About
Some homes have been renovated. Others have been completely reimagined – and Craigower certainly falls into the latter.
Occupying a beautiful corner plot within the sought-after Wistaston area, this individual four-bedroom, two bathroom detached home has undergone an extensive transformation by the present owners, with an enormous amount of thought, time and attention to detail invested in creating something genuinely different.
It is a property that really does need to be seen to be fully appreciated. Step inside and the quality of the renovation quickly becomes apparent.
At the heart of the home is an impressive open-plan lounge and dining room, creating a fantastic social area equally suited to busy family life, entertaining friends or simply spreading out and enjoying the space.
There are four double bedrooms providing excellent accommodation for a growing family, visiting guests or anyone looking for that increasingly important additional working space.
Outside is where Craigower becomes even more interesting. The generous south facing corner plot has allowed the owners to create a garden with real personality.
It includes a distinctive Nordic-style timber garden room which provides a superb space away from the main house, and could easily become a studio, hobby room or peaceful garden retreat.
There is also ample driveway parking together with an EV Charger. The single integral garage features an electrically operated up-and-over door, providing useful secure parking and additional storage.
The location complements the house perfectly. Wistaston offers that increasingly desirable balance between village life, green space and accessibility.
The popular Joey the Swan recreation area provides attractive parkland, woodland, a children's play area and walking routes alongside Wistaston Brook, while the wider village also benefits from sports facilities, tennis courts, a bowling green and community amenities.
For those needing to travel further afield, Crewe railway station provides connections towards Manchester, Birmingham, London and beyond, while the surrounding road network makes Wistaston well placed for access towards Crewe, Nantwich and the wider Cheshire area.
Beautifully presented, thoughtfully redesigned and sitting in beautiful mature gardens on a corner plot, Craigower isn't your typical four-bedroom home – and that's precisely the point.
