Description

Occupying a wonderfully private and elevated position on one of Mobberley’s quiet country lanes, 3 Spring Bank is an attractive and extended end Georgian cottage, combining period character with generous, versatile accommodation and an exceptional semi-rural lifestyle.
The house enjoys a particularly appealing setting, perched to take full advantage of wonderful open views to all sides, while retaining an impressive degree of privacy. Extending to more than 2,000 sq ft in total, including the outbuildings, the property offers well-proportioned accommodation arranged over three floors. The ground floor includes a generous lounge, dining room and an impressive breakfast kitchen, together with a boot room and entrance hall. Across the upper floors are three/four bedrooms, with the fourth bedroom currently utilised as a home office, including a principal bedroom with walk-in wardrobe and en suite, complemented by a family bathroom.
Outside is where 3 Spring Bank really comes into its own. To the front, the beautifully landscaped garden has been designed with entertaining in mind, providing a choice of seating and relaxation areas together with space for outdoor cooking—an idyllic setting for long summer lunches and evenings with family and friends. A garage and driveway provide off-road parking to the front of the plot.
To the rear is an attractive courtyard setting with a collection of useful outbuildings, offering considerable versatility for storage, hobbies or other ancillary uses, together with a convenient ground-floor outside WC.
Adding enormously to the lifestyle appeal, directly across the very quiet lane is a parcel of rented land extending to approximately 2.5 acres, which is available for a minimal rent and includes two stables. Currently enjoyed by the owners for keeping sheep and chickens, the land presents a wonderful opportunity for those seeking a taste of the good life, particularly those with equestrian or smallholding interests, without compromising on everyday convenience. A brook meanders through the land, complete with a bridge, creating a particularly charming and picturesque environment.
The property also benefits from a newly installed, fully compliant water treatment system, providing reassurance for prospective purchasers.
Despite its peaceful rural feel, the property is superbly positioned for enjoying everything the sought-after Cheshire village of Mobberley has to offer. Mobberley railway station is within approximately a 10-minute walk, providing excellent connectivity, while the village itself offers a superb range of amenities, well-regarded schools and easy access to nearby towns and the wider transport network.
An immensely appealing country home offering privacy, far-reaching views and character, together with versatile three/four-bedroom accommodation, excellent outbuildings and outstanding outdoor space, including approximately 2.5 acres of rented land with stabling—a rare lifestyle opportunity in a brilliant Mobberley setting.
