Victoria Road, Little Neston, Cheshire

This extraordinary three bedroom Little Neston residence is a rare example of architectural mastery, where centuries old craftsmanship meets contemporary design in perfect harmony. The property artfully integrates a Grade II listed 17th century house with a modern extension by architects Azzurri, resulting in a home that feels both historic and strikingly current. Every element of this house demonstrates meticulous care and precision, creating a residence that exudes refinement at every turn.The original building has been thoughtfully preserved, with key historic features such as the cruck frame and exposed beams left intact. Slate roof tiles and windows have been replaced with sensitive, high quality alternatives, while solid oak doors and flooring complement the exposed sandstone walls. Underfloor heating ensures modern comfort without compromising the character of the interiors. Every detail, from the built in sound system to the choice of finishes, reflects a commitment to superior quality and careful consideration.Arriving along a secluded lane, the property is approached through electric gates leading to a gravel driveway and a garage with double doors. The entrance is a striking glazed link with an aluminium framed roof, opening to a reception space with a log burning stove. The adjoining newly fitted kitchen dining area is a study in thoughtful design, combining exposed beams, a central island, and top of the line appliances, including double ovens, a warming drawer, and a wine cooler. The space flows naturally into an expansive reception room, anchored by a granite fireplace and illuminated by bi folding doors that open onto the garden. The principal suite is a sanctuary of light and proportion, featuring a vaulted ceiling, a luxurious en-suite, and a walk in wardrobe. Two additional double bedrooms provide flexible accommodation, with scope to convert the garage into a fourth bedroom.The gardens are an exceptional feature, designed with privacy and elegance in mind. Enclosed by sandstone walls, the outdoor space enjoys a sunny aspect and includes multiple seating areas with an expansive newly laid Kandla grey stone patio, lawn, mature planting, summer house, brick built pizza oven and a log store. Every corner of this home has been crafted with care, resulting in a property that combines historical significance with a level of refinement and grandeur rarely found.
