5 bedroom house

A grand stone built house of impressive proportions nestling in a secluded, mature 2 acre garden plot with panoramic views over Cheshire. The house was built in 1904 and has been recently renovated and extended and provides excellent family accommodation.

The house has been recently renovated and extended with great care taken to retain and enhance the period character and charm. Built from local sandstone cut from the adjacent quarry, the house has a wonderfully solid look and feel. Natural stone and oak feature throughout to add warmth and character. The renovations completed included the installation of aluminium framed double glazed windows set into the stone mullions, a new oil fired central heating system with under floor heating to the ground floor, introduction of internal wall and floor insulation and a solar water heating system. These combined measures ensure warmth and relative economy with annual heating costs of around £2500 per year. The internal layout is perfect for modern family living. There is a spacious open plan family kitchen/dining/social area for larger gatherings plus a separate formal dining room, a cosy family room, utility room and conservatory.

The first floor offers five double bedrooms and three bathrooms.
The house is set well back from the lane and stands in just over 2 acres of gardens and land. There is a sweeping gravel driveway and extensive parking/turning space. Outbuildings include a detached double garage, timber framed storage bay, stable block and a further stone built garage. The land includes a large garden area with a wide timber deck, lawn and natural sandstone walling. There is a vegetable plot and greenhouse plus a paddock with separate gated entrance. The land slopes to the rear and there is a further area of paddock backing onto Frodsham Golf Club.
