House For Sale £1,000,000
** Guide £1million - £1.1million** A spacious and high-specification property in an idyllic hamlet setting, with extensive garaging, within approximately 1.57 acres.<br/></br>
<b>Situation</b>
Firs Farm is situated in an idyllic semi-rural setting within the picturesque hamlet of Chorlton, approximately 2.5 miles to the west of Malpas. Malpas offers an excellent range of day-to-day amenities including a general store with bakery, local shops, hairdressers, a coffee shop, a church, restaurants, numerous public houses and a highly regarded doctor’s surgery.
</br>
On the educational front, nearby Shocklach has a good primary school as does Malpas, both feeder schools to Bishop Heber High School, the latter deemed “outstanding” by Ofsted.
</br>
The area is well-placed for commuting to the commercial centres of the Northwest, including Wrexham Industrial Estate and Chester Business Park, as well as Liverpool and Manchester. Both Wrexham and Chester rail stations have direct line services to London, Euston.
</br>
<b>The Property</b>
Firs Farm is a particularly attractive modern property completed circa 2014. The property enjoys traditional Cheshire brick construction combining numerous high technology installations such as a solar hot water system, underfloor heating throughout the ground floor, a Sonos audio system with integrated kef speakers throughout, luxurious bathroom fittings, a high-quality kitchen and an integrated CCTV installation.
The property benefits from the balance of a 10-year Premier warranty and has recently been redecorated by the current vendors.
</br>
The Accommodation
The front door with arched over light opens into a welcoming central reception hall featuring engineered oak flooring which runs throughout much of the property. Off the reception hall is a utility room fitted with a range of hand-painted shaker style cabinets under granite work surfaces, along with plumbing for laundry appliances. There is also a WC along with a bespoke range of fitted cloaks cupboards.
</br>
At the heart of the house, with tremendous easterly views across the gardens, is a family kitchen with dining area. The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of hand-painted shaker style cabinets under granite work surfaces including a central island. Top of the range appliances include twin Miele electric ovens, a De Dietrich induction hob with extractor hood, an integral dishwasher and full height fridge and freezer, a Miele coffee machine and a dual temperature wine cooler. High quality German “Schuco” bifold doors open to the rear patio. The kitchen benefits from a pantry with granite cold shelving and a Miele integrated microwave. Double doors open into a snug, featuring a woodburning stove within a contemporary stone surround. Across the hallway is a spacious sitting room with dual aspects, featuring contemporary hole in the wall gas fire within a marble surround and bifold doors open to the rear terrace.
</br>
A light oak contemporary turned staircase with glass balustrades leads to a spacious landing with access to a linen store and separate store cupboard containing a solar thermal store providing mains pressure hot water. The principal bedroom features bespoke fitted wardrobes with matching bedside cabinets and a Juliet balcony with a glazed balustrade. The current owners utilise the adjoining room as an elaborate dressing room but could be used as a study or nursery. The principal bedroom enjoys a lavishly appointed en suite bathroom, featuring a top of the range contemporary suite by Vileroy & Boch including a freestanding bath, a wash handbasin with vanity cabinet and illuminated mirror, concealed cistern WC with touchless dual flush and a dual access walk-in shower with a Hansgrohe rain shower. There are three further double bedrooms, one benefiting from an equally luxurious en suite shower room and the family bathroom is equally lavish.
</br>
<b>Gardens and Grounds</b>
Firs Farm is approached through an imposing brick splayed entrance with remote gates opening onto a sweeping gravel driveway, providing access to extensive courtyard parking to the rear of the property. The property benefits from an elaborate oak-framed garage building comprising three bays with remote garage doors along with an adjoining gardener’s cloakroom and an additional general storeroom. The garage benefits from lighting, power points, water supply and security alarm system. There are numerous additional timber-build garden stores.
</br>
Adjoining the rear of the property is an extensive natural stone paved terrace from where to enjoy the morning sun and views to the gardens beyond.
</br>
To the rear of the formal gardens is a large, ring-fenced paddock featuring a pretty ornamental pond, thought to be a historic Kettle Pond, planted with a broad range of aquatic plants. The paddock features an array of young specimen trees including oak, fruit trees and an established weeping willow. The grounds extend to approximately 1.57 acres in total.
