Comment From Robert Reed Of Gascoigne Halman
If you want a one word summary, the word is wow. If you want a more comprehensive description, read on!
This is a wonderful buying opportunity and an overall property of exceptional unique quality in a remarkable elevated location that is documented as being one of the highest points in the County. Accordingly, the views are far reaching and extensive and the grounds extend in total to 7.62 acre.
The property in summary comprises a detached converted barn extending to 4308 square feet, a cutting edge contemporary two storey outbuilding with terrace of 1046 square feet with permission for use as garage, home office and gym and an equestrian yard that has 784 square feet stable block, ménage, paddocks, a field shelter and its own independent gated entrance.
The property has only ever had one owner and in the nearly twenty years of ownership, there has been substantial and continual capital investment into every aspect of the property, with painstaking attention to detail and intelligently thought through, beautifully implemented changes.
The principal accommodation is the 4308 square feet detached barn, completed in 2005 with all work undertaken by one of this part of Cheshire¿s most renowned developers, ppls Developments. There is a stunning use of oak and high grade materials throughout and the layout is perfectly formulated for family life. There is also a huge amount of space. The house is ready to move into and can be enjoyed immediately, whilst also offering some scope for individual customisation and selective contemporary upgrading.
