House For Sale £625,000
1 Tunnel End was built in the 1800’s as a toll keepers cottage and is an outstanding detached country cottage, overlooking a canal and located just outside the village of Dutton. It boasts four bedrooms and extensive and excellent accommodation, presented in an impeccable fashion.
Entering the property on the ground floor, you are greeted by a large boot room, leading to a kitchen with Rayburn range cooker and an additional cooker with a gas hob, beautiful flagstone flooring, cornflower blue units and wooden worktops. The sitting room is an impressive space, with a fireplace and double aspect, welcoming an abundance of natural light. There is also a beautiful sun room, with its skylight and French doors opening onto the rear patio, a dining room between the kitchen and sitting room with stairs rising to the first floor and an office which was previously where the toll keepers booth was located.
On the first floor there are four generous double bedrooms, all very well presented, and decorated in a neutral colour palette. The master bedroom has an en suite bathroom, the second bedroom has an en suite shower room and there is a family bathroom to serve the other two bedrooms.<br /><br />The property is located just outside the small Cheshire village of Dutton, close to the town of Runcorn. The village is a quiet community, with a local pub, on the edge of the rolling Chester countryside. To the west lies Runcorn, where all of the necessary everyday amenities can be found, including shopping, supermarkets and leisure and cultural facilities. The popular and historic city of Chester is less than 20 miles away, with its famous city centre and excellent shopping. The area is well connected for transport, with the M56 within easy reach and excellent rail services to Birmingham, Liverpool and Manchester from Acton Bridge or Runcorn East.<br /><br />The property is approached via a small lane which runs along the top of the Preston Brook Canal, and sits in a picturesque vantage point directly adjacent to a canal. The house has an attractive whitewashed façade. There is parking space to the front of the property for guests and visitors, while there is a large double garage for resident parking. To the rear and side of the property is a garden with a sunny south-facing aspect, running adjacent to the canal. It has a patio space, which is ideal for enjoying the sunshine, with extensive lawns and lovely views of the canal, making for a truly idyllic setting.
