House For Sale £1,500,000
Location
Guerdon House is set in an idyllic position in stunning Cheshire countryside and very close to the popular village of Bunbury.
Bunbury is a small, picturesque village with an excellent range of local amenities including a convenience store, a butcher, three public houses and a beautiful Church. Of particular note is Bunbury Primary School (0.5 mile from Guerdon House) which holds a reputation for academic excellence, and acts as a feeder for Tarporley High School.
Bunbury is just under 5 miles from Tarporley which is a highly sought-after village. Tarporley has an attractive High Street with a broad spectrum of independent shops and restaurants and a popular secondary school ('Outstanding' Ofsted 2014). Independent schooling is available at Kings and Queens in Chester and at Abbey Gate College in Saighton.
The City of Chester is one of the north west's leading retail and commercial centres serving a catchment area extending from Manchester to Shrewsbury and covering the whole of North Wales.
Chester also gives access to the motorway network providing a link to other north west and midlands conurbations and to Liverpool and Manchester airports. The property is only 14 miles from Crewe where there is a direct and regular rail service to London Euston (approximately 1 1/2 hours).
Leisure opportunities are easily at hand with a number of sporting clubs in Bunbury village, including cricket, bowls and tennis. There are also a number of pleasant walks in the area.
Description
Guerdon House is an extremely impressive property. In recent years it has undergone a comprehensive scheme of redevelopment and extension combining exacting standards of construction and design with high quality contemporary fixtures and fittings.
Notable features include a lovely, generous reception hall, an impressive open plan kitchen, a garage block offering potential for additional accommodation and running cost saving attributes such as ground source heating. In addition, it enjoys uninterrupted views across its own land to both Beeston and Peckforton castles.
The house is approached from the lane through electric gates and via a sweeping drive leading to a parking and turning area between the house and garage block. At the front door is a porch with useful under bench shoe storage and beyond a spacious hall with a staircase to the first floor at the far end.
To one side is an impressive drawing room with windows to three elevations and a fireplace with a log burner. On the other side of the hall is a sitting room, until recently used as a play room and a study with fitted shelving and desk space.
There is also a w.c. And laundry room and an outstanding open plan kitchen, with an island, a dining area and a garden room with French doors opening onto a terrace.
On the first floor is a master bedroom with a dressing room and ensuite bathroom. There are 4 further bedrooms, a family bathroom and a linen store. The second bedroom has access onto a large balcony also accessed via an external spiral staircase.
The large garage block has also been meticulously built and offers the potential for alternative uses of the above garage storage. The house is set in well stocked landscaped gardens which border the fields, with field shelter and a summer house, which offers potential for equestrian uses.
