Set behind gated access on Little Heath Lane, the property benefits from a wide and private driveway, offering parking for at least three vehicles and complemented by a carport. While there is a small utility substation to one side, it has only very occasional access requirements and doesn’t interfere with day-to-day use of the space. The front of the home is attractively walled, creating a quiet, low-maintenance courtyard garden with enough room for a table and chairs – a perfect sun-trap for relaxing or entertaining outdoors.

The home itself is full of charm and character, with an intriguing and versatile layout that flows beautifully. Entering from the rear porch, you’re welcomed into a central hallway that links all the main rooms. The living room is a generous and naturally bright space with two large windows and a central fireplace, making it a cosy and sunny retreat that enjoys the afternoon light. Just next door is the kitchen, fitted with a range of timber-effect units and integrated appliances including a NEFF dishwasher and built-in freezer, with two more windows flooding the room with light.

There are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, each with their own distinct feel. The principal bedroom features fitted wardrobes and an en suite bathroom with white suite, shower over bath, and ceramic tile flooring, all bathed in natural light from a Velux window. The second bedroom is accessed via a separate hallway, making it ideal for guests or multi-generational living. It too benefits from full-width built-in storage and sits next to a separate shower room, which offers a white suite and corner shower – perfectly functional as-is but with scope to refresh in time.

The home also offers a thoughtfully placed utility area with plumbing for laundry appliances, and at the far end, a delightful sunroom or conservatory opens out onto the garden. This sunny and versatile space could serve as a dining room, a quiet reading nook, or a creative studio – with access directly out into the garden.

Tara Cottage is a rare find – full of potential, character and privacy, all wrapped up in a location that is truly unbeatable. Less than a minute’s walk from the village’s most iconic spots, and just a short drive from Chester city centre, this is a home that offers lifestyle as much as it does convenience. Ready to move into and enjoy immediately, it also presents the opportunity to make it your own over time.
