Fox Covert Lodge is a character-filled detached home set on a very large plot between Norley and Oakmere, with uninterrupted views of fields and woodland. The house offers three double bedrooms, two bathrooms including a master ensuite, and generous living space arranged in a traditional layout that suits family life and countryside living.
The heart of the home is the open-plan kitchen/dining/family room, opening onto a large wrap-around covered verandah for all-weather outdoor living. Mature cottage gardens, a sheltered lawn, greenhouse and planted borders give plenty of private outside space; a prominent mature oak and ancient trees frame the plot.
A separate double garage with a powered workshop/annexe above provides useful storage and flexible space currently used as a studio. Practical details to note: main heating is oil-fired boiler and radiators, glazing was fitted before 2002, broadband speeds are very slow and council tax is described as quite expensive.
This home will suit buyers seeking rural seclusion with good transport links nearby (stations within a mile) and access to Delamere Forest. It also offers scope for improvement or modernisation to increase energy efficiency and connectivity for modern working-from-home requirements.
