Well; this is bound to set pulses racing. It certainly did mine! These are some of the words that sprang to mind at my first visit...beautifully presented...stylish... Attractive...impressive ...tasteful...and that's just the owner! No seriously...This really is a gem of a house, that just keeps on shining. They say...life is full of surprises...I can't stop thinking about this house! I just love it. As Tina Turner once sang...You're simply the best...better than all the rest...better than anyone...anyone i've ever met. And it's true, this house will take some beating.

This is a property that is still packed with many beautiful and typically characteristic features of an Edwardian house...mouth-wateringly so...examples are...the high ceilings, skirtings, architraves, cornices, numerous fireplaces, and the staircases to name a few. It is fabulous to see how ”the new, ” has been skillfully and sympathetically blended with ”the old, ” communicating effortlessly with calming outside space for relaxation and ease of entertaining. The result...a house that will be the envy of many, and will enable you to have a fabulous lifestyle...Please believe me...i'm an Estate Agent. But don't take my word for it...book yourself an appointment, and I will see you there at the open viewing. This is the one that you simply must add to your house-hunting shopping list.

So let's get down to the serious business of telling you all about this house. Having parked outside the property and walked up the pathway, your guided tour will start by entering through the front door which gives access to a lovely hallway. (check out the photo) First on the left will take you into an elegant living room where treats such as a period fireplace, a super bay window, a high ceiling (2.89m high) and lovely cornices await you. Mmm...mm...mmmm...nice. 2nd left off the hallway will take you into a beautiful open plan 5.2m dining kitchen. Here contemporary meets character, and what a lovely couple they make. (check out the photos) From here you can access the back garden. You can continue into the depths of the house by proceeding down the staircase from the hallway to the lower ground floor. I suppose, in Edwardian times, this may well have been a cellar or perhaps the servant's quarters...who knows? Not now though...what a pleasant surprise to see the conversion that has taken place down here! Here you will find a 2nd Living/TV/play room, a separate room doubling up as an office and gym and a super utility room. This would definitely be my man-cave. From the hallway, proceeding up the stairs will whisk you up to the first floor, which gives access to the first-floor rooms. The master bedroom is certainly not outdone by the elegance of the living room; lovely twin windows, picture rails, cornices and ceiling rose, to match those of the room below. I certainly would not be rushing to get out of bed on weekend mornings. The 2nd bedroom is located at the rear of the house and again has some nice period features too. A cute shower room with a white suite finishes this floor off just nicely. A ”return” staircase will take you up the 2nd floor (or attic if you prefer). Two further double bedrooms await you here. The rear bedroom has a Velux window with the front bedroom having an Edwardian style dormer window. The ”C and C” has made it's way all the way up here too!

And so to the outside...There is a small front garden, thus setting the house back from Potternewton Lane. There is a small but perfectly formed, enclosed, low-maintenance rear garden, which enjoys privacy and has a southerly aspect.

It is not often that you come across a period property that has been so carefully and thoughtfully improved so as to maintain the character and charm, and to have had this work carried out throughout the entire house is a pleasure to see. The property has had a new roof and even the windows have been replaced in the style of the originals!

Ahhh... But what about the nearby amenities...loads of them! All sorts and too many to mention... But do let me know if you think there are any of value that are missing. Don't tell too many people though, because if you do come up with one, you may be onto a winner!

So there you have it; one of Chapel Allerton's hidden gems... Not now that I have told everyone about it. Please believe me...i'm an Estate Agent. Book yourself an appointment, and I will see you there, at the open viewing.
