Description

This substantial detached Victorian farmhouse occupies a delightful rural location close to Knutsford and forms part of an attractive farmstead of four properties that are arranged around a central courtyard area.

The house has been substantially extended over the years and now provides approximately 4,000 sq feet of accommodation, which is perfectly suited to modern family living and entertaining. The centrepiece of the home is a fabulous 33-foot living room, which enjoys a wonderful aspect over the established pond and mature gardens, creating an inviting space for social gatherings. The open-plan breakfast kitchen is thoughtfully designed, with designated informal dining and sitting areas and two further reception rooms provide further flexibility for a growing family. Completing the ground floor accommodation are a good sized study, shower room and access to a cellar. The first floor is made up of five bedrooms and 4 bath/shower rooms, including a substantial, dual aspect principle bedroom with spacious en-suite bathroom.

The outside space is equally impressive, with formal gardens and an adjoining paddock extending to over 2.5 acres in total. The established gardens feature a substantial lawn, wildlife pond, enclosed vegetable patch and detached summer house from where the gardens can be enjoyed. A large terrace area off the living room offers the perfect spot for al fresco dining or summer entertaining, while the picturesque pond creates a tranquil focal point and attracts a range of wildlife. The adjoining paddock is ideal for those seeking space for equestrian pursuits, smallholding, or simply enjoying the open countryside.

To the rear of the house is a detached garage building, comprising a double garage as well as ancillary accommodation, which could be re-modelled/enhanced to provide a comfortable self-contained annex, ideal for a dependent relative or teenager.
