Set on the elevated edge of Ellesmere with views toward The Mere, this extended three-bedroom detached house offers expansive, family-focused accommodation of around 3,376 sq ft. The recent modernisation creates a clean, contemporary kitchen/dining/living heart with integrated appliances, a multi-fuel burner and flexible reception rooms that suit everyday family life and entertaining. The large plot of just under one acre provides private lawns, a wildlife pond, orchard area and multiple secluded seating areas.
Practical features include a newly constructed detached double garage with electric door, EV charger, external store and generous driveway parking. Ground-floor accommodation includes a useful office (convertible to a fourth/guest bedroom), utility with canine-washing station, cloakroom and modern shower room. Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms with elevated views, walk-in wardrobe space and a modern family shower room plus separate cloakroom.
Notable constraints are oil-fired central heating (not mains gas), slow broadband speeds and cavity walls that are assumed to have no insulation, which may affect running costs and comfort. The property dates from the 1930s–1940s era so buyers should note its period construction alongside modern upgrades. Council Tax banding is high (band G), and ongoing maintenance of nearly an acre of established gardens should be factored in.
This home will suit families seeking a substantial, characterful country residence within walking distance of local schools, shops and medical facilities, and those who value privacy, outdoor space and lakeside views. It also offers scope for further adaptation if desired, while presenting turnkey modern living in a prized lakeside village position.
