4 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

When it comes to attractive facades this beautiful former Duke of Westminster home has the kerb appeal box well and truly ticked.  The fantastic semi-rural location is ideal for access into Chester City centre, and for those who need to commute you are a stone's throw away from major road networks. The beautiful interior has period features such as exposed wood flooring and wood burning stove.  The spacious inside is ideal for any family and equally matched for appeal with the large garden plot. 

 Walking you through the inside, we start with the hallway, where you will discover plenty of space for shoes and coats, while a staircase rises to the first floor, and wood interior doors lead off into the main living areas. There is also a downstairs WC with half height panelled walls and attractive tiled flooring. The lounge has a cosy feel and enjoys a lovely wood burning stove, it’s flooded with light thanks to both a window to the front elevation and French doors opening out onto the rear garden. The dining room is spacious with wood flooring, with plenty of space for a large formal dining table and chairs, whilst a door leads into the useful cloakroom. The kitchen is located to the rear of the property and is fitted with ample base and wall units, with space for a range cooker and full height fridge-freezer, plus a great central island offering seating and under counter storage.  There is also a built-in pantry which is heaven for anyone looking for extra storage in their kitchen. Leading off the kitchen is an additional hallway which leads to the useful utility room. Going upstairs, the first-floor landing area allows for access to the four bedrooms, along with the separate WC and family bathroom.  The bedrooms are all of a good size, with the bathroom offering a modern suite with roll top bath, twin wash basins and large separate shower cubicle.

 Outside, the house is approached through electrically operated double wooden gates, which open onto an extensive gravelled parking area, with parking for 8 to 10 vehicles and an EV charging point. A pedestrian gate to the side provides access to the fabulous rear garden where the open views over farmland will take your breath away, and on a clear day, views of the Welsh Hills in the distance.  It really is a stunning garden space to be in with extensive lawns, a patio seating area, and the fantastic addition of a home office, with attached covered outside seating and entertaining area.  This spot in the garden is such a perfect place to relax and enjoy valuable time with friends and family, and the best part is that you can do it all year round, thanks to outside heating, light and power.

 You really need to step into this home to appreciate just what a fabulous property this is, and we would love to meet you and be able to show you just what is on offer.

The Seller's View

Since we first saw Alpha Cottage, we absolutely fell in love with it. Not just its charm as a beautiful house, but the lovely gardens, the view to the farm, and the back garden being a south facing sun trap, outdoor living has become an absolute joy. We have put a lot of love into this house, and the renovations we have made have been in keeping with its original features, which absolutely maintain the original style of the house. We have great neighbours here, but all enjoy our privacy, and we rarely see or even hear each other, which makes it such a private location. One of the surprise benefits that we found living here is the No.1 bus, with a bus stop around 100m away, you can be in Chester City centre in around 20 minutes, and at Chester Station in around 25 minutes, which also has the benefit of fast trains to London. The last bus back is usually at around 11:45pm, so it’s easy to get home after a night out as well.
