We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
When it comes to location, it will be a hard push to find better!
Positioned in the centre of Chester’s most sought-after village of Christleton, this fantastic detached home boasts the perfect blend of location and property.
Tucked away at the end of the pretty Quarry Lane, its quiet position is perfect, yet combine this with the open canal aspect to the rear and you really are in your own little oasis.
Offering the best of both worlds, you have the peace and quiet of its truly tranquil setting, yet within a short stroll, you have all that Christleton has to offer, with its shops, café, local pub and outstanding schools.
The property has been beautifully improved by our clients with a keen eye for detail and quality, the rear extension particularly, which has allowed for the desirable open plan living, whilst still retaining two separate reception rooms.
Our clients have maximised the space available to deliver a family home with all you could need, well-proportioned rooms and plenty of them, all blended perfectly with attractive fittings and décor.
You can simply move in and put your feet up. Upon entering, you are greeted with a bright and spacious hall, emphasised with the open plan aspect to the rear living space.
Doors lead to the downstairs WC and two reception rooms, both offering fantastic versatility for use however suits. Holding the heart of the home is the open plan kitchen/dining/living room.
Not only a fantastic size thanks to the full width extension across the rear, but perfectly designed to offer flexibility within the space for all living and dining needs.
Flooded with natural light from the many windows, there is also a large inset ceiling lantern within the roof and bi-fold doors to the garden, which have been fitted with integral blinds for added privacy, beautifully framing the aspect whilst also offering the convenience of indoor to outdoor living.
The kitchen has been well fitted to provide ample storage and granite work surface, inclusive of two large pull out larder storage units and the seamless finish of integral appliances including two side by side fan ovens and a dish washer.
A large utility room leads conveniently off, providing further storage and space for white goods.
To the first floor, there is a light and airy landing with doors leading to the four bedrooms and office, perfect for those working from home.
The principal bedroom is well proportioned, featuring built in wardrobes and enjoys a fantastic size en suite with a walk in shower, bath, wc and wash basin!
The family bathroom offers a bath, wc and wash basin, all complemented perfectly with attractive tiling. Externally the property boasts an unrivalled position.
Set back from the road there is a large gravel driveway, which can fit four to five cars and a green and leafy outlook to the front. And to the rear is the real show-stopper!
Not only does it boast arguably the best canal aspect in the village, but its clever landscaping has allowed for no compromise on privacy where needed.
Laid mainly to lawn, there are also beautifully stocked borders and a raised Indian stone patio area, just perfect for those summer evenings.
Storage is a must and covered well here with use of a large brick built outbuilding and the garden shed, both of which comes complete with power and lighting. What a property and what a location!

We have happily lived in this lovely home for over 20 years, raising three children who benefited from the excellent local schools.
Christleton is a unique and friendly village just three miles from Chester, with a Park & Ride 10 minutes away and a bus stop a short walk from the house.
There is a real community spirit, and we’ve been fortunate to have wonderful neighbours, especially along Quarry Lane.
The canal bank is always lively with walkers, joggers, fishermen and children heading to school.
We regularly enjoy the two local pubs, The Ring O’ Bells and The Cheshire Cat, both serving great food, while two coffee shops and a handy convenience store are also nearby.
The house is not overlooked front or back and has a south-facing rear garden, private patio and large gravel drive.
The rear views are beautiful, especially watching canal boats turn, and it’s a peaceful outlook you never tire of looking at, it is a unique and idyllic spot! WANT TO MOVE BUT NEED TO SELL?
