Full Details

DESCRIPTION
Once a School Master's residence, this beautiful traditional home, built in 1896, is situated in a highly sought-after location, offering convenient access to the local village amenities of Rossett, as well as excellent transport links to Chester, the motorway network, and a wide range of everyday facilities. The property occupies a generous plot and, while requiring some modernisation, presents a fantastic opportunity to create a wonderful family home. The internal accommodation comprises an entrance hall, living room, dining room, kitchen, utility room, and a first-floor landing providing access to a family bathroom, three well-proportioned bedrooms, and a walk-in storage area. Externally, the property benefits from off-road parking and sizeable gardens, which are mainly laid to lawn and bordered by a variety of mature plants, shrubs, and trees. Additionally, there are three brick-built outbuildings offering useful storage or potential for further development (subject to any necessary planning permissions).

LOCATION
Pulford is a charming village in Cheshire West and Chester, situated just to the southwest of Chester and bordering Wales. Steeped in history, the village has roots going back to the Domesday Book and features the ancient earthworks of Pulford Castle as well as the elegant St Mary’s Church, rebuilt in the late 19th century by the architect John Douglas. Despite its rural feel, Pulford offers excellent accessibility. It lies close to Chester (about five miles away), with good road links, frequent bus services, and nearby amenities in neighbouring villages like Rossett. Residents enjoy the tranquillity of village life — scenic landscapes, views over open countryside, mature trees and green spaces — while remaining within easy reach of more urban facilities, schools, shops and transport. The community is tight knit, with local landmarks like the Grosvenor Pulford Hotel adding charm and style to village life.
