Detached house for sale in Bulkeley, Malpas SY14

Offered with no chain, enjoying rural views, set in a plot of 0.34 acre and with a south facing rear garden, a distinctive and spacious individual residence, offering extensive potential to modernise

Comment From Robert Reed Of Gascoigne Halman

Pomme Dor is one of the more unusually named properties you will find, translating to the French Golden Apple. And the highly unusual name is matched by a distinctive and very appealing property, offered for sale with no ongoing chain. Amazingly this house has never been offered for sale before, with the original owners custom building it for themselves in the 1960¿s and enjoying it as an excellent family home since. It is now offered for sale with no chain.

Aesthetically it is also very interesting. From the front it looks like a detached bungalow and from the back a two storey detached house! As will become readily apparent, there is an excellent amount of very flexible space on offer here, with the square footage extending to a little over 2627 square feet. This blends well with a south facing plot of 0.34 acre that enjoys a south facing garden.

As presently arranged there are four bedrooms, three bathrooms and three reception rooms. This though is a property not about what it is now but rather more what it will become. The price, which is very competitive, deliberately reflects the fact that modernisation is required throughout. As part of a future programme of works the layout might also change, to suit the needs of the new owner. The possibilities are extensive and it will be a hugely exciting property to be customised, adapted and enhanced.

The area as a whole is renowned for excellent walking routes, with the Bulkeley and Bickerton Hills and Sandstone Trail all at hand. Nearby villages include Bunbury, Tarporley, Tattenhall and Malpas whilst those who want larger towns or a city can get to Whitchurch, Nantwich and Chester within reasonable travelling times.

Location

Bulkeley and the nearby villages of Bickerton and Peckforton are renowned for their natural beauty and proximity to surrounding countryside. The villages of Malpas and Tarporley and the towns of Nantwich and Whitchurch are all within comfortable travelling distance and offer a wide range of shopping and recreational facilities. Bunbury village is also close by and has its own primary school and a good array of day to day convenience shops. The extensive amenities of Chester City Centre can be accessed within less than thirty minutes drive.

For those with educational requirements the majority of houses in the area stand within the catchment area for the highly regarded Bickerton Primary School and the Bishop Heber High School in Malpas rated Outstanding by Ofsted in its last inspection.

Bulkeley also provides a convenient and central base for the business traveller, in addition to the extensive road links leading to the M56, M6, A49 and A51 there are also railway stations at Crewe, Chester and Whitchurch. Manchester and Liverpool International Airports can both be accessed within 45 minutes to one hour's drive.

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.

In terms of Pubs and Restaurants, the Bickerton Poacher, Cholmondeley Arms, Dysart Arms and Yew Tree Inn are all within a short distance whilst those who enjoy a bracing walk can even venture to the Pheasant Inn in Burwardsley, an outstanding Pub/Restaurant that enjoys truly magnificent and far reaching elevated views.
