Oulton Lowe Green is a picture‑perfect Grade II thatched cottage set beside a 3.4‑acre paddock, offering a rare combination of historic character and recently updated comfort. Dating to around 1590, the timber frames, exposed beams and original features create a warm, storybook interior while substantial grounds provide privacy, grazing potential or scope for a wildflower orchard.
The house has been sensitively renovated in 2023–24: the kitchen and bathroom were refitted, a new boiler installed in 2024, and internal changes have opened up light and flow. Practical additions include off‑street parking for several cars and planning permission in place for a timber‑framed triple garage and a kitchen extension with an added fourth bedroom and bathroom — useful for growing families or those wanting to enhance value.
Buyers should note the property’s listed status. Grade II listing protects historic fabric and will complicate alterations and maintenance; specialist consent and potentially higher repair costs are likely. The cottage also has low to mid ceilings and some smaller room proportions consistent with its age, and council tax is described as quite expensive.
Set in an affluent, low‑crime rural hamlet with fast broadband and convenient access to Tarporley and surrounding countryside, this home will suit buyers seeking a characterful family house or a stewardship lifestyle: someone prepared to care for a historic home, enjoy substantial land and capitalise on permitted extension potential.
