The Ponds — rear exterior view showing contemporary architecture with south-facing landscaped gardens

The Ponds

A contemporary masterpiece in the heart of Cheshire

Guide Price £2,200,000

A home designed without compromise

Designed and constructed in 2015/16 as a dream family home, The Ponds is an architectural masterpiece offering over 5,300 square feet of cutting-edge contemporary living set within 0.83 acres of stunning south-facing landscaped gardens in the heart of Goostrey village.

Built from mellow brick with deep square bays, generous picture windows and a natural slate roof, the house sits across three carefully considered floors. A galleried entrance hall — its rear wall almost entirely glass — sets the tone: natural light, considered materials and a profound sense of space that runs throughout.

Gardens & Grounds

Approached through electric gates with brick pillars, a gravel driveway provides generous parking and a turning area. The formal parterre with clipped hedging creates an immediate sense of arrival.

To the rear, a wide concrete terrace — complete with built-in BBQ and pizza oven — extends the living space outdoors, with a Control4 sound system piped to the terrace. A raised timber decked seating area sits beneath two ancient oak trees, while manicured lawns stretch south to a fenced vegetable patch, productive orchard of pear and apple trees, and a well-maintained greenhouse.

The entire plot is beautifully screened by mature specimen trees and pleached hornbeam, creating an entirely private sanctuary just moments from the centre of the village.
