In 3.84 acre, enjoying wonderful open rural views and located in a tranquil location, a beautifully crafted four double bedroom, three bathroom, three reception room barn conversion with double garage

Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman

If you are seeking a tranquil and inspiring location, which combines the best elements of semi rural living, this beautifully positioned barn has a lot to offer.

The approach is in itself impressive and also relaxing, with the barn being accessed via a long tree lined access known as Douglas Lane. This sets the ideal context for this rural retreat and leads up a short drive to the original farmhouse and two unique barn conversions, one of which is the subject property.

The real stand out feature here is the land ¿ a little under four acres in total and this incorporates both formal gardens and paddocks. So if you love the outdoors and your own sense of space, this is an excellent proposition, a genuine chance to not just enjoy a view but also to own it. Also due to the openness of the location, terrific colourful skylines, sunsets and sunrises can be enjoyed at different times of the year.

The rear garden is a particular feature of this property being laid mainly to lawn with fully stocked mature borders, vegetable patch and good sized patio area with breath taking undisturbed views. There is both vehicular and pedestrian access to the paddock from the front of the property.

The property itself is a much treasured, hugely appealing and charismatic barn conversion with a range of features that make it a really wonderful family home. There is certainly plenty of room, with circa 2426 square feet of space and an extremely flexible layout that can be adapted to suit differing needs.

There are numerous features of note. These include a large bespoke breakfast kitchen / family room with hardwood worktops, a living room with feature fireplace and double doors onto the garden as well as the increasingly important home office, ideal for working from home. At first floor level each bedroom has its own character and the four double rooms are complemented by two en suites (one jack and jill) in addition to a family bathroom.

The added bonus to this barn is the large double garage with loft room over. This as it presently stands is a great building ideal for cars or general storage. It does however offer enormous potential (subject to necessary consents) to be used as a small annexe, games room, art studio, craft area, home office or a concept that combines a few of these elements.

This is a superbly balanced offering. A house of character, but with tasteful contemporary quality. A terrific amount of land, without being overly onerous to manage. And wonderful tranquillity, yet close to Nantwich and Tarporley. It is a most welcome addition to the market and a rare buying opportunity.

For a personal description of the property or to arrange a viewing, please contact myself or the Gascoigne Halman Tarporley office.
