The Woodlands, Welsh Road, Childer Thornton

Listed 11 Sept 2026 · Ellesmere Port
White House, Chester Road, Childer Thornton
A gated home on around half an acre, with exceptional interconnected living space across the rear, four/five double bedrooms and genuine annexe potential. Add a home gym, a wine room, extensive gated parking and Hooton station half a mile away, and White House offers something very few homes on the market can.
Behind electric gates and a private driveway, the house sits on one of Childer Thornton’s most established roads. A generous reception hall with a turned staircase sets the tone, but it is the rear of the home that sets White House apart. A run of bright, glazed rooms opens straight onto the garden, connecting a living room of close to ten metres, centred on a two-metre fireplace, through an elegant orangery and into the kitchen. It is one large, sociable space made for family life and entertaining, with doors opening directly onto the lawn.
The kitchen sits at the centre of it all, with a central island, twin ovens and integrated appliances. Just off the main living space is a rare wine room, while a separate lounge with a feature fireplace provides a quieter retreat.
The flexibility of the accommodation is another major strength. A large adaptable room works as a home office, playroom or games room, there is a dedicated gym, and this part of the house lends itself to conversion into a self-contained annexe, ideal for multi-generational living or guests who prefer their own space.
Upstairs are four double bedrooms. The principal suite has a walk-in wardrobe and an en suite with twin basins, a bath and a separate shower, with three further double bedrooms served by a smart family bathroom. There is also scope to extend into the attic, subject to the usual consents.
Outside, the half acre is mostly laid to lawn and framed by mature trees and established planting, giving real privacy. A terrace, further seating areas and a gazebo make the most of the garden through the summer, while the gated frontage offers extensive parking, turning space and an EV charging point.
For buyers seeking scale, privacy and flexibility in an exceptionally well-connected location, White House represents a rare opportunity.
