Barnhill Grange, Old Coach Road, Barnhill, Chester CH3

Set in a glorious position with fine rural views, forming part of a select development and offering fabulous accommodation of quality and character, a one off barn conversion of great distinction.

Comment From Robert Reed Of Gascoigne Halman

Are you looking for a home with character, features, quality and a layout that is highly flexible? Are you seeking a property which offers ample space in a stunning setting but is relatively straight forward to maintain? Do you delight in rural life and enjoy country walks without the need to get in a car? If the answers to all these questions are yes, this is a home that is going to be of considerable appeal. It is set in a select enclave of just a few individual homes and the present owners have certainly love it, having owned it or twenty one years.

In terms of setting, the approach is excellent, having a driveway that leads to a large turning circle and beautifully maintained shared grounds that have mature trees, well stocked beds and as a whole, are kept in impeccable order. This area is in addition to the private garden that the subject property enjoys. There is also off road parking and a garage.
The barn is fully deserving of its Grade II Listed status but this belies what is actually a very contemporary and cutting edge layout and configuration, perfectly blending the traditional with the more modern. In many ways stepping over the threshold is a real wow moment as the accommodation opens out into a much larger footprint than might initially seem likely from looking at the external elevation.

One thing I have noted in my career is the increasing desire for an open plan kitchen dining and living room. This barn delivers such a concept in spectacular style, with a super flow and a fabulous vaulted ceiling that really maximises the visual impact of the space. It is a wonderful setting for entertaining, parties and just ultra comfortable day to day life.

Location

Barnhill, Broxton, Harthill, Bickerton, Bulkeley, Brown Knowl and the nearby hamlets of Ridley, Beeston and Peckforton are renowned for their natural beauty and proximity to surrounding countryside.

The area as a whole is ideal for those who enjoy rural living with walks in Bulkeley Hill Wood, Bickerton Hills and the Sandstone Trail all readily accessible. The National Trust have recently taken over the management and ownership of many of these walkways thereby providing future protection as to the use of the land. There is a great selection of nearby pubs and restaurants, The Bickerton Poacher which has always been popular with locals is just a short distance away and the recently reopened Sandstone is also proving a hit. The Cholmondeley Arms, Egerton Arms, The Pheasant Inn at Burwardsley and The Dysart Arms are also all within a short drive.

Harthill not only benefits from being a peaceful rural area but also has the historic and much loved city of Chester less than fourteen miles away, providing one of the North West's leading retail and commercial centres and all the amenities a city has to offer. Also just a fifteen minutes away is the popular village of Tarporley which boasts a diverse selection of amenities including a great selection of cafes, restaurants and public houses, three active churches, a community centre, tennis court and a wonderful collection of locally owned stores and fashion boutiques.
