Description
An incredibly rare opportunity to purchase a FOUR BEDROOM DETACHED FARMHOUSE situated on a plot of over 2.5 ACRES, with a HUGE BRICK-BUILT BARN which has the potential to be converted to a dwelling (subject to planning permission and building regulations etc).
Nestled amongst countryside and accessed via a shared, private driveway, this self-built home offers a very unique opportunity, having had one careful owner since new! Although requiring modernisation, the property occupies a prime plot close to Mow Cop, with a huge amount of development potential for both the home itself, and the sizeable barn to the rear.
An entrance hallway leads to the lounge, separate kitchen, spacious dining room, a useful utility room and a ground floor shower room, whilst upstairs there are four bedrooms and the family bathroom. There are currently double doors between the principal bedroom and the third bedroom, which acts as a dressing, but could easily be altered to be its own bedroom. There is also a generous storage cupboard to the main bedroom, with the potential to create an en-suite.
The property sits on a plot of over 2.5 acres, which is mostly lawned and borders a nearby brook, with woodland and fields beyond. The real surprise here is the detached barn - a huge space which would be ripe for conversion to a further dwelling, subject to planning permission/building regulations. Built with this in mind, the joists in the roof space include an opening for a potential staircase to the first floor.
Mow Lane is an ideal location within Mow Cop, surrounded by countryside but retaining good transport links to commuting routes such as the M6, A500 and A34. Amenities within Mow Cop village, Kidsgrove, Alsager and Congleton are within easy reach. There are also several schools nearby including Woodcock's Well C of E Primary School and Castle Primary School.
An incredible opportunity which is not to be missed! Please contact Stephenson Browne to arrange your viewing.
