Description

Nestled away on a private road, this historic detached stone farmhouse, believed to have origins in the early 1800s, presents a unique investment opportunity. Set within expansive grounds that offer breathtaking views of Congleton Edge, the property is both secluded and tranquil, making it an ideal canvas for development. The home showcases period charm and architectural features while providing adaptable living spaces suitable for modern lifestyles. The ground floor comprises three distinct reception rooms that can easily be transformed into multifunctional areas or revitalized with contemporary styling, alongside a generous dining kitchen with potential for reconfiguration. An adjoining conservatory enhances the light-filled interior and connects beautifully to the wraparound gardens. Upstairs offers three spacious bedrooms, each boasting picturesque vistas over the Cheshire landscape, paired with a family bathroom. This layout not only retains the character of the original home but also lends itself well to further expansion or modification (subject to planning), giving savvy investors an attractive chance to craft a bespoke residence tailored to modern needs.
