Set on an established 0.43-acre plot in a peaceful lane, this detached stone cottage offers generous family accommodation and extensive outbuildings. The house provides four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a bright first-floor studio, plus three reception rooms and a large breakfast kitchen with adjoining utility/boot room. South-facing rear gardens, a block‑paved driveway and two vehicular accesses add everyday practicality.
The property delivers immediate liveability with strong scope to modernise or extend (subject to planning) — the spacious floorplan and 802 sq ft of outbuildings (workshops, stores, garage and two stables) suit hobbies, home business or equestrian use. The plot’s rural views and privacy are major appeal points in this sought-after location near Delamere Forest and local rail links.
Be aware of a few material considerations: the house is period-built with sandstone/limestone walls likely without cavity insulation, council tax is described as expensive, and broadband speeds are very slow which may affect home-working. Services include private drainage and electric heating with an air-source heat pump; verify specific running costs and servicing history.
Overall this is a versatile, characterful home for buyers who value space, seclusion and outbuilding utility, and who are comfortable with some upgrading and rural-service realities. It will suit families, hobbyists or buyers seeking a countryside base with scope to enhance value over time.
