An Extended 1930s Detached Home with Beautiful Period Detail

Listed 8 May 2026 · price reduced 9 Oct 2026 · Northwich
This classic 1930s detached family home occupies a substantial plot on one of Hartford’s most sought-after roads, offering a rare opportunity to acquire a property of genuine period character and impressive proportions.
The welcoming ground floor layout begins with a spacious porch and entrance hall, leading to a series of versatile reception rooms including a bright living room, an elegant sitting room, and a formal dining room, all retaining charming original features such as decorative cornicing and large windows.
The kitchen presents ample scope for modernisation and extension (subject to planning), while a practical hall, WC, store, and integral garage provide valuable every-day convenience.
Upstairs, the generous landing leads to four comfortable bedrooms, two of which benefit from en-suite shower rooms, alongside a separate family bathroom, ensuring flexible accommodation for growing families or visiting guests.
The house has been lovingly maintained over the years, with a clear sense of pride in its upkeep, yet now presents an exciting blank canvas for those seeking to update and personalise the interiors to contemporary tastes.
Notably, the property’s beautiful mature gardens, currently awash with vibrant colours and seasonal blooms, create a truly stunning backdrop visible from many rooms, with the rear aspect enjoying a high degree of privacy thanks to the unmaintained land beyond
The extensive off-road parking and integral garage further enhance the home’s practical appeal. Importantly, the size of the plot allows for significant extension or reconfiguration (subject to the necessary consents) without compromising the integrity or enjoyment of the rear garden.
Buyers should note that a neighbouring parcel of land near the boundary is currently under consultation for potential development, with no formal plans submitted at this stage (please enquire for further details).
This is a rare chance to secure a substantial and highly adaptable family residence in a prime location, brimming with character and surrounded by stunning gardens, offering huge potential for improvement and future growth. Early viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the scale, charm, and unique possibilities this exceptional home presents.
