Description

Stephenson Browne are excited to present this extremely rare opportunity, this exceptional, and rather unique semi detached cottage dates all the way back to the late 1800's where it was originally built as a working Coach house and has now been completely transformed into a spectacular home! Still retaining the original cottage feel with a modern twist, this property really is a huge credit to the current owners.

Sitting within a generous size plot and surrounded by picturesque fields, it is the perfect tranquil setting with the benefit of being within walking distance of Congleton Town Centre, Astbury Mere Country Park and the popular village of Astbury with the impressive Glebe Farm. You are also a short drive from numerous good primary and secondary schools, Congleton train station and great commuter links to surrounding towns and cities. A perfect location, providing the best of both worlds to suit all needs.

Internally through the front porch you will find the downstairs WC and a storage cupboard, from here you have the spacious and welcoming reception hallway with under stair storage, providing you with access to all downstairs accommodation and the first floor. Continuing downstairs you have the delightful lounge featuring a bare brick fireplace with a wood burning stove and genuine oak flooring, the separate dining room/sunroom with full view overlooking the garden and fields beyond, complimented by wooden French doors and a stylish fitted breakfast kitchen that will completely blow you away with a separate utility room and sliding glass doors leading out onto the patio area.

To the first floor is a brilliant sized master bedroom with en suite and walk in wardrobe, three further good sized bedrooms, an extensive landing and a luxury spa like four piece suite main bathroom.

Externally the property sits within beautiful laid to lawn gardens bordered by a range of mature trees and bushes giving extra privacy and is surrounded by stunning open countryside. The property is accessed via a private drive (Stony Lane) that leads directly up to the property, to the front is a driveway big enough to fit at least five vehicles followed by a wooden gate that allows entry into the property. The garden space consists of a paved patio area that wraps around the side of the home bordered by potted plants, shrubs and flowers being the perfect place for entertaining and sitting out in the summer months. The garden wraps all the way around the property with the addition of a secret garden area accessed via a wooden archway.

A note to add: Around an acre of land is available to rent adjacent to the property with direct access available.
