Description

This Grade II listed Georgian villa is a significant historical property set within 1.24 acres of private grounds, providing a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. Originally constructed in 1835 and attributed to John Douglas Senior, the residence features a remarkable blend of original architecture and modern updates while still offering substantial scope for further enhancement. The well-appointed reception hall showcases period details, including original marble flooring and an impressive staircase. The home includes multiple spacious reception rooms, highlighted by a light-filled Garden Room overlooking the lush grounds. The open-plan kitchen, located in the former council chambers, is designed for both family functionality and entertaining, featuring bespoke cabinetry and direct access to outdoor areas. With seven bedrooms—including a luxurious principal suite and several guest accommodations—this property can effortlessly adapt to various lifestyle needs. Additional opportunities exist in the North Wing, which has planning permission for conversion into residential units, potentially expanding accommodation capacity up to 13 bedrooms. Though much restoration has been done—including updated plumbing and electrical systems—there remains potential for personal touch-ups or modern improvements. The expansive gardens not only provide privacy but also enhance the appeal of outdoor living space. Overall, this property offers an exceptional blend of historical charm and renovation potential in a prime Cheshire village location.
