Description

*STUNNING HOME/ 1.5 ACRE GARDEN/ STABLE BLOCK/ ADDITTIONAL PLOT 4.99 ACRES

Ivy Old Cottage is a delightful detached home built in 1850 that occupies a sought-after semi-rural location between Knutsford and Over Peover. The property stands within generous sized plot (1.5acres) incorporating landscaped gardens, stable block, and a large pond. An additional plot, adjacent land (4.99 acres).

This is a golden opportunity to purchase this truly stunning home, now on the market for the first time since 1999. The current owners extended the original home, refurbished and remodelled between 1999-2001.

Behind its attractive façade is a wonderful expanse of unique, characterful accommodation that exudes a cosy atmosphere and includes excellent reception space and four bedrooms. The highlight is the impressive principle bedroom with a balcony overlooking the rear garden and land.

Please refer to the floor plan to view the level of accommodation this home has to offer.
