A rare opportunity on Hobcroft Lane: this expansive Edwardian-style detached bungalow sits on about 1 acre and includes a detached coach house with garaging and first-floor rooms. The single-storey main house offers generous living spaces — lounge, dining room, Aga/morning room kitchen, utility, office and three bedrooms — and retains period character while presenting clear potential for modernisation.
The plot and outbuilding are the standout assets. A gated carriage driveway leads to mature, landscaped gardens backing onto open countryside; the coach house provides substantial ancillary accommodation or redevelopment potential (subject to planning). The location is peaceful and rural yet under ten minutes’ drive from Knutsford, Wilmslow and Hale, with excellent local schools nearby.
Important practical points: any remodelling, extension or rebuilding will require planning permission; the property has been owned since 1978 and will benefit from updating and repair in places. Broadband and mobile signal are average, and council tax is described as quite expensive — factors to weigh if working from home or budgeting ongoing costs. Viewings are recommended to appreciate the scale and setting.
This home suits buyers seeking a substantial single-storey property with land — families wanting space and privacy, downsizers who need ground-floor living with generous storage, or buyers considering development/rebuild options (all subject to consents). The combination of plot, coach house and countryside position makes this a distinctive, flexible proposition.
