AN opportunity to buy a home on the grounds of the historic Arley Hall in Cheshire has presented itself to house-hunters.

A four-bedroom contemporary home, which forms part of an exclusive courtyard development on the Arley Hall estate, has been put on the market at £800,000 by Lord & Porter Limited.

Built by PH Property Holdings in 2008, Kennels Green offers accommodation of more than 2,000 square feet, as well as a private garden and separate garage. 

The property listing on Rightmove says: "With only 14 properties surrounding a central green, these homes are crafted to high standards, combining natural materials with modern design elements.

"Features include air-sourced underfloor heating, Villeroy & Boch bathroom fittings, limestone tiling, and oak finishes, such as solid oak barn-style internal doors and a stunning oak and steel framed glass balustrade staircase.

"On the ground floor, a wide and spacious central reception hallway provides access to the principal reception areas.

"The lounge, located at the front of the house, offers a lovely setting with dual aspect windows that overlook both the courtyard and gardens.

"An archway from the hall leads into a generous dining room, offering ample space for an eight-seater table and a front-facing window for natural light.

"The kitchen, situated at the rear, opens out onto the garden through French doors in the large breakfast area, which accommodates both dining and living room furniture.

"The kitchen is fitted with contemporary cream gloss cabinets contrasted with black granite worktops and includes a range of quality built-in appliances."

On heading upstairs, visitors will find four large double bedrooms, including a master suite with built-in wardrobes and an en suite bathroom.

Outside, there is a 'generous' garden, backing into a row of trees and neighbouring parkland beyond.

Landscaped with a stone-flagged patio at the rear of the house, the garden is also well stocked with boarders and flower beds.

There are two allocated parking spaces accessed from the rear via a garden gate as well as a single garage.
