General Remarks - Comment by Mark Johnson FRICS @ Baker Wynne and Wilson
This outstanding detached true bungalow offers scope for additional improvement in many ways and is tailor-made for downsizers seeking comfort, convenience, and a lock-up and-leave lifestyle.
Situated off one of Cheshire’s most coveted country lanes, Longridge has a harmonious equilibrium established between its modern architecture and its agrarian surroundings. The beautiful, landscaped gardens feel completely integrated into the design of the property, ensuring outside spaces are enjoyed as much as the spacious interior. At the front and to the side are patios being the places for coffees, long alfresco lunches, and evening sundowners. Set amidst a diversity of local wildlife and birds, adjoining an open vista with captivating and uninterrupted views across the pastoral landscape. Beyond the terrace is an expanse of lawn, interspersed with colour, flowerbeds, and more secluded spots to rest, sit and mull.
