5 bed detached house for sale

Sandfield Lane, Acton Bridge, Northwich CW8

Set in five and a half acres, offering spectacular views and having the incredibly rare distinction of grade A energy efficiency, a superb five bedroom two storey detached house in a stunning setting.

Comment From Robert Reed Of Gascoigne Halman

This is a unique home and a one off lifestyle opportunity. It is also a property that surprises and delights in equal measure. The first of which is the name. The property is called West View but the house and main garden actually enjoy a southerly aspect! The reference to view is though certainly accurate with a superb open and fear reaching aspect along the valley of Acton Brook.

Located on a mature, quiet and leafy country lane, this unique and immaculately maintained detached house in Acton Bridge, initially presents itself as an attractive but modest bungalow. However, a journey through the gate and into the house reveals a substantial and extended two-story residence that extends to an impressive 2490 square feet. It has the incredibly rare accolade of a Grade A rated EPC, making it one of the few in the UK to enjoy such a status.

The ground floor offers a large living room, currently incorporating a study area, alongside a utility room, cloakroom, and the kitchen. Thereafter the accommodation branches out into three double bedrooms, including the principal one with extensive fitted furniture, all served by a family bathroom.

The lower ground floor holds a delightful surprise: A versatile and spacious games room of substantial proportion. On my initial meeting with the clients, I had to stop myself from settling into three hours of playing pool!
