DESCRIPTION

The Oaklands is constructed of brick under a slate roof and approached through double gates over a blocked paved drive. This striking period house is a triumph of traditional character and understated modern luxury. Having undergone a comprehensive programme of high specification refurbishment and investment in recent years, the house extends to about 3,335 square feet. It is a wonderful individual house, and benefits from a substantial extension that was so sympathetically built that it is really hard to work out what is original and what is new. A fine pitch pine staircase leads from the entrance hall, continues to the second floor and unusually remains the same throughout.

Complimented by a versatile, detached former Coach House, a gated driveway, blue brick courtyard and private gardens, this property offers a rare lifestyle opportunity in one of Cheshire’s sought after villages.

LOCATION & AMENITIES

The Oaklands is located in the heart of Wrenbury adjacent to the village Bowling Green. Wrenbury is set amidst what is generally regarded as some of the finest countryside in South Cheshire, near to the Shropshire Union Canal. The village itself benefits from a wealth of local amenities including a shop/post office, catering for the recreational and shopping needs of the villagers. This includes a doctors surgery and dispensary, a local railway station, a local bus service, excellent pub/restaurant and a primary school. Alternatively, the towns of Nantwich, Crewe and Whitchurch can provide further amenities not available in the village. Wrenbury is conveniently situated in relation to other nearby cities, towns and business centres with Chester, Liverpool and Manchester within commuting distance. The main line railway station is also nearby and the major Crewe terminal with express line to London Euston (90 minutes) only 9 miles away. The market towns of Nantwich (5 miles) and Whitchurch (6 miles), Chester (19 miles) and Tarporley (11 miles) are within easy reach.
