Description
This three-bedroom farmhouse is set in a rural Cheshire location and comes with approximately 7.5 acres of land, a range of barns and outbuildings, and no onward chain.

Any refurbishment, redevelopment or conversion would be subject to the relevant planning permissions and consents, which prospective purchasers should investigate with the planning authority. The property is marketed by Meller Braggins, Knutsford.

Confidence: MEDIUM
Thorn Tree Farm offers a distinctive rural project: a traditional three-bedroom farmhouse with three reception rooms, around 7.5 acres and substantial barns and outbuildings. The interiors are dated and the house is described as needing complete refurbishment, giving scope to create a substantial country home; the barns may offer further possibilities, subject to planning and building-condition checks. The established garden and broad rural setting add to the appeal, while the photographed exterior appears broadly intact.
Key opportunities
- Rework the farmhouse’s dated finishes, including the photographed kitchen and bathroom, to create a home tailored to your specification.
- Explore the substantial barns and outbuildings as possible conversion candidates, subject to planning consent and checks on their condition.
- Make the most of the approximately 7.5-acre rural setting, established garden and farmhouse character.
Key risks
- A whole-house refurbishment will require careful coordination across multiple areas, with scope and programme dependent on the condition uncovered during detailed inspection.
- Roof and structural condition cannot be confirmed from the photographs; inspect the farmhouse and outbuildings, and investigate the standing water and uneven-looking courtyard hardstanding.
