This property presents an exceptional opportunity for prospective buyers to craft their ideal home on a generous plot in the desirable rural setting of Lower Peover village, South Manchester. Nestled along The Cobbles, the location boasts proximity to local landmarks such as the beloved Bells of Peover Pub and the historic St Oswald's Church. The site encompasses nearly 3 acres with expansive gardens and a paddock that gently slopes towards the Peover Eye River.
The existing structure is a sizable family home built in the 1970s, accompanied by a charming thatched cottage, which currently requires significant repair. Despite their condition, the site benefits from approved plans by Cheshire West Borough Council for a considerable remodelling and enlargement scheme under permitted development rights. This approval allows for a transformation into a much larger residence of approximately 9,000 square feet (gross external).
Additionally, there remains scope for further planning applications tailored to individual buyer preferences, including potential demolition of the current house while retaining the thatched cottage as part of any future proposals; this cottage is viewed as a Heritage asset within its conservation area.
The freehold site includes expert guidance from a reputable local planning consultant who can advise interested parties on various possibilities, such as new access points or driveways enhancing the estate's approach alongside the river.
Overall, this property stands as an unmissable investment opportunity for those looking to capitalize on its substantial development potential while embracing scenic rural living.
