Positioned on the outskirts of Astbury Mere Country Park, the site commands impressive views over the picturesque lake, which was formed in a former sand quarry and is now complemented by extensive landscaping and over thirty-four acres of open space. The serene lake is not only a natural asset but also serves as a shared amenity with a sailing club, making it an attractive spot for leisure activities like walking and sailing.
Astbury itself is a quaint village in Cheshire, surrounded by beautiful countryside. It features one of the few remaining village greens in England and is dominated by a stunning fourteenth-century Gothic church that enhances its historic charm. The location offers easy access to Congleton town center, which provides comprehensive amenities and services.
For investors and developers, this property holds exceptional potential due to its favorable placement just south of Congleton. The area boasts excellent transport links with quick access to major roadways connecting to both Stoke-on-Trent and Manchester via nearby junctions. Additionally, Congleton Railway Station on the West Coast Main Line facilitates efficient commuting options.
This unique combination of location benefits and redevelopment potential creates an intriguing opportunity for those looking to invest in residential development within a picturesque setting surrounded by natural beauty and community charm.
