Located in a tranquil location, having a delightful south facing courtyard garden and offering excellent room sizes and value for money, a lovely individual home in an appealing village location
Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman
Great Barrow and a great buying opportunity! Priced at a very competitive level, this is an excellent home in so many different regards.
This really appealing home is in the corner of a tranquil courtyard that accordingly is a cul de sac so has no passing traffic. It is a property of relatively modern construction yet has lovely brickwork and a sense of distinctive character. It also has the benefit of UPVC double glazing and central heating.
The ground floor is particularly strong with an excellent open plan breakfast kitchen, a large living room, compact study and useful utility room. The first floor has two double bedrooms and a terrific family bathroom which is large and has been refurbished.
For those who don¿t want an onerous maintenance responsibility the south facing courtyard rear garden is both easy to look after and private whilst there is also off road parking and double width courtyard.
For a personal description of the property or to arrange a viewing, please contact myself or a member of the team at the Tarporley office.
