## Description

AN ELEGANT, BEAUTIFULLY APPOINTED, DETACHED GEORGIAN FORMER VICARAGE WITH EXCELLENT GARAGING AND GENEROUS GARDENS, ON THE EDGE OF THE VILLAGE

DESCRIPTION

The Old Vicarage is a handsome period property and was rebuilt in 1813 on the site of the original 16th century vicarage. The property is constructed of brick with rendered elevations under a tiled roof and is not listed. It is approached via a stone set drive through brick gate pillars opening to a gravel parking and turning area against the South front. The drive continues through double gates to a large parking area and the garage block. Of late the property has undergone a scheme of modernisation, albeit retaining the original character and now offers extremely generous family accommodation arranged on two floors only and extending to about 4,650 square feet. It is a highly individual and distinguished six bedroomed detached Georgian house with well proportioned rooms full of period features plus wonderful mature gardens, providing an idyllic setting for a growing family to enjoy village life. Internally this is a house of outstanding stature, quality, warmth, character and presence. Each room has its own personality and range of distinctive features and on the first floor there is also scope for a future buyer to integrate their own ideas and style. The gardens and grounds incorporate formal lawns, herbaceous and flower borders, rhododendrons, mature trees and a large York stone flagged terrace. They have matured over the years and provide a magnificent setting for the house.

LOCATION & AMENITIES

Wybunbury village lies three miles East of Nantwich and recorded as being one of the earliest settlements in Cheshire. Well known for Wybunbury Moss, a sight of special scientific interest and the leaning tower. The famous Wybunbury Tower, known as the "leaning tower of South Cheshire" is all that remains of the late 15th century church demolished in 1833. The tower now belongs to the people of Wybunbury, who formed a trust to save it and its bells in 1983. The village boasts St. Chads Church, two public houses, post office/village store and the excellent Wybunbury Delves CE primary school. Crewe station (London Euston 90 minutes, Manchester 40 minutes) is 4 miles and the M6 motorway (junction 16) 5 miles. Nantwich offers a more comprehensive range of services with high street retailers, banks, restaurants, leisure facilities and supermarkets. There are numerous sports facilities in the area including tennis, bowling, cricket, football, rugby, running and cycling clubs. There are two 18 hole golf courses at nearby Whitchurch. Equestrian interests are vast in the area including British eventing at Kelsall and Somerford Park and racing enjoyed at Aintree, Chester, Bangor on Dee and Haydock Park.

- **Target investor price (1%):** £97,500

*Gross yield = annual rent as % of price (no costs). Cost-to-rent = price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables); under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed. Cashflow = rent − mortgage − 10% maintenance − £25/mo compliance; assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term. ROI = annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).*
