DESCRIPTION
Swetenhams is delighted to showcase this property which represents a rare opportunity to purchase what must be the ultimate solution for the modern blended family.
Built in 1864 with 11'6 high open beam ceilings, the property is located adjacent to Runcorn Hill local nature reserve and Heath Park.
There is a purpose built bungalow/annexe in the gardens which was originally designed for elderly relatives, but which could easily house family members of all ages who need the perfect mix of proximity and detachment.
The annexe is fully self contained with its own vehicle access and parking. This could be the ultimate private 'work from home' venue and could serve those providing discreet client/ patient consultations.
The house is unique in itself and bursting with visual interest and appeal. The use of the word, 'cottage' in the title is something of a misnomer. Make no mistake, this is a thoroughly large and spacious four bedroom family home.
A home for all seasons no less, with later extensions to the side and rear providing a 24' lounge and 26' dining kitchen with lantern ceiling which floods this portion of the house with an air of light and spaciousness, all enclosed in a generous established garden plot in which to while away those hazy summer days in what may well be your forever home.
There are excellent road networks M56 and M62 plus direct rail links to Chester, Liverpool, Manchester and London. The airports of Manchester and Liverpool are close by.

24' lounge, dining room, further lounge/snug and 26' dining kitchen.
