Description

The Clock House is a substantial and impressive family house which has been carefully maintained by the current owners. It stands in lovely, private gardens and grounds, with a pond as a centre piece and is accessed via two drives, with the long ‘Malpas’ drive bisecting open fields which are available in addition.
The front door opens into a reception hall with ornamental part-stained glassed windows and door, a stone fireplace, part wood panelled walls and original wooden staircase. It serves the main reception rooms, being an elegant drawing room with a substantial bay window and views over the garden, a dining room and study with French doors opening onto the garden. The contemporary Mark Wilkinson family kitchen lies at the heart of the house and has an excellent range of storage units, integrated appliances and an island unit and links to a pantry and utility/boot room. Beyond is a games room/sitting room and a cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation. On the first floor is an impressive principal bedroom with ensuite bathroom, a guest suite, five further bedrooms and a family bathroom. Overall, it is an excellent family house, brimming with charm and character.

The beautiful 18th century Carriage House is Grade II Listed and is currently arranged as garaging, storage, stabling and a gardener’s WC with hobby and office space above. A roof turret sits on top of the structure housing a clock believed to have been manufactured by renowned clock makers JB Joyce. An application to Cheshire West and Chester Council was approved on 8 February 2017 under reference no. 16/02258/FUL and consent exists for the Carriage House's conversion into a four-bedroom dwelling, offering a range of options for the purchaser. Attached at the rear is steel portal structure housing a swimming pool.

The land (available in addition)
Plot 1 at 2.32 acres
Plot 2 at 8.61 acres
The land comprises two fields with a combined area of 10.93 acres with access from the start of the ‘Malpas’ drive. They offer level or gently undulating pasture for the grazing of livestock and are bounded by horse proof fencing. Each enclosure has a water supply and the larger field a recently constructed timber field shelter.
