The outside of the property affords private, mature planted gardens with patio seating areas and ample off-road parking is provided via a gravelled driveway; the driveway leads onto a detached brick built double garage. There are linked brick built outbuildings attached to the main house, at present used for utility area and storage.
Location
Found in a particularly pleasing rural location, the property is well positioned to make full use of a number of local amenities, including the local village store, the village church and the Grosvenor Arms public house and leisure centre. However, Chester is only approximately 4 miles away, providing an excellent range of shopping, recreational and educational facilities. The A483 is also within 3 miles, leading to the A55 and the National motorway network, thus providing good links to the major employment centres of the region.
Directions
From Chester, take the A483 signposted towards North Wales and leave the city along Wrexham Road passing the Kings School. Cross over the A55 at the roundabout and continue towards Wrexham to the next roundabout where you should take the first exit signposted to Pulford and Rossett. Continue for about 1 1/2 mile and turn left into The Clerks House.
