South View is a rare opportunity to acquire a detached home set within just under an acre of grounds on Capenhurst Lane, backing directly onto open farmland. The property enjoys a semi rural position while remaining highly convenient, located just off Parkgate Road with excellent access to the M56 motorway network and approximately 15 minutes from Chester, making it ideal for commuting to North Wales, the Wirral and beyond. The house sits within established and mature gardens with extensive land to the front and side, offering significant scope for landscaping and improvement. While parts of the grounds are currently overgrown, they provide a superb blank canvas with the potential to create something truly special. To the rear the property enjoys open views across farmland, along with additional features including a triple garage, greenhouse and further outbuildings. Internally the accommodation offers generous proportions and great flexibility. The property is currently arranged as a two to three bedroom home, but with substantial square footage and a unique layout there is clear potential to reconfigure and enhance the accommodation to suit modern family living. The entrance porch opens into an impressive reception hallway with original timber parquet flooring and a striking open log burning fireplace. From here there is access to a versatile ground floor room which could serve as a bedroom, snug or additional reception room, featuring original timber flooring and a brick arched open fireplace. A standout feature of the house is the sense of space created by the galleried layout, with the landing and hallway areas offering scope for reconfiguration to increase bedroom numbers if desired. The main living room is a well proportioned front to back space with timber flooring, an open fireplace set on a slate hearth and double glazed patio doors opening onto the side garden. The layout continues with a dining reception hall, inner hallway with storage cupboards, a ground floor bathroom fitted with a white suite and a rear conservatory style space overlooking the garden and open fields beyond. The kitchen is a good size with two large windows enjoying views over the rear garden, and it leads through to a utility room with direct access to the garage. To the first floor, a timber staircase rises to a spacious galleried landing set within the eaves. The principal bedroom is exceptionally large and offers excellent potential for further division or enhancement. There is a second double bedroom and a generous bathroom fitted with a coloured suite completing the first floor accommodation. South View is very much a property defined by its setting, land and potential. It offers an exciting development or renovation opportunity in a sought after location, ideal for buyers looking to create a bespoke home in a semi rural yet accessible position.
