Description

Meadowside is an outstanding 2400 sq ft detached barn-style residence, forming part of an exclusive development in the idyllic rural hamlet of Smallwood. Surrounded by stunning Cheshire countryside, this private courtyard of four homes on a small development of fifteen offers exceptional privacy, immaculate communal grounds, and access to a serene lake with fishing rights.

Behind its striking red brick and slate-tiled exterior, the property opens into a spectacular double-height entrance hall with feature arched window and galleried landing, immediately setting the tone for the quality and style throughout.

The heart of the home is the impressive 38 foot open-plan living/dining/kitchen space, designed for modern family living and entertaining. This stunning area features zoned spaces, French doors to the garden, and a bespoke kitchen with central island, breakfast bar, Corian-style worktops, and integrated Neff appliances. A separate utility room and stylish WC add practicality, alongside a comfortable lounge with contemporary fireplace.

Upstairs, there are four generous double bedrooms. The luxurious principal suite benefits from a dressing room and en-suite shower room, while bedroom two also enjoys its own en-suite. A beautifully appointed family bathroom serves the remaining rooms, all finished with high-quality Villeroy & Boch sanitaryware and Hansgrohe fittings.

Externally, the home offers a double garage, landscaped frontage with driveway parking, and a fully enclosed rear garden with lawn and Indian stone patio areas, ideal for outdoor entertaining.

Perfectly positioned for commuters, Meadowside offers swift access to the M6, A50 and A34, with Manchester Airport around 30 minutes away. Sandbach and Congleton provide excellent amenities, schools, and leisure facilities.

A rare opportunity to acquire a luxurious countryside home combining space, style, and exclusivity.
