Description:

OPEN VIEWS, SUPERB LOCATION AND EXCELLENT VALUE FOR MONEY An absolutely beautiful three bedroom detached cottage enjoying open views to the front having the benefit of a detached double garage. Full of character, spacious yet homely the charming accommodation comprises: Entrance vestibule, dining room, breakfast kitchen, utility room, shower room and superbly proportioned living room. First floor: Two very large double bedrooms, third single bedroom and a well appointed family bathroom. Outside: Detached double garage and off road parking, excellent views and well landscaped but manageable rear garden that enjoys a good level of seclusion and privacy. First class position within walking distance of Helsby High Street and close to Frodsham Town Centre. No ongoing chain.

Originally part of the Cholmondeley Estate, Woodhouses Cottage is a unique and visually appealing detached cottage that enjoys superb views to the front over open countryside in the lee of Helsby hill. The area as a whole is one of beauty and historical significance, with the property being in the lee of an iron age fort and in more modern day terms enjoying the wonderful combination of rural beauty with day to day convenience with a position very close to Frodsham Town Centre and Helsby High School.
As the name of the cottage and the road may suggest, the house is of great historical significance and an original shippon beam in the master bedroom has a date of 1791 within it. In more recent times the property has undergone an extensive scheme of sympathetic modernisation and improvement so as to provide a first class living environment with elegant spacious rooms that have been combined cleverly with original features of character and appeal.

At ground floor level the entrance vestibule is noticeable for its bespoke oak front door. The first room is a dining room with part sandstone walling and this space could alternatively be used as a study or family room if required. The T shaped breakfast kitchen was refitted within the last two years and has cream shaker style units and black granite preparation surfaces throughout. There is also ample space for table and chairs and a large window overlooking the view to the front. Off the kitchen is a useful utility room and ground floor shower room. Along side the kitchen, a further highlight of the ground floor is the outstandingly proportioned living room with central fireplace, aspect over rear garden and again a wonderful view to the front over open countryside.
At first floor level at either end of the house are large double bedrooms with vaulted ceilings, exposed ceiling beams and fitted bedroom furniture. In the middle of the two rooms is a third bedroom that has fitted bedroom furniture and is currently utilised as a study and a well appointed family bathroom. Throughout the accommodation has the benefit of double glazing which was installed within the last seven years.

Externally the rear garden is of a size and design very appropriate for those who are not seeking an external space that is overly onerous in terms of maintenance. The garden has been landscaped so as to mainly consist of paved patio areas, gravelled expanses and low maintenance borders. There is also a small area of lawn and various seating areas. The garden has its boundary clearly defined by a 7ft high brick wall.
Outside to the left and front of the property looking at the house is a superb and very large detached double garage which has the additional benefit of two parking spaces immediately in front of it. To the front there is a view over a field whilst to the rear there are small single storey dwellings, barely visible from the house, but with the advantage of only being occupied by those over 60 living without pets or children. This aids the overall sense of tranquillity, peace and privacy within the area.
The property is offered with no ongoing chain.
The property has Infra-red audible CCTV and the Police connected alarm system

Frodsham is a much sought after market town, well supplied with a wide variety of shops, restaurants, a post office, doctors and dentists surgeries and excellent schools. (Helsby High School is within walking distance of the property) There is easy access to Chester, Liverpool, Manchester and North Wales via an extensive roadway system including the M53 and M56 motorways and travel to London from nearby Runcorn station is less than two hours away.
Leisure attractions include several golf courses at Frodsham, Helsby, Sutton Hall and Delamere, walking in Delamere Forect, Castle Park, Manley Mere and the sandstone trail.
