Neston Road, CH64

Hampton House is a delightfully presented 5 bedroom home set in the beating heart of the Wirral countryside.

The property in brief

Originally 1930's, the house has been completely refigured and renovated whilst maintaining the charm and detail of the period. Engineered wooden 'ebony' flooring, double glazed high specification wood grain upvc windows/doors and painted throughout with Mylands 'Chalk Farm' -  the attention to detail is superb.  The internal doors and skirting boards are new but designed in homage to the original 1930's house.

A stunning veranda has been added to the front elevation, where you can imagine yourself on a summer's evening sipping sundowners on a swing chair.

At every turn, the quality of the fixtures and fittings is excellent.   A newly fitted wooden kitchen, painted in Farrow and Ball 'Bone', has quartz worktops, brass fittings including a boiling tap, full range style hob and oven, integrated appliances and handmade lights above the seating island.   There is a spacious dining area with gas fired wood burner and double doors to the veranda. The emphasis on the exterior as an extension of the living space is evident in the fact that all key rooms open directly onto the garden spaces.  A charming, raised decking area provides a perfect spot for relaxing and entertaining.  The principal sitting room faces the front and, with two sets of double doors, really makes the most of the stunning views across to the Dee Estuary and Welsh Hills beyond.

A second sitting room across the hall provides versatile family living and opens directly onto the garden.  Adjacent is the laundry room, complete with chute, and a stylish loo, papered in a bold Ralph Lauren stripe.

The principal suite on the first floor is spacious, with a separate dressing room and ensuite shower room fitted with Spanish marble tiles and smart brass fittings. A guest suite at the other end of the landing also boasts an ensuite.  There are three further good sized bedrooms and a simply stunning family bathroom with Italian marble tiling, brass fittings, slatwood tiled shower and a superb stone bathtub.

The outside in brief

Every attention has been given to creating a charming and idyllic outside space at Hampton House. Planting to the front and rear includes hydrangeas, eucalyptus and roses.  There are stunning Spanish marble steps laid from the front lawns up to the solid oak veranda, lit by stylish lantern and half carriage lamps and even the original 1930's garage door has been replicated in oak.  There is ample parking on the driveway and the mature trees and hedges provide privacy along the boundaries. To the rear the private garden, accessed via doors from the kitchen and second sitting room, is perfect for entertaining.

The lifestyle in brief

Burton is a beautiful, picturesque village that offers everything that would be expected from a rural way of life.

Woodland walks with views over the open countryside, Ness Gardens and the RSPB marshlands are on the doorstep.

Victorian traditions can be enjoyed which include singing carols around the Christmas tree and summer fetes which add to the village ambiance.

There is a lovely local primary school with a good ofsted report and the local playing field with a playground for younger children to enjoy. The excellent grammar, private and state schools both on the Wirral and in Chester are easily reached.

The village has lots to offer and is situated only minutes from the Chester High Road making it highly accessible to the motorway network and Chester, Heswall and Liverpool.
