Description
The ground floor has been arranged to suit both everyday life and more formal occasions. An 18ft living room provides a comfortable focal point, while the 15ft dining room connects naturally for entertaining. A separate 17ft sitting room offers further space to relax, each principal room benefiting from a zoned heating system, plus the warmth and atmosphere of two log burners. The 15ft kitchen and family room forms the centre of the house, designed for informal dining and day to day use, supported by a utility room and cloakroom.
Upstairs, the main bedroom includes an ensuite, with two further well proportioned double bedrooms served by a family bathroom. The house is presented to a high standard throughout and benefits from a Honeywell Evohome multi zone heating system, allowing efficient control across the accommodation.
The detached annexe introduces additional potential, subject to any necessary consents. Currently arranged with a utility, store, double garage and an impressive 20ft first floor room, it could lend itself to ancillary accommodation or workspace.
The gardens are mature and carefully arranged, incorporating lawn, stocked beds and areas that encourage wildlife. From here, Audlem village is within a short walk, offering a range of independent shops, cafes and essential amenities, all contributing to its reputation as one of south Cheshire’s most sought after settings.
