The Property

Lower Brook Croft is a charming barn conversion with a fantastic outlook across the rolling countryside towards Kerridge Ridge. The property has been finished to an extremely high standard throughout, with close attention to every detail providing a seamless blend of the original character of the building and contemporary fittings. If further accommodation is required then there is planning permission to extend the property.

The front door with full height glazing leads into the open plan living/dining/kitchen area. The vaulted ceiling has extraordinary original exposed beams and the room is bright and airy with tiled flooring running throughout. A woodburning stove provides a focal point for the living area, whilst to the opposite end of the room is the kitchen with a range of high-quality units. Integral appliances from NEFF include an induction hob and oven with extractor hood, fridge/freezer and dishwasher. A separate utility room is accessed out of the rear door from the rear patio and offers further practical space with a range of storage and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer.

A short staircase leads up to a bedroom with fitted storage, more gorgeous beams and a fully tiled contemporary en-suite comprising walk-in shower, wash hand basin and WC. Returning to the open plan living space, a second short staircase leads down to the lower ground floor and the principal bedroom suite. Triple aspect windows flood the room with natural light and full height patio doors lead out to the gardens. The bedroom is served by a stylish fully tiled shower room with walk-in shower, wash hand basin, heated towel rail and WC. Off the bedroom and shower room is useful fitted storage space. The whole area has underfloor heating.

The property benefits from full planning approval for an additional first floor extension and a structural glazed porch (Cheshire East Council planning ref. 20/1459M). Further extension of the property should be possible subject to the necessary planning approvals.
