Agents Remarks

The Grey House stands in a fine location and was once one of the two public houses within the village of Hankelow, known as The Greyhound. It ceased to be a public house in 1900 and has subsequently served as a private residence.

The property in very recent years has been comprehensively improved to the very highest of standards and exudes significant character combined with great style and appeal. Hankelow is a lovely village that is well known for its range of period and calibre housing, village green with duck pond, village hall and community owned White Lion Pub Restaurant and Hotel.

The village sits between the charming South Cheshire village of Audlem and historic Nantwich.
