Holt itself has a broad range of local amenities including public houses, two coffee shops, a general store with Post Office counter and Bellis Brothers Garden Centre and Farm Shop. Nearby Farndon offers additional choice whilst Chester and Wrexham provide a comprehensive offering.

Both Holt and Farndon have local primary schools with state secondary schools in Wrexham and Marford. Highly regarded local independent schooling is available at King’s and Queen’s Schools in Chester.

Holt is well placed for commuting to the commercial centres of the Northwest including Chester Business Park and Wrexham Industrial Estate. Chester station offers a direct service to London, Euston within 2 hours and Holt enjoys a regular bus service into Chester.

The property enjoys superb southerly views towards Holt Castle, with the river Dee beyond. The property offers scope to extend, where required, subject to the necessary planning consents.

Accommodation
A recessed double-glazed front door opens into a spacious central reception hall. Conveniently located off the reception hall is cloaks area with fitted cupboards, with an adjacent WC.

At the heart of the house is a spacious breakfast kitchen, having space for a large breakfast table. The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of bespoke oak cabinets, with high-quality integral appliances including a Miele double oven, a gas hob with extractor hood, a Miele coffee machine, and a fridge. The kitchen enjoys wonderful views across the gardens towards Holt castle, with a lovely south easterly aspect. Off the kitchen is a spacious utility room, with matching oak cabinets, a sink unit and plumbing and space for laundry appliances.

Along the hallway is a well-proportioned lounge, enjoying triple aspects and features a living flame fire within a decorative surround with marble inset and hearth. There is also a useful home office with fitted office furniture.

The bedroom accommodation occupies one end of the property, offering privacy from the receptions rooms and kitchen. The principal bedroom is particularly noteworthy, having an abundance of space with its fitted furniture, a walk-in dressing room with vanity sink and en suite bathroom with a traditional white suite. There are three further double bedrooms, two having vanity sink units, and bedroom 2 includes a corner shower cubicle with thermostatic shower. Bedroom 3 would equally suit as an additional reception room, where four bedrooms are not required.
