Description

This four-bedroom detached Grade II listed house sits at the foot of the Peckforton Hills, with open views across the Cheshire countryside. The accommodation is arranged over two floors and is approached through a private entrance, with parking and a detached garage. The ground floor includes a sitting room with a log-burning stove and French doors to a walled patio, plus a separate dining room with built-in cupboards and a second stove. There is also a shower room, rear hall and kitchen. Upstairs are four bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with an en suite shower room, and a family bathroom. The grounds wrap around the house and include lawn, mature shrubs, established hedgerows and a summer house. Additional buildings comprise a substantial detached garage, boiler room and a two-storey studio, offering storage and flexible ancillary space, subject to any necessary consents. Tattenhall is around three miles away and Malpas around seven miles, with Chester approximately 11 miles to the east. The area has access to the Sandstone Trail and nearby country lanes, while the A55, M53 and M56 provide road connections across the North West. The listed status and any proposed changes to the house or outbuildings should be considered when assessing refurbishment options.

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

47out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

Lower Hill House has plenty to work with beyond the house itself: a Grade II listed country setting with far-reaching views, spacious bright living areas, a walled patio and a range of outbuildings, including a two-storey studio. The interiors appear clean and usable, so this is a light refresh rather than a major renovation; dated finishes and some worn flooring offer scope to update the feel while retaining the existing functional kitchen.

The overall opportunity is limited by the numbers: at £825,000, the asking price is above the local £/sqf average, and purchase plus works costs look tight against local benchmarks. The setting, accommodation and ancillary buildings may still appeal to a project buyer, but the asking price leaves little obvious value cushion.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh dated bathroom finishes, flooring and décor to give the clean, usable interiors a more cohesive feel.
  • Make the most of the bright, spacious living areas, log-burning stoves and walled patio.
  • Assess the two-storey studio and other outbuildings for practical use, subject to condition, lawful use and any necessary consents.
