5 bedroom house

A detached former farmhouse in an idyllic rural setting, with origins that can be traced back to 1845. The property was originally part of the historic Norley Hall estate and is now being offered for sale for the first time in over 55 years.

The sale of Low Farm represents a rare buying opportunity and chance to buy a home with great long term investment potential. This unique property was originally part of the Norley Estate that comprised almost 1200 acres of prime Cheshire farmland, 15 farmsteads, 12 cottages and the impressive Norley Hall. The estate was sold in 1914 following the death of the squire and the farm was subsequently acquired by our clients family in 1968.

It is in a beautiful location, on the edge of Delamere Forest with rural views to the rear over Greenbelt farmland. The house itself has an interesting and characterful layout arranged over three levels, reflecting the undulating site and to maximise the views at the rear.
