Orchard House, Ackers Road, Stockton Heath

‘Orchard House’ is one of just three properties built by Crosby Homes within the grounds of ‘Gatesgarth’; an impressive and substantial Victorian residence in established surroundings of the Conservation Area containing some of south Warrington’s more eminent private homes and one affording excellent levels of privacy whilst still offering tremendous convenience for the excellent range of facilities available in nearby Stockton Heath and Grappenhall with well regarded schooling and ready access to the motorway network being further attractions.  The house was built during the late 1990s to our clients’ own specification and presents a rare opportunity to acquire a quality, individual and substantial home nestled in a wonderful, private location with accommodation extending to around 3,000 ft².

The house has a fantastic internal layout with accommodation that feels incredibly spacious, all set around a large reception hall to include a through lounge with triple aspect, separate dining room, large kitchen with breakfast area which leads to a family room and conservatory beyond. There is also a study/hobbies room with a utility room and cloakroom/W.C. completing the ground floor space.  A galleried landing provides access to five bedrooms, two with en-suite facilities and the house bathroom. The gardens extend to the front, side and rear with a south westerly aspect. They are predominantly laid to lawn but afford very good levels of privacy. A generous brick paved driveway provides parking for several vehicles and access to a triple garage with workshop and studio space over.
