Lyons Lane, Appleton, WA4

An impressive period house in a private and elevated position on one of the town’s foremost roads within easy reach of the village centre with all of its amenities.

Lyons Lane is a popular and sought after location on the outskirts of Stockton Heath and Appleton. Homes in this locality tend to be the largest and most prestigious locally and are certainly very sought after. No 10 was acquired by the current owners in 2017 who embarked on an extensive renovation and alteration programme - the house today being presented beautifully throughout with quality fittings and a lovely flow of accommodation.

It sits elevated from Lyons Lane with a stone walled entrance and remote control gates leading to a good sized driveway and turning forecourt at the front of the house and to the double garage building with apartment over. The plot is excellent, around a third of an acre in all, and includes landscaped lawns, terraces and shingle pathways with a wooded backdrop and the cricket ground to the rear.

Internally, there is little that hasn’t been done during the owners time here including new kitchens, bathrooms, windows and extensive other infrastructure works. The front door gives access to a spacious entrance hall with WC, and French doors lead out to the rear terrace and garden, and a turning flight staircase leads off the hallway to the first floor. The main lounge is an attractive triple aspect room with an impressive fireplace and living flame gas fire insert.

The heart of the house is a large and impressive triple use kitchen dining and family room - the family room with windows overlooking the rear garden, a matching fireplace to the main sitting room and a large opening into the kitchen dining room. Completely refitted with a range of quality hand painted base and eye level cabinets with a large central island with fitted breakfast bar seating, the kitchen is of lovely quality with a built-in TV, pantry cupboards and a full range of appliances. The dining space links into the family and kitchen area with french doors out to a small rear terrace. At the side of the kitchen is a large utility room with a pedestrian door to the front drive, a boiler room and a door leading through to a good sized home office with a range of fitted furniture and views over the garden.

At first floor level in the main house there are five bedrooms in all, leading off an impressive landing with windows overlooking the front garden. The principal bedroom is a dual aspect room with a range of fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room, beautifully remodelled with a range of marble style tiling and a walk-in shower enclosure. The current owners use the largest guest bedroom as their principal bedroom, cleverly designed with a range of fitted furniture including dressing table, chest of drawers and wardrobes with a large bed behind a half wall enjoying views over the rear gardens and the wooded backdrop. There are two further good sized double bedrooms - one with an extensive range of built-in wardrobes and also a generous single. These rooms share a refurbished shower room and a good sized family bathroom with claw foot bath and corner shower cubicle.

Externally, is a good sized detached two storey garage building with a double garage at ground floor level and an excellent first floor apartment which includes a lounge, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom, ideal for long term guests or relatives or perhaps for use as a home fitness/gym area.
