Millfield Cottage is a spacious, attached period home set well back from the lane in a large southwest-facing garden. The house offers generous room sizes across two floors — two principal bedrooms plus a ground-floor bedroom/study, two reception rooms, conservatory, utility and a large attached garage — giving clear scope for family living or flexible use.
The plot and setting are major strengths: a sweeping tarmac drive with ample parking and turning, private lawns, specimen trees and a sheltered garden outlook across countryside. Broadband and mobile signal are strong despite the hamlet location, and nearby Nantwich and Crewe provide rail and road links for commuting and services.
Important practical points: the property requires renovation and some updating throughout; walls are solid brick with no assumed cavity insulation; heating is oil-fired via boiler and radiators which can be costly and requires ongoing servicing; and the cottage lies in a high flood-risk area, which materially affects insurance and future repair planning. Services include a Tricel treatment plant (installed 2025) and mains water and electricity, but buyers should verify all services and systems prior to commitment.
This house will suit buyers looking for character, space and a large private garden who are prepared to invest in modernisation. Cash buyers or purchasers with renovation experience will find the layout and garden particularly appealing. The property’s council tax (Band F) and flood risk are key considerations for budget planning.
