2 Gorse Close “We fell in love with the space, the light, and the views — and it’s been the heart of our family life for 30 years!” Welcome to No. 2, Gorse Close, an ordered picture of calm village life offering a window onto rolling countryside and woodland that feels almost straight from a storybook. Best of all worlds A sublime setting among friendly, long-established neighbours, with forest walks at your fingertips and an excellent village school just a few minutes’ walk away, No. 2, Gorse Close is a home with true staying power. Parking for three to four cars is available on the paved driveway, along with a double garage with electric doors and EVC point. Step inside, where light streams through the leaded glass of the front door and onto the honeyed engineered oak flooring of the entrance hall, where a handy cloakroom and WC are available. Solid oak doors and a soothing, neutral palette create a calming feel that continues throughout the home. Practically positioned at the front of the home, the study is a perfect place to work, read or relax, with a view to the Close to watch for important deliveries. Rooms with a view Savour the incredible, elevated views out over the garden and countryside from the formal dining room next door, where the home transitions from distinguished development to real rural living. A home with effortless flow, the welcoming lounge, with its vaulted ceiling and newly installed log-burner, opens up from the dining room. Light streams in through windows to the front, while to the rear, French doors open invitingly to the garden, where the mature planting provides year-round colour and interest. OWNER QUOTE: “The lounge is a warm and cozy space to relax and unwind, and we light the log burners frequently. There is more than enough wood from our woodland to keep us going for years.” Feast your eyes With plenty of space for all the family, the Shaker-style in frame kitchen has been recently repainted in Farrow and Ball colours. The Bertazzoni Range cooker, with its five-ring gas hob and twin ovens faces the garden creating a sociable space while cooking. Alongside the built-in dishwasher, fridge and steaming hot tap, the open plan dining area offers the perfect setting for relaxed family meals or lively dinner parties. Before or after mealtimes, flow on from the dining kitchen into the garden room, and feast your eyes on the simply breathtaking views. Forming part of a thoughtful extension, the fully insulated garden room features underfloor heating and fully tiled roof alongside a modern log burner for toasty warmth whatever the season. Soothing spaces Designed as a calm, screen-free retreat, this is a versatile space that has variously served as a music room and a quiet reading spot. Panoramic glazing, with French doors opening out, draws in those incredible elevated views, capturing blush-gold sunsets spilling across the west-facing windows to early-morning mist rising over the Cheshire plains. OWNER QUOTE: “When the mist rolls in, it’s absolutely breathtaking and every sunset feels different. Watching the landscape change through the seasons has been one of our greatest joys.” Back in the kitchen, discover the spacious utility room, where a Belfast sink, freezer, microwave and plumbing for a washing machine awaits, alongside access to the garden and garage. Bedtime beckons Upstairs, sanctuary beckons in the principal bedroom, a light-filled retreat with windows framing leafy views to the front and side. The dormer window amplifies the spaciousness, while a magnificent maple tree provides natural privacy to the front. In the en-suite, spa-like calm continues, with gleaming mosaic tiles adding a subtle touch of luxury. Along the landing, the family bathroom features a distinctive Villeroy & Boch hexagonal bath and separate shower, together with underfloor heating, perfect for a long, relaxing unwind at the end of the day. Next door, a second double bedroom draws in stunning elevated views over the rolling countryside. To the right of the stairs, two further bedrooms, one overlooking the garden and fields to the rear, and another peacefully positioned to the front, are bright, comfortable spaces ideal for family or guests. OWNER QUOTE: “On Bonfire Night and New Year’s Eve, the whole horizon lights up and you can see fireworks bursting right across Cheshire. It’s absolutely spectacular.” A garden for all seasons

At the front, a neat lawn and mature maple tree set a peaceful, residential tone, but step out to the rear and the scene transforms. Gently sloping down from the home, the captivating garden unfolds in layers of beautifully planted borders and winding pathways, with lawns offering evergreen hues all fringed in colour and texture. Keen gardeners, the owners have landscaped and nurtured the garden over the years, extending the beds, planting trees for all-season colour and adding a Victorian style greenhouse and vegetable plot for home-grown produce. Beyond the lower lawn, half an acre of private land leads into a semi-wild woodland; a magical retreat for children, with a tree swing, fruit trees and even a fairy garden. Thousands of snowdrops, tulips, and bluebells burst into life in spring, followed by rhododendrons, roses and peonies through summer, chased up by fiery acers in autumn. A garden that changes with the light and the seasons, where kestrels and buzzards hover at eye level from the garden room, this is family living for all generations, from gathering apples for Christmas crumbles to sipping sundowners as the Cheshire plains are bathed in gold at the end of the day. OWNER QUOTE: “The garden is our happy place; we spend a lot of time here.” Out and about
