This house ticks the criteria boxes of most purchasers having land, location near a village with all amenities and only a short drive to Congleton or Macclesfield Town centres.
This property is situated off a service road adjacent to the main Congleton to Macclesfield road (A536) behind a gated back boundary wall with open outlook to the rear.
We are led to believe that one of the outbuildings was a blacksmiths shop known as High Lane Smithy and the property was built by John Holland, who employed ' Whisky Tommy' of Congleton to do the brick setting.
The property before being extended in the early 1990's was constructed in 1793 as shown in the date stone over the front door. The above information was taken from a book published by the Ancient Monuments Society.
High Lane House has the benefit of beamed ceilings and traditional fireplaces, but also the modern conveniences such as central heating and Argon filled PVCu double glazing.
The internal layout comprises porch to hall with stairs and cloakroom, doors to lounge with woodburning stove with fireplace, conservatory to rear, separate dining room and fully fitted kitchen diner with appliances and white hi gloss units.
At first floor level the landing allows access to four bedrooms, with en suite to master, and a family bathroom.
As mentioned above, there are formal garden detached buildings, one being the blacksmith shop which comprises the workshop and the adjoining cart shed (car garage today) and the other outbuilding could be used as a stable and tack room. The paddock is one large field with two five bar gate access points onto the road.
The curtilage extends to approximately 3.65 acres (1.477 ha) or thereabouts.
Awaiting more photographs & virtual tour.
