High Billinge House is a handsome brick-built country residence with several outbuildings totalling well over 5,000 square feet.
The grand reception hall with its ornate stairway and original Victorian floor tiles, branches off onto the light-filled dual-aspect sitting room, whilst an additional welcoming family room with double doors to the front garden sits further on. The sitting room enjoys a feature fireplace and the family room a log-burning stove, whilst the bright conservatory with its impressive panoramic views sits alongside a generous study.
The 23 ft. traditional kitchen has a jade AGA stove, dual sinks, an extensive array of cabinetry and ample space for informal dining. There is a 30 ft. cellar, large utility and cloakroom, with an elegant formal dining room completing the floor.
The first floor accessed by either the main stairway to a large landing, or from the rear staircase from the kitchen, houses an additional an attractive family bathroom and four well-proportioned bedrooms with fine features and tranquil elevated aspects. The principal suite benefits from a fully fitted dressing room and en suite bathroom, with a second bedroom also enjoying the use of a chic en suite bathroom.
The property and gardens form a lot of c.1.7 acres, with just over 5 acres of paddocks, all encircled by uninterrupted countryside.
Its extensive wrap-around grounds comprise large formal lawns interspersed with manicured and vibrant herbaceous borders, mature trees, an established vegetable plot, a raised paved terrace beside the home with unbeatable views and a second terrace below.
A substantial dual entrance gravelled driveway and large detached garage with stores below offer ample parking, with an original barn comprising a workshop and log store and a triple stable block also on the plot.
The home occupies a rural position 12 miles east of the historic city of Chester. Utkinton is a picturesque village with everyday amenities including a farm shop, Post Office and school, with the nearby village of Tarporley providing further local shops and boutiques, bars and restaurants, hairdressers, doctor and dental surgeries. The city of Chester provides even more comprehensive shopping, recreational and leisure facilities.
There are convenient road links via the M56 and M6. Noted nearby schools include The Firs, Abbey Gate, King’s, Queen’s and Ellesmere.
