Moss Lane, Manley

Wonderful individual house in a fabulous location on a tranquil lane, enjoying large private plot of just over three acres and offering extensive accommodation extending to just under 6000 square feet

Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman
It is really exciting to start the new year with instructions to offer for sale this wonderful, unique and totally individual detached residence, that is set in grounds of three acres and enjoys a location difficult to better.

Those who have followed property transactions and development in Manley in the last five years will have noted that the areas now boasts become some of the most tasteful and high quality houses in the wider area. This, combined with the natural rural beauty of the locality, has made the village one of the go to areas for discerning property buyers seeking a long term family home.

The area as a whole is absolutely beautiful, with many tree lined lanes, outstanding architecture and close access to glorious open countryside and Delamere Forest. The subject property is known as Timbers, and this reflects both the variety of wood that is on show in the house in addition to the plot, which has a lovely variety of trees.

The house itself displays great individuality and has incredibly versatile and extensive space, extending in total to just under 6000 square feet. Externally the house has more than a passing resemblance to Scandinavian property architecture whilst the width, maturity and privacy of the grounds remind me of an American parkland ranch. The combination is very special.

Internally the house has a spectacular hallway with bespoke staircase, four large and adaptable reception room and a good size breakfast kitchen with views of the garden. Another rare feature is an excellent internal leisure complex which comprises a full length swimming pool together with a rear hall, changing room and sauna. This being an ideal facility for those with an enthusiasm for swimming and fitness or those with a growing family. The layout of this area is well though through, with double doors leading from the swimming pool to the outside and also an interconnecting door to the integral double garage.

At first floor there are five bedrooms (four doubles), three en suites, and a house bathroom. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive with spectacular vaulted ceiling, whilst the second bedroom has a balcony which enjoys terrific views to the of the grounds to the rear.

The present owners have invested into their home with the property in excellent decorative order throughout and there also being a repainted kitchen and a superbly appointed contemporary family bathroom. This is a house that can be immediately moved into and enjoyed. There is also limitless potential for a future owner to impose their own ideas and design concepts into the house. Those with larger budgets may, subject to planning seek to extend further and the layout could be adapted in a number of different ways to suit individual requirements.

And what of the outside? Well this is where the present owners have invested heavily to create a delightful area ideal for relaxing and chilling out at the end of a hard days work. The raised open fronted garden room area has a large decking platform, a hot tub, tv connection and large seating area. Whether friends, family or a combination of the two, this is a super feature and it is tucked away in a private part of the plot, enjoying super views of the garden and grounds. The grounds comprise formal gardens and paddocks, opening up potential for those who want horses, ponies or donkeys.

Despite its tranquility and walking distance proximity to Delamere Forest, Manley is perfectly located for commuting to a range of key commercial centres and two airports so this really is the best of both worlds.
