Description

An exceptional apartment of outstanding quality, beautifully appointed throughout and forming part of the impressive conversion of Backford Hall — a striking Grade II listed residence dating back to the mid-19th century. Set within the prestigious Backford Park development, this remarkable home occupies a place within an exclusive collection of just ten individually designed apartments created by Jones Homes. Offered with no onward chain, the property presents a superb turnkey opportunity, combining elegant period character with contemporary luxury, including two generous double bedrooms and a magnificent open-plan living space.
A particular highlight of this apartment is its private entrance, in addition to access via the grand communal hallway. Both approaches open into an inviting reception hall, enhanced by high ceilings and decorative coving, immediately setting the tone for the accommodation beyond.

Positioned at the front of the property is the impressive open-plan living, dining, and kitchen space — the true centrepiece of the home. Extending the full length of the apartment, this expansive and light-filled room benefits from four large sash windows that frame delightful views across the beautifully maintained communal grounds.

The kitchen is thoughtfully designed in a contemporary U-shaped layout with a breakfast bar, featuring sleek light grey high-gloss cabinetry paired with elegant white quartz work surfaces. A full range of integrated Neff appliances includes a fridge freezer, dishwasher, induction hob, oven, microwave, and washing machine.

The dining area flows effortlessly from the kitchen and showcases the apartment’s carefully restored original features, including cast iron radiators, intricate ceiling coving, and fine period detailing. The space comfortably accommodates a large dining table, ideal for entertaining, while the adjoining living area offers a striking cast iron fireplace, fitted cabinetry, and ample room for substantial seating.

An inner hallway leads to the bedroom accommodation. The principal bedroom is a spacious double, complete with bespoke fitted wardrobes and access to a stylish en-suite shower room. This is fitted with a high-quality three-piece suite by Villeroy & Boch, comprising a walk-in shower, WC, and vanity unit. The second bedroom is equally well-proportioned, benefiting from a large sash window and fitted wardrobes, and is served by a contemporary main bathroom featuring a bath with rainfall shower over, WC, and vanity sink unit. An additional airing cupboard provides useful storage and houses the hot water system.
Externally, the property benefits from two allocated parking spaces — one within a secure gated residents’ car park and a second positioned conveniently outside the private entrance. The development is further enhanced by beautifully landscaped communal gardens, maintained to a high standard.

Backford Park is a thoughtfully designed development that harmoniously blends modern homes with the historic character of Backford Hall. Located within the charming village of Backford, known for its historic 13th-century church, the setting offers excellent connectivity via the A41 to Liverpool, Wirral, and beyond, as well as easy access to the M53 and M56 motorway networks. Nearby rail services from Little Sutton and Hooton provide direct links into Liverpool city centre. The property is also ideally positioned for access to Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet, the historic city of Chester, and the renowned Chester Zoo.
