About this home

A superbly renovated and extended four-bedroom detached residence occupying a substantial south-facing corner plot, with exceptional open-plan living accommodation and a double garage, ideally positioned between Neston and Parkgate.

Property Description - An exceptional detached family residence, occupying a generous and private corner plot in one of Neston’s most desirable residential settings, conveniently positioned between the market town of Neston and the picturesque coastal village of Parkgate.

The property has been extensively renovated, remodelled and extended by the current owners to create an impressive contemporary home where generous proportions, natural light and an exceptional standard of finish combine beautifully. The result is a house ideally suited to modern family life, with wonderful spaces for both everyday living and entertaining.

At the heart of the home is the superb open-plan kitchen, dining and living space. A striking vaulted ceiling and rooflights create a wonderful sense of height and light, while expansive sliding doors open directly onto the garden and patio, allowing the inside and outside spaces to flow seamlessly together during the warmer months. The kitchen itself is beautifully appointed with an extensive range of solid wood cabinetry, quartz work surfaces, a substantial central island, integrated appliances and a Rangemaster cooker. A separate sitting area provides a more relaxed space away from the main living accommodation.

The ground floor is approached through a welcoming entrance hallway with cloakroom/WC and useful storage. An inner hallway provides access to a utility room, home office, substantial additional storage and the integral double garage. This part of the house offers considerable flexibility for the future and, subject to any necessary consents, could lend itself particularly well to the creation of further living accommodation, a ground-floor bedroom suite or perhaps an annexe-style arrangement.

Upstairs, there is a spacious landing with feature full height window and there are four well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and a recently installed en-suite shower room, while a second bedroom also features fitted storage. The remaining bedrooms are served by a stylish family bathroom.

The setting is equally impressive. The house stands within a sizeable south-facing corner plot, offering an excellent degree of privacy and providing plenty of space for entertaining and outdoor living. The landscaped gardens incorporate generous lawns, established and newly planted hedging and paved terraces, together with external lighting and power. To the front, a large driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to the double garage.

The location offers an enviable balance between town, coast and countryside. Neston’s shops, cafés and amenities are within easy reach, while nearby Parkgate offers its renowned promenade, restaurants and views across the Dee Estuary. The Wirral Way and surrounding countryside provide miles of walking and cycling routes, making this an excellent proposition for buyers seeking a family home with space and privacy without sacrificing convenience.

A beautifully considered and comprehensively improved home, offering an increasingly rare combination of generous accommodation, a substantial private plot and an excellent location close to both Neston and Parkgate. Early viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate the quality and scale of the property on offer.
