4 bed property for sale

Willington Road, Oscroft, Tarvin, Chester CH3

Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman

There are many a book with the title best of both worlds. There are very few residential properties that can deliver such a reality, but this is one that can!

Want to be rural in feel but in close proximity to key centres? Want to own an individual house that is unique yet practical? Want the feeling of acres of space without the need to have onerous maintenance? Want a house that is not new and characterless yet a modern layout ideal for family life? If the answer is yes to all these questions then this super converted Chapel will be a strong contender for you.

Only ten minutes from Tarporley and six miles from Chester, yet rural in atmosphere and setting, this is a great opportunity to acquire an appealing individual home.

The property was a former Methodist Chapel that was converted to a residential unit in 2003 when the Methodist Chapel relocated elsewhere in the locality. Upon inspection potential purchasers will note a fantastic quality of the conversion that has skilfully combined a retention of many period and original features without any compromise to the layout and internal practicalities.

The accommodation opens with a superb entrance hall which is wide, spacious and creates an impressive first impression. From the entrance hall there are doors that lead to a cloakroom and a useful utility room. Thereafter there are three reception rooms in total they being a useful office, sitting room and outstanding living room. The breakfast kitchen is an excellent size providing ample space for table and chairs, it has light from three sides and is a perfect hub for day to day family life. It should be noted that throughout the house the majority of rooms are flooded with natural light with the design of the conversion particularly focused on achieving this aim.

At first floor level the accommodation continues to impress and offers fantastic versatility to a future buyer. There are in total four bedrooms, each with there own individual character, shape and style. Three of the four bedrooms have an en-suite facility whilst there is a separate family bathroom that serves bedroom four.

Externally there is a gravelled driveway providing ample off road parking and turning space for several vehicles and this in turn leads to the generously proportioned double garage. Above the double garage, accessed via timber steps and decking platform is a fantastic studio that runs over the double garage and can be utilised in a number of different ways with the obvious uses including a home office, teenagers den, media room or dependent relative annex.

The gardens of the property are substantially found to the rear and have been extended in size in recent times. The gardens include good levels of seclusion and privacy and enjoy fabulous far reaching views. They are principally laid to lawn.

The Chapel in Oscroft is a rare and welcome addition to the housing market and considerable levels of market attention are anticipated. This is a house that is incredibly surprising, you would never guess 2314 square feet from the front and it offers excellent value for money. Come and see it!
