3 bed bungalow for sale

Oathills Close, Tarporley CW6

Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman

This individual detached architect designed bungalow, constructed circa 1968, represents a rare and exciting opportunity in today’s market. Situated in Oathills Close, a relatively little known cul-de-sac, the property occupies an enviable position that perfectly balances a wonderful rural view to the front with walking distance proximity to Tarporley High Street, accessible in only a few minutes.

Extending to an impressive 1374 square feet, the bungalow offers ample scope to be tailored to individual modern requirements. As is so often the case with a unique, custom designed property, the layout is completely unconventional, purposefully configured from the outset to maximise the exceptional views to the front elevation.

The accommodation begins with an entrance porch that provides access to an integral garage and workshop, a cloakroom, and the main living spaces. The heart of the home is a spacious open-plan living, dining, and family room area, arranged over a split level to create a distinct sense of architectural character. This primary reception space features a triple bank of windows to the front elevation that floods the room with light and frames the landscape perfectly.

From the raised dining area, a door leads directly into the kitchen. In many regards, this fluid, open-plan arrangement was way ahead of its time, mirroring the design principles that remain highly sought after in contemporary homes today. The remainder of the layout offers three bedrooms, all of which are doubles, which are served by a central family bathroom.

Having remained in the ownership of the same family for many years, the property has been a much-loved home and is now ready for its next chapter. It requires a comprehensive scheme of modernisation and enhancement throughout, presenting a blank canvas for a discerning buyer to realise its full potential and create a truly bespoke residence in a rarely available cul de sac location.

There are gardens to three sides and no ongoing chain.

As a small aside, the final two images in the photograph selection are hand drawn sketches from 1968, enhanced with modern day ai to crispen up the detail. They really are a lovely bit of history and have showcase such skill from the original author.

For a personal description of the property or to arrange a viewing, please contact myself or a member of the team at the Tarporley office.

Location

Tarporley is one of Cheshire's most highly regarded villages that boasts a diverse selection of amenities including a community centre, tennis courts, convenience stores, fashion boutiques, cafes, restaurants, public houses, doctors' surgery, dentists, three Churches and a very extensive bus route. There is also a golf course and private gymnasium / swimming pool on the edge of the village and state of the art gym and fitness centre with car park along the main High Street, known as ‘Instinct 78’.

In terms of education, there is a very popular Primary School in the centre of the village that has in recent times been extended and heavily invested into. This in turn feeds into Tarporley High School. For those seeking Schools in the independent sector, The Grange in Hartford is a little under 20 minutes away and there is also Kings, Queens, and Abbeygate in Chester.

The area as a whole has access to glorious countryside and places of significant interest that include ancient castles, boating facilities on nearby canals and the outstanding Sandstone Ridges of Cheshire. Wonderful walks are provided via the Whitegate Way and Sandstone Trail. Without leaving the village, there is walking distance access to beautiful countryside.

Whilst the area is renowned for its outstanding natural beauty, the house also offers an excellent base for the business traveller. In terms of road links, there are extensive connections to the M56, M6 and M53. The A49, A51 and A55 all link to key areas of commerce and interest.

With regards to railway services, there are stations at nearby Hartford, Cuddington, Delamere, Frodsham, and Chester. All operate on either the Chester to Manchester or Liverpool to London lines. Fast connections can be enjoyed at Crewe railway station, with the service to London Euston taking just over 90 minutes.
