This substantial four-bedroom detached house occupies a larger-than-average plot backing onto the golf course, offering space and privacy in a peaceful hamlet setting. Built in the early 20th century, the home retains period character and generous room sizes but requires comprehensive updating throughout — ideal for a family seeking to create a long-term home or a buyer with renovation experience.
Internally the property provides two bathrooms, roughly 2,206 sq ft of accommodation across multiple storeys, and practical features such as a garage, driveway parking and mains gas central heating. Practical advantages include excellent mobile signal, low local crime and quick A55 access that connects to Chester, North Wales and major regional centres.
Key drawbacks are clear and significant: the house needs renovation, including modernising the dated mid-century kitchen and general exterior upkeep. Broadband speeds are very slow, which may affect home working, and the sale is by auction under a reservation-fee framework — buyers must allow a 56-day completion window and budget for a non-refundable reservation fee on exchange.
This property will suit families who value space, character and proximity to good schools, or experienced renovators wanting a viable project in a very affluent rural neighbourhood. Viewings are recommended for applicants ready to undertake full refurbishment and complete their own due diligence before bidding.
