OWNER QUOTE: ”Seeing your horses in the paddock from the house is so lovely."

Make your way to the home's front entrance, where the wisteria trails its lilac blooms overhead. The hallway opens with the staircase ahead, intricate iron balustrades rising to the first floor.

The living room on the left is L-shaped, with a wood-burning stove within a brick surround. Two bifold doors open to the south-facing garden, allowing natural sunlight to fill the room. A spiral staircase in the corner gives direct access to the master bedroom above. A brick archway leads to the dining room, where another wood-burning stove sits proudly, ensuring the home is cosy and warm in winter.

The Heart of the Home
The kitchen is the heart of the home, where the family socialise at the end of a long day. Units are fitted in a horse-shoe shape with a sociableisland in the centre, all topped by granite worktops. There is space for an American-style fridge freezer and a range-style oven. Velux windows bring natural light into the space. The room then leads into a utility area with full-height storage cabinets to one wall and work surfaces to the other. There is plumbing for a washing machine, dishwasher, and Belfast sink here. Passing through the utility area will lead you to the downstairs shower room with a shower cubicle, WC, and wash hand basin.

And so to Bed…
Climbing the main stairs to the first floor, you will find three well-sized bedrooms. Each bedroom is a sanctuary of charm, showcasing an array of characterful features, making each space uniquely inviting. Large windows in every bedroom frame far-reaching views of the beautiful Cheshire countryside, allowing you to soak in the picturesque landscapes and tranquil scenery, imploring you to enjoy a slower pace of life.

Peaceful Sanctuary
For an added touch of privacy, the master bedroom is accessible via a charming spiral staircase. The luxurious en suite bathroom features a sumptuous roll-top bath, a separate shower, WC, and wash hand basin, offering the perfect retreat for a relaxing soak.

The family bathroom also ensures comfort and convenience with its own bath, overhead shower, WC, and wash hand basin, making it ideal for both quick refreshes and leisurely baths.

Room for all
The annexe is perfect for older children or elderly relatives, offering the ideal balance of independent living with the reassurance of help close at hand if needed. This inviting space includes a spacious double bedroom with an en suite bathroom, ensuring privacy and comfort. The open-plan kitchen and living area provide a modern and sociable environment for cooking and relaxing.

Additionally, a second double bedroom with a dedicated shower room and a second cosy living area make the annexe a self-contained haven, perfect for accommodating loved ones in style and comfort.

Sunshine, Shelter and Shade
The south-facing garden is separate from the paddocks and has trees and hedges for added privacy. A vegetable plot for growing your own and a patio area, accessed directly from the living room, is a real suntrap area. The landscaped patio area at the side of the property is tucked away and is a fantastic place to enjoy a coffee and read the paper in the morning sun, or enjoy a sundowner at the end of the day and watch the sun set.

Equestrian Facilities
With all the 12.19 acres in view, you can always keep a close eye on your horses in the paddock. With a menage, 7 stables, a hay barn, and a dedicated tack room, this property is a horse-lover's dream. There is also ample parking space for horseboxes and trailers.
