West End House – An Exceptional Character Home With Space, Style & Substance

Some houses have the space, some have the character, and some have those thoughtful details that make them truly memorable. West End House manages to bring all three together. This substantial five-bedroom period home has been extensively renovated, combining original features and individual craftsmanship with beautifully considered family accommodation, all within walking distance of the highly desirable village of Malpas and its comprehensive range of amenities.

From the beautiful original panelled entrance door to the bespoke handmade kitchen, vaulted ceiling and cleverly concealed home office within the living room cabinetry, this is a home that rewards a closer look. Arranged over three floors, the accommodation offers generous reception space, five double bedrooms, three bath or shower rooms, a private landscaped garden, garaging and an additional room above the garage with exciting potential for a studio, gym or home office.

The Entrance & Reception Rooms

The beautiful original panelled front door opens into a spacious reception hallway, immediately setting the tone for the character and quality found throughout. The hallway leads through to the principal reception rooms and the impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and family area.

The large living room is a particularly appealing space, featuring a handsome wood-block floor, two generous south-facing sash windows and an attractive fireplace fitted with a log-burning stove. Adding to its individuality is a bespoke handmade cabinet which cleverly conceals a fitted desk and shelving, providing a discreet home-working area that can be tucked away when the working day is done. Alternatively, the cabinetry could accommodate a television and media equipment, allowing the room to retain its elegant appearance.

A separate study offers further flexibility, whether used for home working, a reading room or a children's playroom, depending on the needs of the household.

The Heart Of The Home

To the rear, the impressive T-shaped kitchen, dining and family room is undoubtedly one of West End House's defining features. With its vaulted ceiling, generous proportions and carefully chosen materials, this is a space designed around the way modern families live, bringing cooking, dining, entertaining and relaxing together under one roof.

The handmade kitchen features bespoke cabinetry, granite work surfaces and a matching central island with a marble work surface, creating a striking focal point. A Smeg range cooker with five-burner gas hob and double oven sits alongside an integrated dishwasher and American-style fridge freezer, while a matching dresser and pantry cupboard provide further storage and complete the thoughtfully designed finish.

There is ample room for a substantial family dining table, with the layout equally suited to larger gatherings and special occasions. Beyond the dining area, a picture window and glazed double doors overlook and open directly onto the secluded rear courtyard garden, making outdoor dining and entertaining a natural extension of the living space.

A recessed snug or sitting area provides a more relaxed corner of the room, ideal for unwinding with a book, enjoying a morning coffee or keeping the cook company without being under their feet.

A separate utility room continues the bespoke cabinetry, with a sink, additional storage and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer. A useful boot room with built-in cupboards and external garden access leads through to a guest cloakroom, providing a practical arrangement for busy family life.

First Floor – Three Double Bedrooms

The first-floor accommodation continues to impress, with three generous double bedrooms and two bath or shower rooms.

Bedroom one is a particularly spacious principal suite, with a walk-in dressing room leading through to its own en-suite shower room, creating a private retreat away from the main living areas.

Bedroom two is another comfortable double and benefits from a communicating door to the family bathroom, creating a convenient Jack and Jill arrangement. The family bathroom is a lovely blend of traditional styling and modern practicality, featuring a freestanding roll-top bath, separate large shower enclosure, wash hand basin, WC and heated towel rail.

Bedroom three is a further generous double bedroom, retaining an original feature fire grate that adds to the period character.

Second Floor – Further Bedrooms & Flexibility

A staircase rises from the first-floor landing to a spacious second-floor landing, offering potential for a small study area or reading nook.

Two further well-proportioned double bedrooms occupy this floor, making the house particularly well suited to larger families, visiting guests or those who need additional space for hobbies and working from home. A contemporary shower room with WC completes the accommodation, providing a practical arrangement for the upper-floor bedrooms.

Outside – A Private Landscaped Garden

The gardens are arranged principally to the side and rear, providing a secluded outdoor setting with a combination of attractive hard landscaping and easy-care planting.

The rear courtyard garden centres around generous Indian stone paved seating and entertaining areas, accessed directly from both the kitchen/family room and utility room. Artificial grass provides a practical, low-maintenance finish, while raised beds introduce greenery and structure. Mature shaped maple trees create an attractive backdrop and additional screening, complemented by established wisteria climbing across the rear elevation.

Steps lead up to a further elevated garden and seating area, with sleeper-retained raised beds and a lean-to potting shed with fitted workbench. The overall layout offers several distinct areas to sit, entertain or enjoy the garden, without the demands of a large expanse of lawn.

Garaging, Parking & Studio Potential

Vehicular access to the rear leads to a double-width driveway, providing valuable off-road parking and access to the oak-framed garage and carport.

The oak-framed structure has a double garage arrangement, with one side open and the other fitted with double front doors. Power, lighting and a side access door add to its practicality, whether for vehicle storage, equipment or hobbies.

Above the garage and carport is a separate room accessed via an external staircase. This is an exciting addition to the property, offering potential for a home office, creative studio, gym, workshop or games room, depending on individual requirements. For buyers seeking space to work from home or somewhere to pursue their interests away from the main house, it is a particularly valuable feature.

Village Life & Location

West End House occupies a convenient position within the highly desirable village of Malpas, where a bustling High Street, independent shops, everyday amenities and well-regarded schooling, including Bishop Heber High School, are all within easy reach.

For those who enjoy the outdoors, the surrounding countryside offers beautiful walks, while the Bickerton and Peckforton Hills are a short drive away, providing access to the Sandstone Trail and far-reaching views across the Cheshire Plain and towards the Welsh Hills.

Whitchurch, Chester, Nantwich and Wrexham are all accessible for a wider choice of shopping, dining and leisure facilities, making this an appealing location for those who want village life without feeling removed from larger centres.

The Final Word

West End House is a substantial and individual home in which character, craftsmanship and practical family living sit comfortably together. From the bespoke kitchen and cleverly concealed home office to the five double bedrooms, secluded landscaped garden, oak-framed garaging and versatile room above, there is plenty here to appreciate.

For families seeking a home with room to grow, buyers requiring flexible space for working from home, or those simply looking for a distinctive period property in one of the area's most desirable villages, West End House deserves to be viewed in person. An internal inspection is essential to appreciate the space, thoughtful details and individuality this exceptional home has to offer.
