Comment From Robert Reed Of Gascoigne Halman
The great thing about marketing individual property is that no two scripts you write are ever the same! And when it comes to something completely different, there is no better property to view than this really super individual residence.
The key point to note is that the location of this home is really excellent. Eaton is a much admired village, two miles from Tarporley village centre and boasts a lovely array of diverse housing, all in the context of beautiful countryside surrounding. This particular property is an elevated position enjoying spectacular views and has a plot that extends to 0.36 acre in total and is deservedly in the conservation area.
The gardens are a real feature here having been lovingly landscaped, developed, planned and cared for over many years and in the Spring and Summer providing an abundance of colour and maturity. With the plot wrapping around the dwelling, there are plenty of different areas to sit and enjoy food and drink whilst taking advantage of the moving sun.
The property itself is substantially single storey, comprising a detached bungalow, though there is one upstairs element, that being a fabulous versatile studio decked out in the style of a Scandinavian lodge and also having its own roof terrace.
