A substantial family home in an idyllic rural setting, Lone Acres enjoys breathtaking views over open countryside to the Welsh hills, while remaining within close proximity to the amenities of Heswall, Neston, and the northwest motorway network. This unique and versatile property is set within an acre of secluded gardens, bordered by mature planting, a varied orchard, and an arboretum of specimen trees.

The entrance to the property is framed by mature oak trees, leading to a generous gravel driveway with parking for multiple vehicles. Behind the original oak front door, a tiled hallway opens to a grand staircase, a cloakroom, and a light-filled, south-facing kitchen/dining area. Featuring dual-aspect windows, extensive storage, and ample space for both catering and entertaining, this space is the heart of the home. Off the kitchen lies a utility room and a large, practical pantry/storeroom.

The kitchen also leads to a charming, intimate snug - or potential downstairs bedroom -echoing the style of the property's earliest construction phase. A newly created shower room is conveniently attached.

The spacious sitting room, with panoramic views of the garden on all four sides, is ideal for gatherings. It retains the charm of original lattice windows while offering a large picture window that frames views of the lawn and flower beds. A custom-built fireplace with an efficient woodburner serves as a welcoming focal point, and the parquet flooring adds both style and durability.

Upstairs, the airy master bedroom enjoys stunning views across the Dee Estuary. A walk-in wardrobe, additional built-in storage, and a generous en-suite shower room complete this attractive suite. There are three further spacious double bedrooms - one with an en-suite - a stylish family bathroom, and a study/fifth bedroom offering flexible accommodation.

Outside, an integral garage leads to a potting shed, storage unit, and a large, versatile, internet-connected workshop/workroom. An Indian sandstone path meanders down the garden to a uniquely designed studio/summerhouse with a generous south-facing rear patio that overlooks the field and arboretum. An efficient solar array, linked to battery storage, is discreetly concealed beyond the hornbeam hedge.
