Exceptionally rare opportunity set in 6.13 acres with no chain, located on a tranquil no through county lane and enjoying stunning views, a beautiful cottage with outstanding potential to enhance.
Comment From Robert Reed Of Gascoigne Halman
So often houses with over six acres of land in Cheshire are beyond the affordability of the majority of buyers and have been developed in such a way that leaves no room for future customisation. This incredibly rare buying opportunity delivers the opposite, with a very fair and competitive price and an unspoilt cottage with extensive potential to modernise, enhance, adapt or even knock down and replace, all subject to necessary planning permissions being granted.
This truly special detached cottage has been in the same family for many many years and is rich in history. It is set in grounds of 6.13 acre and enjoys a truly delightful location on a tranquil country lane that is tucked away and private. An example of its rarity value is that there are only two houses in the entire postcode! With views of the Bickerton Hills and Brown Knowl the location feels totally rural yet the position lies within comfortable travelling distance of Malpas, Tattenhall, Bunbury, Tarporley and Chester.
The house as it stands extends to 1644 square feet and is in need of complete modernisation. The land would lend itself ideally to those with an equestrian interest or those seeking to graze livestock or have ponies, alpackers or donkeys.
The house faces south to the rear.
Accommodation And Dimensions
As detailed on the floorplan.
Location
Broxton, Harthill, Bickerton, Bulkeley, Brown Knowl and the nearby hamlets of Ridley, Beeston and Peckforton are renowned for their natural beauty and proximity to surrounding countryside. Broxton is near the centre point between Nantwich, Tarporley and Malpas, three highly attractive areas renowned for individual retail outlets and immense character and charm.
The area as a whole is ideal for those who enjoy rural living with walks in Bulkeley Hill Wood, Bickerton Hills and the Sandstone Trail all readily accessible. The National Trust have recently taken over the management and ownership of many of these walkways thereby providing future protection as to the use of the land. There is a great selection of nearby pubs and restaurants, The Bickerton Poacher which has always been popular with locals is just a short distance away and the recently reopened Sandstone is also proving a hit. The Cholmondeley Arms, Egerton Arms, The Pheasant Inn at Burwardsley and The Dysart Arms are also all within a short drive.

Proceed for a very short distance and at the next junction take a further right, onto the A534 (Wrexham). Proceed along the A534 passing the Bickerton Poacher turning left just after the Sandstone Inn. Proceed for approximately half a mile until reaching a junction.
