Description

This charming detached farmhouse, steeped in period character, is nestled within nearly half an acre of gated gardens on the periphery of town. Its prime location offers the advantage of both tranquility and accessibility to local amenities. With spacious interiors and extensive grounds, the property presents considerable renovation and investment opportunities for those looking to create their ideal home or capitalize on its potential. Spanning just under 3,000 square feet over two levels, the main house features five bedrooms and three bathrooms (two of which are en-suite), along with three generously sized reception areas. The drawing room and dining room boast high ceilings and original architectural details, while the rear family room—currently a large open space connected to the kitchen—could easily be transformed into an expansive open-plan living area, catering to modern preferences for flexible layouts. A notable feature includes a sizable cellar with an original stone wine store, adding charm and practicality. The property is complemented by a range of structures that enhance its appeal. A large detached coach house at the rear includes a double garage outfitted with an EV charging point and a versatile first-floor room that could serve as a gym or entertainment space. Additionally, there are ground floor rooms that could be converted into a small annex or office with further adjustments. An adjacent derelict barn offers even more potential for transformation, whether that be for additional living space or outbuildings. Access to the property is private and secure, featuring remote-controlled entry gates shared with a neighboring development. The driveway leads directly to the house and garaging while providing easy access around the side barn. The gardens largely consist of well-maintained lawns adorned with a water fountain and pond at the front. Investors will appreciate that several housing schemes are planned for this area of Knutsford, indicating growth potential in property values. A new development has been approved nearby, enhancing the appeal of this already desirable location. Importantly, fields behind the farmhouse remain protected as greenbelt land, ensuring continued privacy and natural surroundings. This property offers not just a residence but also a canvas for creative improvement—a rare opportunity in an emerging neighborhood where thoughtful renovations could lead to significant returns on investment in years to come.
