Description
A lovely, double-fronted, Georgian style, stone farmhouse standing in just over 3 acres of land, with a large, attached barn ripe for conversion into additional living space. (Subject to PP and BRs).
The house would benefit from updating to meet current lifestyles, but as it retains most of the original features it gives a rare opportunity to incorporate these into any new design.
Conversion of the attached barn could provide further stunning views over the rural surroundings and increase the size of the house by almost 100%, thus providing significantly more living space.
Other existing, stone built and wooden, outbuildings, surrounding the courtyard, with a footprint of over 60m could also be converted to cater for a variety of uses (subject to PP and BRs).
The property has not been on the open market for about 100 years, having been in the same family for three generations.
The house has fabulous open views of the countryside whilst being just a short drive from Macclesfield.
In brief, from the cobbled courtyard, the back door opens onto the dining room. This room has beautiful exposed beams and original wooden door lintels. The oil-fired central heating boiler is in the corner of this room.
An original farmhouse door leads through to the main lounge, which has a functional, feature fireplace, attractive original sash windows to the front aspect and original cupboards built in either side of the fireplace.
An original door opens from the lounge into a second sitting room with a lovely period fireplace and original sash windows to the front aspect.
From the dining room, another original farmhouse door opens onto the kitchen, which is fitted with a range of units, washing machine etc. and has a large window overlooking the garden and land.
The first floor is reached from the dining room. There is a large landing with loft access and doors to each of the three large double bedrooms and the family bathroom, which has a three-piece suite and over-bath shower. Bedroom 1 has floor to ceiling fitted wardrobes. Bedroom 2 has the original fireplace. Bedroom 3 houses the hot-water cylinder/airing cupboard.
The property has a septic tank, is warmed by oil fired central heating and is on mains water supply. The fireplace in the main lounge is functional.
Formal south and west-facing gardens frame the house. There are mature fruit trees, hedging, shrubs and bulbs. There are two greenhouses in need of some repair, but functional. As the house is slightly elevated, the wonderful views are open, but the garden is private.
Outbuilding
A large stone two-storey barn with fabulous original exposed beams adjoins the house. This would be ideal for conversion into living accommodation (subject to PP and BRs)
There are a number of other outbuildings, mostly stone and some timber, all set within a wonderful cobbled courtyard with gates giving separate pedestrian and vehicular access to the property. There is a spring-water source available from the courtyard, with the original pump.
With access through the central outbuilding, there is a large wooden shed.
As one turns into Kerridge Road off Rainow Road, there is a dropped kerb giving access to the field. This could give further scope for vehicular access to the property if desired.
