138 Hartford Road, Davenham, CW9 8JP

Rooted in village history, Davenham’s long-time flower shop has blossomed into a spacious, beautifully reimagined home designed with multigenerational living in mind.

Nestled within the heart of ever-popular Davenham, No. 138, Hartford Road blends the community of village living with convenience and connectivity, with excellent access to Hartford, Northwich and the wider Cheshire commuter network.

Stripped back to the brickwork and completely reimagined throughout, No. 138 has undergone a comprehensive renovation; rewired, replumbed and replastered throughout, transforming it, in essence, into a brand-new home dressed in character wrapping and configured for contemporary family life designed to adapt effortlessly alongside changing needs.

Pull onto the driveway, where there is plenty of parking for two or three cars. Discreet and tucked away, the green border to the front provides a leafy buffer of privacy between home and the world beyond.

Welcome home

OWNER QUOTE: “We walked in and were blown away by the size of the home; it was instantly clear to me how to reconfigure it into a family home.”

Step inside and into the crisply contemporary entrance hall, where grey porcelain tiles and white walls create a fresh first impression. Ideal for modern family living, a utility room ahead offers plenty of space for dog beds and football boots, with plumbing for a washer-dryer. Also tucked off the spacious entrance hall is a separate cloakroom, with vanity unit wash basin, WC and additional storage.

Feast your eyes

Drenched in light, the modern kitchen-dining-family room to the left is the natural hub of the home. Bifolding doors draw light from the front, opening to a sunny, part-walled courtyard, ideal for al fresco dining. Above the central island with breakfast bar seating, light also streams down through the large roof lantern above.

Soft sage green cabinetry – part of a cohesive colour scheme that connects the spaces throughout - provides plenty of storage, contrasting with slender, white granite [SI1] worktops.

Sociable, spacious and made for modern family life, this is a room designed as much for entertaining as it is for unwinding, where guests can flow easily between the kitchen, dining and seating areas and, in warmer months, spill naturally out into the garden beyond.

Prepare meals with ease - a range of integrated appliances includes a fridge freezer, dishwasher, oven and induction hob - while children spread out with homework at the table, chat with guests over a glass of wine as food simmers on the induction hob, or arrive home on a winter evening to the welcoming warmth of the remote-operated electric wood-burning stove already glowing.

Character and comfort

Meanwhile, to the right of the entrance hall, step up into the warmth and welcome of the lounge. Carpeted in neutral shades, with glorious garden views through the bay-fronted window to the front, this is a sophisticated and serene retreat set apart from the main family hub, offering a place to relax and unwind.

Adding to the character feel of the home, a feature stone fireplace sits to the corner, currently fitted with the electrics for a remote-operated fire if desired, while also offering the option for an authentic log burner if preferred.

Room to grow

Suffused in light from a window overlooking the front, an inner hall leads past the staircase and to a sequestered double bedroom.

Set apart from the sociable heart of the home, this peaceful, private bedroom occupies the quietest corner of the home, removed from the movement and energy of the kitchen dining space. Designed with longevity and flexibility in mind, it lends itself beautifully as a ground-floor master suite and is equally suited to multigenerational living, visiting relatives or simply the reassurance of future-proofed accommodation as life evolves over time.

Softly carpeted and featuring a characterful ornamental fireplace, the bedroom also contains a good-size walk-in wardrobe and a spacious en suite shower room, with porcelain tiling underfoot.

Rest and refresh

Take the cream carpeted stairs up from the inner hall, where they divide at the top, leading to bedroom two on the right at the end. A large, light filled potential master suite, with fresh minimal décor and views out over the comings and goings of Hartford Road, this room even features its own dressing room, with a large window and first fix plumbing, should you wish to create another en suite.

To the left of this bedroom, with leafy views out, bedroom four is another comfortable double, following the same neutral motif of warm oatmeal toned carpet and fresh white walls. Chrome sockets and switches throughout reinforce the high-quality finish of this cohesive and calm home.

The left branch of stairs leads to a large bathroom, furnished with a double ended bath with floor mounted tap, wide, separate shower, wash basin and WC, bathed in light once more as porcelain tiles flow underfoot.

Suffused in light, windows to two aspects of bedroom three, another warm and welcoming double, offer leafy views out to the trees beyond, completing the quartet of bedrooms at No. 138, Hartford Road.

Entertain outdoors

Draw back the bifolding doors from the sociable family kitchen-diner and step out into the low maintenance courtyard, walled to one corner, with borders for seasonal colour and fenced to the remaining sides, making it safe and secure for those with children or pets.

Retaining the warmth of the day long into the evening, the courtyard becomes a real suntrap in summertime, serving as a sheltered outdoor space for hosting, entertaining and simply unwinding, offering a blank canvas for those wishing to personalise it to their own tastes.

Out and about
