Description

Rare is the opportunity to purchase such a stunning property in such a truly magnificent location! ‘West View’ sits atop Congleton Edge Road which is perhaps the area’s most exclusive address, and it’s easy to see why! Picturesque and tranquil countryside surrounds you, yet despite its rural location, local amenities, schools, country pubs and the useful train station are all within easy reach making this property the ideal home for families as well as a whole range of buyers. (positioned only five minutes from Hightown).

The property itself is a real gem that can’t fail to leave a smile on your face! Its traditional stone appearance is complemented by grounds and gardens which extend to approx. 1 acre, that is simply ideal for those of you looking for a slice of ‘The Good Life’!

It is believed to have formally been a farm labourers cottage, dating back to circa 1854, and since in the ownership of the current vendors was completely overhauled, renovated and substantially extended within the last 40 years to create a spacious three bedroom residence with the enormous advantage of an adjoining 2 bed 2 storey annexe, which would suit an elderly, dependent or independent relative, offering self-containment and separation from the main residence. It also has massive potential, with some ingenious design flair to create a property of ‘Grand Design’.

Its grounds are substantial, extending to approx. 1 acre, formed with formal gardens, extensive terrace areas, enveloped in established flora, fauna, and impressive mature trees. The driveway areas are equally impressive with space for multiple vehicles, motorhome, caravan, and the like. The detached stone-built garage, probably the original hayloft, has been altered to a two-storey barn, with games room, sunroom and shower room on the ground floor and a large first floor room which will suit the likes of a gym/library or work from home office.

As you enter the property you will immediately feel the warm welcome of its charm. The three reception rooms boast natural exposed stone walls, fireplaces, and other features you would expect from such a prestigious building. The kitchen and utility are ideal for servicing country life and of note is the useful downstairs cloakroom.

On the galleried landing leading to the three well-proportioned bedroom, family bathroom and en suite shower room which again, all boast charming features of their own as well as reaching views over the immediate grounds to all sides.

Accompanying the main residence is a large two storey annexe constructed around time the vendors main residence was extended some 40 years ago. This in itself is a substantial property boasting its own private hall, lounge, dining kitchen, ground floor bedroom and bathroom, whilst to the first floor is a further bedroom and second bathroom.

They say a picture paints a thousand words so please take some time to enjoy the images of this magical home and call us now to book your internal viewing….before it’s too late!

Congleton Edge is located toward the South East of Congleton and is regarded as one of Congleton most privileged locations. As it's name suggests, it is on the fringe of the town, in the highly desired area of Mossley.

Mossley is a popular suburb, which is often favoured for its proximity to town and its excellent commuting links toward Manchester via the railway station and the A523. It is home to a well regarded Primary School and a selection of conveniences at Hightown, all of which are easily within walking distance..

This highly sought after area of Congleton is also very fortunate to enjoy useful amenities and some very beautiful open spaces, with the likes of the Macclesfield Canal, Biddulph Valley Way bridle path, two golf courses and Bosley Cloud all on your doorstep.

Bosley Cloud is a prominent local landmark owned by the National Trust, located on the Cheshire border and only a few miles West of the Peak District National Park boundary. It is one of the highest hills in the area, offering extensive views of the surrounding area and particularly popular with those that just love the outdoors.

Congleton provides excellent access to the North West Motorway network with nearby junctions at either Sandbach or Holmes Chapel, yet South Manchester commuters often choose this side of the town as the local railway station lies on the West Coast Main Line.
