Property Description
Balderton House is Grade II listed and was built in the mid 19th century by the renowned architect John Douglas as a cheese factory for the Duke of Westminster. Today the property offers excellent family accommodation with well proportioned rooms set over two floors.
The spacious reception hallway rises to the full interior height of the house and gives to the main reception rooms of the property. The well appointed rooms include the sitting room with French doors to the walled south facing rear garden, the double aspect drawing room with twin French windows opening on to the side garden, the dining room and the study from which a staircase ascends to bedroom three. Off the hallway is also a guest cloakroom.
The kitchen/breakfast room is fully fitted and has French doors leading to the terrace. A door opens into the rear hall leading to a spacious utility room with a staircase rising to bedroom six and door leading into the triple garage. This mezzanine area is currently used as a home gym, and could potentially be converted to self contained accommodation, with its own entrance and running water, subject to the necessary planning consents.
Off the first floor galleried landing are five double bedrooms, two with en suite facilities. In addition there is a large family bathroom.
The property is situated in the small village of Balderton just 4 miles south of Chester which offers a comprehensive range of educational, shopping and transport facilities. Day to day amenities are available in the neighbouring villages of Dodleston and Higher Kinnerton and there is also an excellent retail park in Broughton.
The A55 provides a link to the North Wales coast, whilst the motorway network at Chester ensures that the property is well placed for commuting to the commercial centres of the North West, and Chester Station offers a direct line service to London Euston, within 2 hours.
There are notable independent day schools within easy reach, including The King's School and The Queen's School, as well as a good local choice of primary and secondary state schools.
The property is approached via a sweeping gravelled driveway which leads to a turning circle at the front of the property. The property sits well within its grounds which are mostly walled offering a good degree of privacy and security. At the rear it offers a private, sunny garden with fruit trees and a delightful terrace area. The cellar is also accessed from the rear garden. The triple garage and detached timber workshop are located to the rear of the property.
