Overton Green

A beautifully renovated and greatly improved Georgian farmhouse with land and equestrian facilities, set in approximately 13 acres within sought-after Cheshire countryside.

Description

Dating from around 1905, Overton Green Farm is an elegant bedroom Georgian farmhouse occupying a prominent position on the edge of Smallwood village.

The house has been carefully renovated and remodelled over the last six years by the current owner to create a home that offers well-proportioned accommodation arranged over two floors, with large windows taking in open views across its own
pasture and surrounding farmland.

Internally, the property retains much of its original character – including decorative fireplaces, coved ceilings and tiled flooring – alongside modern improvements such as double glazing and a replaced roof (2016).

The ground floor comprises an entrance hall, two spacious reception rooms, a large farmhouse kitchen, boot room, utility, and wet room. Upstairs are four bedrooms, all having ensuites.

Approached via a gated entrance onto a long gravelled drive that leads to the front of the house, and continues to the side where there is extensive parking and a large steel-framed barn to the rear that has been fitted out to an exceptional standard
offering significant storage and stabling with 7 boxes and potential for more.

Formal lawned gardens flank the house, enclosed by mature hedges and trees. Beyond are post-and-railed paddocks and a large pasture field containing a natural pond. The property extends in all to about 12.09 acres (4.89 ha).

The principal outbuilding – a versatile 100 ft × 60 ft steel portal-frame barn – provides seven 12 × 12 ft stables, a tack room, feed room and WC, together with mains water and electricity. It is ideal for private or commercial equestrian use
(subject to any necessary consents). The land is classified Grade III on the Agricultural Land Classification Map and is
suitable for grazing and grass production.
