1 Ash Close, Lower Peover, Knutsford, WA16 9GJ

Contemporary Country Living in the Heart of Lower Peover

Space, light and village life come together at 1 Ash Close, a substantial four-bedroom detached home whose contemporary proportions are complemented by one of Lower Peover's greatest assets - its wonderfully rural Cheshire setting.

Built in 2018, the property offers an impressive balance between sociable family living and quieter individual spaces. A recently renovated kitchen anchors an expansive kitchen, dining and living room, while a separate lounge and dedicated study allow the household to spread out. Upstairs, all four bedrooms are doubles, including a generous master suite with dressing area and en suite.

Outside, the corner plot is complemented by a detached garage and two car driveway parking, while the addition of gates and a pathway around the property has further enhanced the practical side of the outside space.

Most importantly, there is a real sense of connection to Lower Peover itself. Two pubs, a village store and Post Office and the local primary school are all within walking distance, with field walks close at hand and Knutsford only a short drive away.

Welcome Home

Step inside and the entrance hall introduces a layout designed around the realities of modern family life.

To the front, a dedicated study creates a proper working environment away from the main living spaces. Its generous proportions allow it to function as much more than a desk tucked into a spare room, while built-in hallway storage provides somewhere to keep coats, shoes and everyday essentials out of sight.

A ground-floor WC sits conveniently nearby.

Room to Retreat

Across the hall, the separate lounge provides an inviting counterpoint to the open-plan living beyond.

Its proportions allow for generous seating, while the bi-folding doors draw your eyes to the garden, a natural focal point. This is the room for quieter evenings, films and winter nights at home, allowing the larger family space to remain the more sociable heart of the house.

The Heart of the Home

Stretching from front to rear is an exceptional kitchen, dining and living room, creating one continuous family space with plenty of room for cooking, gathering around the table and relaxing.

The kitchen was renovated in 2022 and is arranged around a substantial central island. Dual NEFF ovens form part of the specification, while extensive cabinetry provides excellent storage.

The floorplan reveals just how successfully the room has been zoned. The kitchen occupies one end, leaving a broad expanse for dining and relaxed seating beyond, without any one function encroaching on another.

LIFE AT 1 ASH CLOSE: “The location was what initially drew us here, but the amount of space inside makes the house work so well for family life.”

A separate pantry provides further valuable storage and keeps other household practicalities neatly removed from the main kitchen.

Rest and Retreat

The sense of space continues upstairs, where four double bedrooms are arranged around the landing.

The master bedroom is particularly generous and connects with its own dressing area and private en suite shower room, creating a distinct retreat away from the rest of the house.

LIFE AT 1 ASH CLOSE: “The master bedroom has a real feeling of space, with the dressing room keeping storage separate from the main bedroom.”

A second bedroom is generously proportioned making it particularly useful for older children or guests.

Two further double bedrooms complete the sleeping accommodation, with a family bathroom serving the remaining rooms.

From a more practical point of view, there is also a dedicated laundry room upstairs. For a four-bedroom family home, having laundry facilities close to the bedrooms adds another layer of everyday practicality.

Storage and Practicality

Storage has been well considered throughout including a sizeable under stairs storage area.

Alongside the pantry, utility storage and master dressing room, there is a store room positioned beside the garage and a fully boarded loft with ladder access.

Modern conveniences include Wi-Fi, Hive heating and Ring cameras, alongside gas central heating and excellent reported mobile coverage.

Outdoor Living

The property occupies a corner plot, giving it a more open position within Ash Close.

A pathway has been installed down the side of the house and gates added around the exterior, helping define the garden and make movement around the property easier.

The part walled garden feels manicured and spacious with ideal spaces for outdoor entertaining. A great strength of the garden is the overall corner position and the easy connection between house, garden and wider village setting.

To the rear, two car driveway parking is complemented by a detached garage, providing secure parking and useful additional storage.

Life Locally

Rural Cheshire with Knutsford and Holmes Chapel Close at Hand

Location is the defining lifestyle advantage at 1 Ash Close.

Lower Peover combines a genuinely rural Cheshire atmosphere with the convenience of having everyday village essentials close at hand. Two pubs, a Post Office and small store and the local primary school can all be reached within around a 15-minute walk.

A Walk?

Head out across the fields around Lower Peover, with favourite walks taking in the countryside around The Bells of Peover.

It is the kind of setting where an evening walk can begin from home rather than requiring a drive first.

A Local Pub?

Lower Peover is particularly well served for a village of its size, with both The Bells of Peover and The Crown close at hand.

Whether it's a quiet drink, Sunday lunch or dinner with friends, having two established country pubs nearby is an appealing part of village life.

Everyday Essentials?

Lowe's Farm Shop is a favourite for local shopping, while the village store provides another convenient option for day-to-day essentials.

A Bite to Eat?

Knutsford is the natural destination when a wider choice is called for, with its collection of restaurants, cafés and bars within easy driving distance.

Schools?

Lower Peover, Goostrey and Peover Superior are identified among the local schooling options, with Lower Peover Primary School itself within walking distance.

Buyers should make their own enquiries regarding current admissions and catchment arrangements.

Getting Around

Plumley is the closest railway station, while Knutsford, Holmes Chapel, Wilmslow and Northwich can all be reached within around half an hour by car.

This puts a broad choice of shops, restaurants, schools, leisure facilities and transport connections within easy reach while retaining the quieter pace of village life.

LIFE AT 1 ASH CLOSE: “Lower Peover gives us the countryside and village atmosphere we wanted, while Knutsford, Wilmslow, Holmes Chapel and Northwich are all easy to reach.”

A Home That Balances Space and Setting

1 Ash Close brings together two qualities that matter enormously to family buyers - generous accommodation and a location that makes everyday life enjoyable.

The kitchen, dining and living room provides the social centre of the home, while the lounge and study offer quieter spaces when needed. Four double bedrooms remove the usual compromises upstairs, with a master en suite and dressing area, a family bathroom and dedicated laundry adding further practicality.

Outside, the corner position, garage and driveway provide useful space, while beyond the property itself lies the real draw - Lower Peover's countryside, village pubs, local school and field walks, with Knutsford and the wider Cheshire area comfortably accessible.
