Available for online auction on January 21st, this property presents a unique investment opportunity: the conversion of the former Ridley Reservoir into a luxurious subterranean residence. With full planning permission already secured, the project allows for a creative vision to come to life over 8,300 sq ft across multiple levels. Substantial preliminary groundwork is completed, including structural reinforcement and partial excavation for leisure amenities such as a gym and swimming pool.
The current plans feature an expansive open-plan living area, four en-suite bedrooms including an impressive master suite, and various leisure facilities spread over lower levels. The groundwork has been laid—literally and figuratively—ensuring clarity on structural integrity and design feasibility for prospective developers.
Potential buyers can consider a phased approach to development, prioritizing the completion of essential living spaces first while later expanding into leisure areas. Additionally, flexible zoning may permit alternative usages such as wellness retreats or boutique accommodations, contingent upon necessary consents.
This is a rare offering in Cheshire that combines modern architectural ambition with investment potential in a tranquil rural setting, making it an intriguing choice for innovative developers.
