Step into your own chapter of a timeless romance with Wycoller, a home not quite cloaked in the misty moors of Lancashire, yet every inch as beguiling as a Brontë setting. Set within 0.56 acres of the most picturesque and lovingly tended gardens, this magnificent four bedroom detached residence is the embodiment of your idyllic vision. If, like Jane Eyre, you refuse to compromise your values and ambition, then perhaps destiny has brought you to this very page. Why, indeed, have you not viewed it sooner?
Drawing up on the sweeping tarmac driveway where there’s more than enough room for you, your family and guests, you’ll be greeted by a grand double garage sitting comfortably to the left of this wonderful abode. Every part of this property will have you a gasp including the welcoming entrance hallway with a wooden herringbone flooring and impressive galleried landing with oak stairs up to it. A guest W.C is on the left along with a lounge that will cater for the largest of family gatherings and to compliment this space further, an extra sitting area has been added which offers the most wonderful view over the sensational gardens, a scene worthy of any painter’s canvas.
To the right of the hallway you’ll discover the kitchen/breakfast room, ideal for lazy Sunday morning breakfasts or chats over a coffee and adjacent you’ll find a dining room fit for large family banquets or intimate evening meals with loved ones, with yet another sitting/sun room area to enjoy the garden. The utility offers a practical space for extra storage and laundry with a cupboard and an additional laundry room, which continues to a large office which has been used by the family over the years as a play room and a 5th guest bedroom.
But it is the garden room that captures the soul, a sanctuary of glass and light, where two sets of bi-folding doors part like theatre curtains to reveal a living masterpiece; the grounds beyond which are not just a garden, but a poem in bloom, 0.56 acres of stunning flower and fauna. A romantic garden whispering tales of children running around playing hide and seek, catching tadpoles in the stream, you really will feel like you’ve stepped in to your own romantic novel.
Ascending up the staircase you’ll discover four generous double bedrooms that wrap around the galleried landing. To the main bedroom you’ll be pleased to find fitted wardrobes and a beautiful en-suite shower room that has been recently modernised bringing in to the 21st century style. The family bathroom mirrors this contemporary feel with a bath, shower enclosure, vanity unit with sink inset, W.C and marble effect tiles to complete this first floor.
And then, beyond the threshold, lies the pièce de résistance, the gardens to this handsome home. Step onto the patio, which winds gently to a sun kissed corner perfect for a kitchen garden or secret reading nook, with access in to the double garage and a gate around to the front driveway. To the far right is a lawn lined with flower beds incorporating an eclectic array of shrubs, flowers and mature trees. Steps down lead to the very pretty, crystal clear stream that runs the length of the garden, an idyllic addition that children and adults alike will enjoy. There are patio areas dotted around to make the most of the sunshine that envelopes around the garden during the day along with a large garden to the rear. Whilst meandering around, discovering all the beautiful areas of this garden, wondering under pergolas, over a bridge, down the path to the orchard, where you can grab yourself an apple or pear, where you’ll be forgiven for feeling like Charlotte Bronte from days gone by, enjoying the peace and tranquility. For Wycoller is not merely a house, but a haven. A place to love, to grow, and to belong.
Feel free to holler as many romantic quotes from Jayne Eyre as you like but one that instinctually comes to mind to when you view Wycoller in a nutshell is, “I have for the first time found what I can truly love - I have found you!”. So please do not hesitate, this property will not disappoint you, it’s quite simply a dream come true! Call our Eccleshall office today on 01785 851886.
