Beechwood Cottage, Dutton Lane, Norley, CW8 2TN

Welcome

Prepare to be wowed by Beechwood Cottage, an impressive family home. This home is very special, from the carefully curated interior to the magnificent gardens.

Parts of the property are thought to be over 200 years old, but over generations and iterations, this property has grown into an impressive home, which has managed to blend seamlessly the old with the new, retaining the character and charm of the original cottage that it once was.

Serious Wow Factor

Truly the heart of the home, where family gather at the end of a busy day to reconnect and spend quality time together. Herringbone flooring draws you further into the room, which is gently warmed underfoot, with zoned areas so that you can stay cool in the kitchen and cosy in the snug at the same time.

Bespoke, handmade wooden kitchen units in a sophisticated soft grey are topped by white quartz and finished with elegant handles. Social seating around the island allows for a chat over a well-deserved glass of wine as dinner is prepared. Integrated appliances include a fridge and dishwasher, a Quooker instant hot water tap and a trio of ovens to roast, steam or reheat everything you need. There is even a plate warmer! And a larder cupboard, complete with electric sockets and lighting, ensures that you can keep everything neatly and tidily hidden away. Prepare your entire repertoire of meals easily, whether gourmet dinners for glamorous parties or mid-week meals for the children in this exquisitely finished kitchen.

The rest of this wonderful space allows for dining and relaxing on the comfortable sofas. Roof lights flood the space with natural light, and sliding doors open on both sides to the patio areas and gardens beyond, making the outside space a usable extension to the home, bringing the outside in.

"The patio is the perfect spot to enjoy a peaceful morning coffee or BBQ with family and friends."

The utility room has space for a large fridge, freezer and a selection of units for storage. There is a Belfast sink and a stable door that opens up to the rear of the property, perfect for coming in after a long walk with the dogs or when the children have got muddy in the garden.

Lovely Living Spaces

There are two additional reception rooms which allow flexible living space, whether you want a formal dining room, a grown-up living room or a children's playroom.

A Touch Of Luxury

The master suite provides solace, your own retreat from the beautiful chaos of a family home. Close the door and bask in the peace and tranquility of your private master bedroom, with a separate dressing room and en suite.

"It feels like you are staying in a hotel when you close the door, a moment of solace to rejuvenate after a busy day."

The en suite is impeccably well designed with Jack & Jill sink units, a walk-in drench shower with brass fittings, and an inset shelf for your lotions and potions. The dressing room has built-in wardrobes to store all of your clothing.

"There is nothing better than opening the curtains early in the morning, getting back into bed with a cup of tea, and looking out at the view."

In addition to the master suite, there are three further double bedrooms, enough space for all the family.

Beautiful Bathrooms

If you want a long relaxing bubble bath to soak away your stresses, the family bathroom is the right place. With a shower over for convenience and top-quality fixtures and fittings, this bathroom is a lovely retreat.

Spend Time In Nature

The approach to the property is a quiet lane leading through gates onto a paved driveway. Park up in front of the double garage; there is plenty of room for numerous cars. The garage is spacious, with room for tools, gym equipment and your ride-on lawn mower, and additional storage in the loft space.

The gardens at Beechwood Cottage are fantastic. Expansive lawns that measure over an acre with trees and hedges and even a Wendy house for the children to play. Vibrant flowers fill the air with fragrance and the view with pops of colour. There is space to grow your own, with many fruit trees to make pies, crumbles, jams or even damson gin!

"We have had so many garden parties, and the children love exploring and playing hide and seek; it is great fun!"

The paddock beyond the gardens is included in the sale, and the land in total measures around 2.7 acres. The gardens are incredibly private, with no neighbours nearby and nobody overlooking you.

"At easter, the children roll their decorated eggs down the gentle slope of the top of the garden, and the easter egg hunt is always a huge hit."

Out and about

The village store and local pub are less than a mile away, perfect for all your daily essentials or a lovely pub lunch in the local where there is a strong community spirit and friendly patrons. Further afield, major shops and supermarkets can be found in nearby Cuddington or Frodsham, where you can also access mainline trains to all major towns and cities, including London Euston, which takes just 2 hours. Manchester airport is only 25 minutes away for family holidays or business travel.

The local primary school in Norley is highly rated, and there are other options in Weaverham or Delamere. The Grange in Hartford offers excellent private schooling from kindergarten right up to sixth form. Many options are available, so you can be sure to find a school that suits your children no matter their age.
