Description
Approached via a driveway with an attractive lawned front garden and established planting, the property opens into a welcoming entrance hall with engineered oak flooring and a staircase leading to the first floor. The living room is a lovely, light-filled space, with a large bow window overlooking the front garden and plenty of room for comfortable seating, making it the perfect place to unwind at the end of the day.
The real heart of the home lies to the rear, where the extended kitchen flows effortlessly into a bright and spacious dining and family room. The kitchen makes a bold statement with its striking red high-gloss cabinetry, contrasting black granite worktops and contemporary tiled splashbacks, complemented by integrated appliances and sleek stainless-steel fittings. Beyond, the dining and family room is an inviting space designed for spending time together, with room for a generous dining table and a cosy seating area. A roof lantern floods the room with natural light, while French doors open onto the patio, bringing the garden into everyday life and creating a fantastic setting for summer gatherings and entertaining.
Also on the ground floor is a stylish bathroom, featuring a spa bath with rainfall shower, contemporary fittings, decorative patterned flooring and plantation shutters. A separate utility cupboard provides useful laundry space and houses the gas combination boiler.
Upstairs, the two-storey extension has helped create three well-proportioned bedrooms, each offering flexibility for family life. The principal bedroom is a particularly generous double, enjoying a wide window overlooking the front of the property and plenty of space for bedroom furniture. The second bedroom is another comfortable room with views towards the garden, while the third offers a surprisingly versatile space, currently arranged with a raised cabin-style bed, ideal for a child's bedroom, guest accommodation or a home study.
Outside, the rear garden is a real highlight. Enjoying a south-easterly aspect, it offers a generous expanse of lawn framed by mature trees, established shrubs and colourful planting, creating a wonderfully green and inviting setting. The paved patio provides the perfect spot for outdoor dining, morning coffee or simply enjoying the sunshine, while the garden itself offers plenty of room for children to play and for keen gardeners to make their mark.
At the far end of the garden sits a charming timber summerhouse, complete with double glazing, power and recessed lighting. Whether used as a peaceful retreat, creative studio or relaxing hideaway, it adds another dimension to the property. The detached garage has also been cleverly divided, retaining practical storage to the front while providing a separate home office to the rear, ideal for those looking for a dedicated workspace away from the main house.
The location is equally appealing. Vicars Cross has long been a favourite with families thanks to its established residential surroundings, convenient amenities and excellent access to Chester city centre. Oldfield Primary School and Christleton High School are nearby, subject to admissions arrangements, while Sainsbury's, Aldi and a variety of local facilities are within easy reach. Excellent road connections also make travelling around Chester and beyond particularly convenient.
With its substantial extension, sociable living spaces, generous garden and the added flexibility of a home office and summerhouse, this is a property with real personality. Offering much more than a traditional three-bedroom semi-detached home, it combines comfort, character and practicality in a location that continues to be highly sought after.
