Sandy Brow Close

Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman

Buttercup barn itself is truly a special offering. The home enjoys a terrific arrival through the gated entrance and onto the large driveway where you can take in the large gardens and surrounding views. In addition to the driveway, further parking is available via the detached double garage.

As with everything that Chamberlain produce, the build quality is really impressive, with a generous specification and noticeable attention to detail. The living space comes to a total of 2892 square feet allowing for well proportioned rooms throughout and a terrific open plan living area which is a real highlight.

This open plan social space is separated between the dining area, kitchen and living area, and benefits from floor to ceiling window and glass doors bringing in plenty of natural light and providing access to the patio and gardens.

The stylish kitchen features a large central island with induction hob and seating area to create a sociable cooking space ideal for family life or entertaining. In addition to the ample storage units, the kitchen is fitted with fridge, freezer, wine cooler, dishwasher, warming drawer and three ovens, all pleasingly at eye level height. The utility room adjoins the kitchen and along with further storage and additional sink provides space for a washing machine and dryer.

Turning to the bedrooms and the property continues to impress. The ground floor offers three bedrooms including the principal bedroom which benefits from a dressing room / walk in wardrobe and an en suite shower room. The is a further en suite to the second bedroom whilst the third is served by the family bathroom. On the first floor, two further bedrooms can be found, both with en suite shower rooms.

Located just four miles from Tarporley High Street, this is a remarkable and hugely exiting development in Cheshire, the like of which is extremely rare. One of the most unusual aspects of the site is that every property that has been developed is unique, there are literally no two the same.

More generally, the site has an amazing and rich history which has been carefully documented and researched. Indeed, as the site was originally a purpose built stable yard it did at one point stable none other than Red Rum. The small equestrian enclosure to the right of the main entrance, really enhances the sense of authentic rural living.

This sense of character has been respected, echoed and enhanced, with the development having a strong aesthetic appeal, with white railings creating a lovely visual focal point. The overall impression is that of a hugely appealing historical rural hamlet which has been painstakingly restored using high grade building materials and quality craftsmen. There is no doubt in my mind that that these homes will provide a unique lifestyle proposition, which will be savoured and enjoyed by the eventual purchasers.

The site forms part of Cotebrook and has a range of interesting amenities on the doorstep that include a polo club, the Hollies Farm Shop, Pesto Italian Tapas restaurant, the Fishpool pub and Tarporley Garden Centre. A little distance further away is Cotebrook Parish Church, an iconic local landmark.

Chamberlain are an award winning developer with a strong track record of high quality and unique developments throughout Cheshire, with a particular specialism in the restoration of historic buildings. It has been a pleasure to work with them and see this site develop with such thought, care, skill and dedication.

For a personal conversation about this site, or view, please contact myself or a colleague at the Gascoigne Halman Tarporley office.
