Comments By Mark Johnson Frics - @ BAKER, WYNNE AND WILSON

"The detailing and workmanship are immaculate and the palette of materials confident, restrained and considered."

The vendors will be saying a sad farewell to a family home that has given them so much happiness and treasured memories. They hope that the future owners will enjoy the same qualities of life and that they may possibly benefit further from future potential planning permissions for separate or ancillary consents on the land.

This is one of the finest houses for sale in Cheshire at under £3,000,000 and a viewing is highly recommended.

Description - The setting is first class, but what about the house, outbuildings gardens and grounds? In my view, Stapleford Cottage, offers a rare blend of all four.

The house has been extended and enhanced through the years and offers delightful accommodation for the growing family that is circa 4829 square feet in total.

The most recent works were completed in late 2022, these included the renewal of bathrooms/ en suites and a new staircase to the remodelled landing, all of which now reflect the absolute best in modern day design and finish.

With five double bedrooms each served by an en suite, interested parties are sure to be wowed, particularly by the master suite, which can truly be said to be luxurious with a walk-in shower, a free-standing Victoria and Albert bath, the bespoke fitted wardrobes within the large dressing room combined with an equally large sleeping area. The views from this section/wing are truly outstanding with a south westerly facing aspect over the garden and pond and the rural vista beyond.

At ground floor level, the 2700 square feet of space is impeccably presented, light, appealing and extremely flexible. There are five reception rooms in addition to a large breakfast kitchen, useful utility room and several excellent storage areas.

The house is ideal for large family gatherings, celebratory parties and of course the daily rhythm of family life and creating special memories.

A hugely impressive factor of this home is the tasteful and perfectly delivered fusion of the original character with contemporary design and the flowing layout. So, whilst there are the modern comforts of high-grade double-glazed windows, bespoke kitchen and innovative bathrooms, these stand in perfect harmony with original feature fireplaces, wood burning stoves, exposed timbers, wooden beams, attractive flooring and one of the most appealing cellars I have ever been into!

Externally well what a setting this is! with the sweeping driveway approach that is flanked by well-tended lawns which has the feel of open parkland invitingly leading to the house and garaging. The formal gardens are beautifully stocked and provide an abundance of colour in Spring and Summer. For those who enjoy tennis there is a full-size court and the large pond is a haven for wildlife. The gardens delightfully wrap around the house and many of the key rooms enjoy aspects over the southwest facing rear garden.

The overall plot size is approx. 7.5 acres.

For a personal description of the property or to arrange a viewing, please contact myself, a member of the team at the Nantwich office or the joint agent Robert Reed LLB, Tarporley.
