York Drive, Grappenhall, Warrington, WA4

Standing proudly across three floors and boasting five bedrooms, this beautiful and characterful Victorian family home occupies one of Grappenhall’s most sought-after locations, right in the heart of the Conservation Area.

This impressive property is the embodiment of a forever family home and is a real credit to the current owners, who have enjoyed many happy years here. Offered with no onward chain, a new owner could move straight in with little or nothing to do. The property has been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully upgraded over the years, offering the perfect blend of characterful period features alongside modern, contemporary living spaces.

The property also occupies an excellent plot, with ample off-road parking to the front, together with a generous and private rear garden. To the side is a garage which has been partially converted to create a versatile garden room/office/studio, with useful storage space retained to the front.

Internally, the accommodation briefly comprises a welcoming entrance hall with open staircase and log-burning fire, a bay-fronted living room, and an impressive open-plan kitchen/family room which flows through to the dining room and opens directly onto the rear garden. The ground floor is completed by an essential utility room and downstairs WC.

To the first floor are four well-proportioned double bedrooms, together with the family bathroom and an en-suite shower room to the principal bedroom. The second floor is home to the most recent addition to the property: a spacious fifth bedroom with eaves storage, built-in wardrobes and en-suite shower room. This versatile space would make an excellent principal bedroom, but would be equally well suited as a guest suite or accommodation for older children.

Externally, the property is every bit as impressive, with its striking classic Victorian villa design complemented by a front garden and generous off-road parking. To the rear, the exceptionally spacious garden offers an Indian sandstone patio, lawn, children’s play area and, without doubt, the standout feature — a spectacular mature oak tree, believed to be as old as the house itself.

An internal viewing is essential to fully appreciate the size, character and quality of finish this wonderful home has to offer. To arrange your private viewing, contact Alex Beswick at Yopa or visit our website.

In the Sellers’ own words:
“We moved to York Drive in 2008 and have raised our three children here.  From the moment we walked through the front door when we first came to view, it felt like home.  There's something really calming about the house and location - making it a great place to come back to after a busy day at work.  Location-wise, it's a fantastic area in which to live, really peaceful, and with lovely neighbours too.  We've enjoyed putting our mark on the house itself whilst trying to maintain its originality wherever possible, and there's still loads of scope to do more with it, if you fancy!  We've made countless many happy memories here that we'll cherish forever, and are sure it will be more of the same in the hands of new owners.“
