Description:
Enjoying an absolutely unique position next to the glorious and distinctive sandstone Norton water tower - a truly fabulous five bedroom, five reception room family house set in large gardens and within very close distance of a highly regarded primary school. Significantly remodelled and beautifully finished accommodation comprising: Entrance vestibule, cloakroom, entrance hall, dance studio, study/library, living room, garden room, breakfast room, kitchen. First Floor: Landing, master bedroom with ensuite shower room, four further bedrooms, family bathroom and storage/airing cupboard. Off road parking. Large private garden.
When considering any house purchase location is of paramount importance. There are also many who seek a unique element or feature linked to the house they are buying. If these are the two criteria you are applying to your house search, 2 Norton Tower Cottages is sure to fulfil both needs. The location is excellent, close to a comprehensive road network system, a very close distance of a highly regarded primary school and being tucked away down a quiet lane containing just two other properties. The unique feature is the property's close proximity to one of the regions most visually striking landmarks - a sandstone water tower. The water tower is striking, distinctive and very imposing and it can be said with confidence that only two other properties in the region have such a neighbour!
Not only is the location unusual and excellent but the house is also absolutely remarkable. The current owners have painstakingly designed and reconfigured the accommodation to suit family occupation and in doing so have invested considerable capital expenditure. Upon internal viewing the breadth, scope and versatility of the accommodation becomes immediately apparent and has to be viewed to be truly appreciated.
At ground floor level there is a cloakroom off the entrance vestibule which in turn leads to the spacious entrance hall. Four separate reception rooms off the entrance hall can be used for a variety of different requirements. It is at the back of the house though that the house has a most contempory twist with a superb garden/family room overlooking the rear garden and linking superbly to the breakfast room and breakfast kitchen. The kitchen is absolutely fantastic and represents the very best in modern day design and finish.
At first floor level the master bedroom has many notable features. Firstly its size, secondly its glass balustrade/patio doors that overlook the rear garden and the recently refitted ensuite which is both funky and practicable in equal measure. The four remaining bedrooms are all of excellent proportions and are served by a well appointed family bathroom.
Externally there is off road parking to the front whilst the rear garden has been landscaped and imaginatively designed. There is a large area of lawn, Indian stone patio and of course the view of the neighbouring sandstone tower.
Norton village lies close to both the market towns of Frodsham and Runcorn. 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. 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. Also Frodsham railway station.
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.

EXTERNAL
To the front of the property there is a tarmacadam driveway and a parking bay to front of house which in all provides off road parking for approximately four vehicles. There is also a good sized area of garden to the front that has been landscaped and incorporates a paved Indian stone path leading to the front entrance door, a good sized area of lawn and raised low maintenance chipped borders. A panelled fence marks the boundary with the next door neighbour whilst the path leads down the side of the property through a timber gate which in turn leads to the rear garden.
The rear garden has a Westerly aspect and is noticeable for the size, privacy and quality of landscaping. The size is very generous and ideal for a family with there being a large flat expanse of lawn and the boundaries are clearly defined by a boundary wall and panelled fencing. The privacy is noticeable and from the rear of the garden the spectacular aspect and view over the neighbouring sandstone Norton Water Tower can be enjoyed. The quality of landscaping is evident by virtue of the Indian stone expanses and the low maintenance chipped beds and borders. In the far corner of the garden there are two timber storage sheds in addition to a pergola.
