Recently renovated period home with additional self-contained two bedroom annexe, workshop and summer house, overlooking the green in the heart of Wrenbury village
Ideally located in the very heart of Wrenbury village, Birchwood House is a handsome, double-fronted Georgian residence, spanning almost 5000 square feet and incorporating a workshop, fully converted basement and an additional, self-contained two bedroom annexe.
Originally dating back to the 1800's, the current owners have embarked on a programme of extensive renovation including a new roof, new windows throughout, guttering, front door and kitchen. The end result is an fabulous period home with a modern twist, combining Georgian grandeur and charm with contemporary design and modern convenience.
The spacious, self-contained two bedroom annexe is an excellent addition. A fine property in it's own right, this could be ideal for multigenerational living, live-in assistance or potentially rented out as a source of income.
The property is sat in an elevated position overlooking the village green, with pedestrian gate to the front and two generous driveways, allowing off-street parking for at least five vehicles. The ground floor opens through a new, high specification front door into an inner porch with tiled flooring, leading through to the spacious and welcoming entrance hall with original tiling and spindle staircase leading to the upstairs accommodation.
To the right of the hall is the drawing room, filled with natural light owing to the large bay window to the front elevation which overlooks the well maintained gardens to the front and village green beyond. The room is of ample proportions, with beautiful wooden flooring and a log burner.

This really is the heart of the home, perfect for entertaining on a grand scale. The kitchen has been recently completed in 2023, incorporating bespoke solid oak wall, drawer and base units, Dekton worktops, pantry, as well as a variety of high quality integrated AEG appliances to include; fridge, freezer, dishwasher, extractor fan, ceramic hob and Quooker tap.
There is an additional reception room situated just off the kitchen. Currently used as a playroom, but suitable for a variety of uses including home office or additional sitting room. There is also a WC, storage cupboard and large laundry room with side door to complete the ground floor accommodation.
