Barbers View, Kelsall, Tarporley

Grade A energy efficiency rated detached house enjoying exceptional views of open countryside and providing four bedrooms, three bathrooms and superb open plan kitchen dining family room
Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman

This fantastic detached residence occupies an excellent position at the head of a select cul de sac where it commands truly spectacular views across the rolling expanse of the surrounding open countryside.

Only 3% of houses in the whole of the UK have a Grade A energy efficiency rating and this is one of them! It is scored 93 out of 100 and had integrated solar panels and impressive levels of insulation which reflect the forward thinking craftsmanship of the developer. Archway Homes is a family business based locally at Great Barrow and is know for creating exclusive bespoke developments that prioritise architectural excellence and premium construction quality.

Located on what is arguably the best plot in the site, this particular property enjoys a notably wide garden which has been landscaped to incorporate both a good size expanse of lawn and a large raised patio area. It also commands the most wonderful rural views. Quite literally on the doorstep is a footpath that leads to glorious rural walks towards Oscroft and surrounds.

The interior begins with a welcoming entrance hall where a solid oak staircase as a sophisticated focal point. To the left of the hall is a comfortable living room with a wood burning stove. The true heart of the home at the back of the house is the stunning open plan breakfast kitchen, dining and family room This expansive space epitomizes modern design and high end finish, whilst also offering panoramic views and direct garden access through double width doors. Furnishings wise this space allows for a dining table and chairs, sofas and easy chairs, and the present owners even have within it a pool table. There would also be potential to create a study area if required. A comprehensively equipped kitchen is supported by a practical utility room located just to the side.

The original garage has been cleverly adapted to provide storage at the front and a treatment room or home office behind a stud partition, though this could be easily reinstated as a traditional garage if desired.

The first floor continues the theme of luxury where the principal bedroom suite features bespoke fitted wardrobes and an impressive en-suite shower room and the second bedrooms also has both of these features. The two remaining bedrooms are comfortable doubles and there is also a good size and well equipped family bathroom.

This really is something special and I recommend an early viewing.

The area as a whole has access to glorious countryside and places of significant interest that include ancient castles, boating facilities on nearby canals and the outstanding Delamere Forest.

There are a number of pubs in the village, but worthy of particular attention is that in recent times Brunning & Price have completed their full refurbishment of the pub in the centre of the village, The Morris Dancer. This outstanding public house/restaurant has already been met with wide acclaim and is worthy of inspection along with the recently relaunched Royal Oak, the Farmers Guardian / Birds Nest Café and Willington¿s The Boot Inn, famous to all locals for the amazing homemade pies.
