Bannel Lane, Buckley, CH7

Tucked away in a stunning semi-rural spot, this substantial detached home (house and annex - five bedrooms in total) offers the best of both worlds: total tranquillity, yet just a short drive from local amenities. Set well back from the road and approached by a long, winding driveway, the property is perfect for those seeking privacy and space.

The main house is full of character, with four generous reception rooms offering flexible living and entertaining spaces. The sitting room features a wood-burning stove, creating a cosy retreat for winter evenings. The solid wood, country-style kitchen is the heart of the home, boasting a vaulted ceiling, granite work surfaces, a Belfast sink, and some integrated appliances. The ground floor also offers three other flexible reception rooms, including a sitting room, dining room, and a breakfast room.

Upstairs, you’ll find three double bedrooms, all with lovely views, two bathrooms (family bathroom and en-suite to master), and a large attic room that could be used as a playroom, or home office. There’s also a handy workshop and gym, ideal for hobbies or fitness enthusiasts.

The annexe is a real bonus, with its own reception room, kitchen/utility, two double bedrooms, bathroom, and even a sauna (perfect for unwinding after a long day). The annexe bathroom is currently en-suite to Bedroom 1, but with a simple knock-through, it could become a Jack & Jill bathroom to serve both bedrooms. The whole property benefits from oil-fired central heating and double-glazing throughout, ensuring comfort all year round.

Stepping outside, you’ll find the grounds extend to around an acre (including a paddock at the front), making this home a rare find for anyone who loves outdoor living. The paddock has previously been used for horses and could easily accommodate them again. It’s also ideal for dog agility, or perhaps for those dreaming of starting a smallholding. The front approach is impressive, with a gated entrance opening onto a large gravel driveway that provides ample parking for several vehicles. The detached double garage is equipped with light and power, and there’s a personnel door at the rear for easy access.

The property also enjoys a secluded side garden, a sunny courtyard area perfect for morning coffee or alfresco dining, and an enclosed rear garden that’s safe for children and pets. Whether you’re looking to keep animals, grow your own produce, or simply relax in peaceful surroundings, this home offers a fantastic blend of space, versatility, and rural charm.

This wonderful home is a rare find and is not anticipated to hang round for long. Call the office now to secure your viewing!
