An exceptional Grade II listed farmhouse dating from 1713, offering roughly 2,300 sq ft of flexible family accommodation across multiple floors. The house occupies a large plot directly opposite Davyhulme Park Golf Course and includes a spacious garden, off-street parking and two brick outbuildings — ideal for storage or conversion (subject to consents).
Four double bedrooms and two bathrooms sit above well-proportioned ground-floor rooms: two large reception rooms, a study, an office, a breakfast kitchen, utility and an external WC. There is practical cellar space accessed from the study. Broadband and mobile signals are excellent and the property is well placed for good primary and secondary schools and local transport links.
The house is offered chain-free and has considerable potential, but it will need selective modernisation throughout. As a Grade II listed building, any external or significant internal alterations will require listed-building consent and may limit options and add cost. Council tax banding is high and purchasers should allow budget for sympathetic renovation works.
For a buyer who values historic character and space — and is comfortable with the listed status and refurbishment — this property presents a rare opportunity to create a distinctive family home in a very affluent neighbourhood.
