## Description

The existing property at ‘Whitelands’ extends to circa 4700 sq ft set in gardens of around 4 acres. Positioned down a private drive on an exclusive road with some beautiful neighbouring properties, the character & lifestyle that Barthomley village has to offer is nothing short of exceptional. Take a moment to view our video tour to fully appreciate the property, grounds and everything on offer!

Internally, the property is prepared for progression of the consent & exceptional PP has been granted for the extension and refurbishment of the existing dwelling to nearly double the size to provide over 9,000 sqft of accommodation with a southerly rear aspect (Cheshire East Planning Ref: 20/1809N).

Externally, there are extensive and incredibly private grounds comprising long private driveway with large turning circle, expansive tiered lawns, former Tennis / croquet lawn, large area of mature woodland with woodland walk, former orchard, kitchen garden and a large pond. It offers a private position yet within the Village Conservation Area and a short walk from the historic village core and renowned White Lion Pub. The gardens to the rear are South-facing with stunning views across its own grounds and Green Belt landscape/countryside beyond.
