Description

Nestled on just under an acre of land, this detached residence on Capenhurst Lane offers a unique investment opportunity with considerable renovation possibilities. While providing a serene semi-rural feel, the property benefits from excellent transport links to Chester, North Wales, and the Wirral via the nearby M56 motorway. The extensive grounds feature mature gardens that would require some landscaping work to realize their full potential, creating an ideal space for outdoor enhancements. Currently overgrown in sections, these areas present a chance for creative landscaping to transform them into beautifully designed outdoor living spaces. Inside, the home displays generous room sizes and a flexible layout that can cater to modern family needs. Originally arranged as a two to three bedroom property, there is ample space to reconfigure and expand accommodation options according to personal preference. The entrance leads into an expansive hallway adorned with original timber parquet flooring and a cozy log-burning fireplace, setting a welcoming tone right from the start. The versatile ground floor includes rooms that could function in various capacities—whether as additional bedrooms or reception areas—combining classic charm with the potential for contemporary updates. Noteworthy features include a spacious main living area at the front of the house with charming fireplace details and access to the side garden through double-glazed patio doors. A well-sized kitchen overlooks the rear garden and connects seamlessly to a utility room with direct access to a convenient triple garage. Ascending to the first floor reveals a vast landing situated within the eaves of the roof where opportunities for further customization abound. The principal bedroom is impressively spacious with possibilities for subdivision or enhancement, while another double bedroom and a generously sized bathroom round out this level's offerings. Overall, this property stands out through its expansive grounds and significant renovation potential—a perfect canvas for those seeking an ideal location paired with ample opportunities for personalization.
