Description

Occupying a privileged position in the Cheshire countryside, Cherry Nurseries House offers a rare blend of luxurious living, privacy, and convenience. Situated on Kay Lane, just moments from Lymm village and within easy reach of Altrincham, the property enjoys approximately 9 acres of grounds and includes a detached barn with full planning permission for conversion to a three-bedroom dwelling (circa 2,300 sq ft).
From the moment you step through the grand entrance hall, it’s clear this is a home of scale and quality. Leading off the hallway is a study, a guest W.C., and access to the principal reception areas.
The formal lounge is a welcoming space with a feature log burner, integrated media wall, and French doors opening directly to the garden, ideal for both quiet evenings and entertaining. Across the hallway, a dining room flows into the impressive kitchen/diner – the true heart of the home. Here you’ll find a Bora induction hob, two double ovens, Calacatta marble worktops, an integrated dishwasher, and a Quooker boiling water tap.
Just off the kitchen is the bar room, perfect for hosting, complete with a second media wall and dishwasher. From here, a utility room houses integrated washer/dryer units and provides access to the garage. Above the garage, accessed via an internal staircase, is a fully equipped gym.
Upstairs, the first floor features four double bedrooms:
The main suite boasts fitted robes, a coffee station, dressing area, ensuite bathroom, and access to a private balcony overlooking the grounds.
The second bedroom also benefits from an ensuite, fitted robes, and balcony access.
Bedrooms four and five both include fitted wardrobes and share a well-appointed family bathroom.
On the second floor, a large third bedroom includes a bespoke shoe wall, dressing room, and ensuite. Completing this level is a dedicated cinema room, which could equally serve as an additional bedroom or multi-purpose space.
Additional features include:
Underfloor heating throughout the ground floor
A state-of-the-art AV system, enabling control of lighting, audio, and media via smartphone
Extensive gardens, lawns, and open land totaling approximately 9 acres
Air Con units aslo fitted in the Cinema room, Gym and 3rd Bedroom
The detached barn on the grounds already benefits from full planning permission for conversion into a three-bedroom, circa 2,300 sq ft home — perfect for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or potential investment.
Situated in a peaceful, semi-rural setting, the property is ideally located just a short drive from Lymm village and Altrincham, with easy access to motorway links and excellent local schooling. Nearby countryside walks and bridleways further enhance the lifestyle on offer.
