Description
Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman
This highly individual and very appealing cottage is an outstanding example of its type and represents a very rare buying opportunity at under £400,000.
The subject property is noted as being of special architectural and historic interest and richly deserves the Grade II listed status it has been afforded. It also has the advantage of having been comprehensively and painstakingly upgraded in the last seven years, with a very attractive blend of original features and tasteful contemporary quality and refinement.
The house is believed to date from 1870 and has been sensitively extended and enhanced through the years. The house is timber framed with brick infill and plain tile roof. All the windows on this front have decorative glazing bars forming a honeycomb pattern of hexagons.
The obvious highlight at the back of the house is the open plan breakfast kitchen and family room, which also runs open plan to a utility area. This provides the hub of day to day life and glazed oak double doors lead out to the garden. The main living room had a beautiful brick fireplace as its focal point and views to the front. The study can accommodate two desks, ideal for working from home or if required this can be a third bedroom. The ground floor bathroom is of crisp modern finish.
Upstairs there is a large double bedroom. The other bedroom is presently used as a dressing room, making this an excellent overall suite format.
Externally there is ample parking and turning space, a useful outbuilding for storage and a good size garden, much improved by the present owners but with the potential to be enhanced and developed further.
Canal side walks, footpaths through open fields and rural hamlet strolls can all be enjoyed without the need for a car. Also close by are the Beeston and Peckforton Hills and Sandstone Trail.
For a personal description of the property or to arrange a viewing, please contact myself or a member of the team at the Tarporley office.

Location
Tiverton is a popular semi rural hamlet that is just two miles from Tarporley village centre. Tiverton has its own website tiverton-cheshire.org.uk. As well as convenient accessibility for local walks, there is a popular canal side cafe and other local amenities adjacent to the canal. The long established Deeside Ramblers is also located a short walk away providing hockey for all ages.
Tarporley is one of Cheshire's most highly regarded villages that boasts a diverse selection of amenities including a community centre, tennis courts, convenience stores, fashion boutiques, cafes, restaurants, public houses, doctors' surgery, dentists, three Churches and a very extensive bus route. There is also a golf course and private gymnasium / swimming pool on the edge of the village.
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 Sandstone Ridges of Cheshire. Wonderful walks are provided via the Whitegate Way and Sandstone Trail.
Whilst the area is renowned for its outstanding natural beauty, the house also offers an excellent base for the business traveller. In terms of road links, there are extensive connections to the M56, M6 and M53. The A49, A51 and A55 all link to key areas of commerce and interest.
