Whiteholme, Heathfield Road, Audlem, CW3

AN EXCEPTIONAL, ONE OFF, 1950’S DETACHED HOUSE WITH A TERRIFIC SOUTH WEST FACING REAR GARDEN, IN A LOVELY ESTABLISHED, SLIGHTLY ELEVATED, SETTING 300 YARDS FROM AUDLEM VILLAGE CENTRE

DESCRIPTION

Whiteholme was built in the 1930’s of brick with rendered and part tiled elevations under a tiled roof. It stands well back from the road, approached over a block paved drive leading to a car parking area.

Set in a plot of 0.30 of an acre, this exceptional family home offers a layout, specification and garden setting that is perfectly aligned with modern day living requirements. The house itself has been radically, yet tastefully, transformed by the current owners in recent years and has the benefit of a large wrap around extension. The real highlight of the interior is the open plan kitchen/family/breakfast room with folding doors to the dining room. This area is so light and elegant and represents the very best in modern day design and finish.

Externally the mature and private garden features a flagged terrace, deck with electrically operated awning, pergola with hot tub, an additional garden area with an open fronted summer house, garden room/gym and kitchen garden.

LOCATION & AMENITIES

Whiteholme occupies a great, slightly elevated position, 300 yards from Audlem village centre. Audlem was mentioned in the Doomsday book as Aldelyme, and Edward 1 granted a market charter in 1295. Audlem is on the Shropshire Union canal, which has a run of 15 locks, designed by Thomas Telford to raise the canal 93 feet from the Cheshire plain to the Shropshire plain. The River Weaver passes West of the village. The sought after, award winning, village of Audlem caters for daily needs with local co-operative store, newsagents, dry cleaners, butchers, flower shop, two restaurants, café, three public houses and a medical centre. Nantwich (7 miles) offers a more comprehensive range of services with High Street Retailers, banks, restaurants, leisure facilities and supermarkets. Crewe station (11 miles) provides a fast intercity rail network (London Euston 90 minutes, Manchester 40 minutes). The M6 motorway (Junction 16) is 11 miles. Manchester Airport is 40 miles. There are numerous sports facilities in the area including tennis, bowling, cricket, football, running and cycling clubs in Audlem. There are two 18 hole golf courses at nearby Whitchurch.
