Description:

Set in beautiful grounds of around three acres and enjoying almost complete privacy - a beautifully extended and superbly appointed detached house of quality and character extending to just over 4000 sq ft. Approached via a sweeping in and out driveway the main house accommodation comprises: Entrance hall, sitting room, morning room, study, dining room, outstanding bespoke breakfast kitchen and spacious utility room off. First floor: Wonderful master suite comprising bedroom, dressing area and ensuite bathroom. Guest suite with dressing room and ensuite facility in addition to two further bedrooms and bathroom. An exceptional home that must be viewed to be fully appreciated.

Residential properties of this quality and character, set in grounds of three acres and enjoying wonderful views rarely come to the open market. Greenfields is situated in a tranquil and idyllic country lane where properties are continually in demand. The beauty of the location belies its position just 7.5 miles from the historic City Centre of Chester and 10 minutes drive from the splended and highly desirable Georgian High Street of Tarporley.
The present clients have lived in the property for just under thirty years and have overseen a comprehensive and hugely impressive range of extensions and improvements. Today, these works combine to form a first class family home which stylishly represents the best of Victorian architecture and contemporary living concepts. There is superb attention to detail in evidence throughout with stone mullion windows and timber double glazed windows combining with the modern specification that includes a comprehensive oil fired central heating system, hardwood internal doors, internal audio system, electronic alarm system and bespoke Cheshire Furniture company kitchen and superb bathrooms.

At ground floor level there is a very large entrance hall from which can be accessed four separate reception rooms. Each is an excellent size and could easily be adapted to suit individual requirements. The highlight of the ground floor living space is the bespoke Cheshire Furniture Company open plan farmhouse style breakfast kitchen that overlooks the gorgeous landscaped grounds. Off the breakfast kitchen is a very useful utility room from which a door leads to the integral double garage.
The first floor is similarly luxurious. Off a wonderfully open T-shaped landing there are four bedrooms. The master bedroom is an excellent suite comprising a very large bedroom, dressing room with bespoke furniture and an excellent ensuite bathroom. The guest suite has its own shower room with extensive fitted wardrobes and dressing table integrated within. The two further bedrooms are very comfortable doubles.
As already mentioned, there are truly superb gardens that extend to the front, side and rear. The in and out driveway to the front is secured by electrically operated security gates centred between brick pillars whilst the gardens to the side and rear incorporate mature shrubs, plants, trees, raised seating areas and a small pond. The two acre paddock is accessed from the garden and also has the benefit of having gated vehicular access from the lane. The double garage can be accessed from both the house via the utility room and the front driveway by twin doors.

The village of Hargrave is a beautiful area set alongside the Shropshire Union Canal. The nearby village of Tattenhall offers a comprehensive range of services including general store, butcher, chemist, doctor surgeries, pubs, restaurants, wine bar and a very popular primary school. The historic City Centre of Chester is just seven miles distance. On the recreational front there are several golf courses locally at Waverton, Carden Park and Aldersey and for those with an equestrian interest there is racing at Chester and Bangor on Dee and for motor racing enthusiasts there is racing at Oulton Park. There is well served access to the M53/M56 motorways beyond Chester permitting daily travel to all areas of commerce throughout the North West via the national motorway network and Liverpool and Manchester International Airports are 29 and 32 miles respectively and travel to London is available via Chester and Crewe railway stations that provide two hour inner city service to Euston.
In addition the Georgian High Street of Tarporley is just 10 minutes away and the village has an increasingly impressive range of individual shops, restaurants and other such amenities.
