Chester Road, Alpraham, Tarporley

Set in 1.47 acre, a fantastic project for ambitious private individual or seasoned developer comprising a building plot with planning permission granted and appealing cottage in need of refurbishment.
Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman

Alpraham has been transformed in the last ten years with extensive residential development and increasingly good amenities, with the village pub thriving and a state of the art new village hall in the final stages of construction. The village allows for easy access to commuter routes throughout Cheshire, a short drive or bus trip to the highly regarded local schools in Tarporley and countryside walks towards Bunbury.

This is a highly unusual property with tremendous scope, making it an ideal project for either a ambitious private individual or seasoned developer. The overall site size is 1.47 acre.
The scope to improve comes in two formats. The first is by refurbishing and enhancing what is a hugely appealing and distinctive cottage and is packed full of character and appeal. Whilst updating is required, the fundamentals are very good, with pleasing room sizes and ample flexibility.

The second element of investment interest is the opportunity to build a house! The side garden to the house was granted planning permission by Cheshire East on 30th May 2024 reference 24/0458N for the construction of one custom self build dwelling. Full details available on the CEC planning portal.
There is also a long paddock, double garage and store, further areas of formal garden and ample driveway parking.

This is such a rare combination and the whole is for sale with no ongoing chain and if required, quick legal completion available.
