flexibility to the ground floor — the study especially is a real asset, providing a peaceful space for working from home, managing household admin, or giving children a place to focus away from the main living areas.

The real heart of the home, though, is the expansive open-plan kitchen, dining and family space. This impressive extension has been carefully designed to bring in light and create flow, with wide bi-fold doors that stretch across the back wall, opening up fully to the garden and allowing you to enjoy the views whatever the season. Velux skylights flood the space with daylight and make the room feel bright and welcoming from morning to evening.

The kitchen itself strikes the perfect balance between style and practicality. Rich dark oak wall and base units are paired with polished black quartz worktops, giving the room a sleek and modern finish. Underfloor heating runs beneath large-format porcelain floor tiles, adding both comfort and elegance. The central island offers extra worktop space and makes a natural gathering spot for family or guests. The kitchen also comes fully equipped with an integrated dishwasher, drinks fridge, a high-quality Range Master cooker and space for an American-style fridge freezer. Small but clever details — like USB plug sockets placed thoughtfully throughout the family space and bedrooms — reflect how well the house has been adapted for modern life.

A separate utility room offers even more practicality, with plumbing for a washing machine and space for a tumble dryer, keeping laundry neatly out of sight and freeing up the kitchen for socialising and cooking.

Upstairs, the space continues to impress. All five bedrooms are generously sized, offering flexibility for families at every stage. The master bedroom has a calm, elegant feel, with fitted wardrobes providing plenty of storage and a newly renovated en-suite that includes a double shower, a sleek vanity unit with integrated wash hand basin, and a WC. Bedroom two also enjoys the convenience of fitted wardrobes, while bedrooms three and four are both large enough for double beds and still leave plenty of room to spare. The fifth bedroom, a comfortable single, makes an ideal nursery, home office or guest room, depending on your needs. The family bathroom is finished in a modern, neutral style and features a bath, separate shower, wash hand basin and WC.

Outside, the garden is private, peaceful and beautifully maintained — the perfect space for relaxing on sunny afternoons or hosting friends and family. An attractive aluminium pergola adds a stylish focal point and offers the option of shade when needed, while the lawn and well-stocked borders bring colour and greenery to the space.

At the front of the property, the driveway offers parking for multiple vehicles and leads to a double garage, complete with lighting, power and extra storage. And for families, the appeal extends even further: directly opposite the house lies a lovely open green area known locally as ‘The Mound’ — an ideal spot for children to play, dog walking or simply enjoying a little extra outdoor space on your doorstep.

This is a house that feels welcoming the moment you walk in, offering both space to grow and all the little touches that make daily life more comfortable. A real gem in a quiet, family-friendly part of Willaston.
