Description

This impressive six bedroom detached family house offers spacious and versatile accommodation extending to approximately 3,500 square feet.

Originating from the 1930s, we understand, the house has been substantially extended over more recent years and now forms a wonderful and adaptable family home with large open-plan kitchen, complemented by three excellent reception rooms. Completing the ground floor accommodation are a useful study, rear boot room, utility room and WC. The first floor features six well-proportioned bedrooms, three of which benefit from en-suite facilities, making it ideal for growing families.

The house is set within superb, established gardens and grounds extending to 1.89 acres or thereabouts and incorporates a useful detached timber outbuilding ideal for use as a summer house/workshop. The house is set well back from the road behind a gravelled driveway that incorporates a turning circle. Beyond the formal gardens is a pleasant area of mature woodland, which provides a fantastic recreational area.

Cranage is a popular and sought after rural village which lies between Knutsford (approx 10 mins drive) and Holmes Chapel (approx 5 mins drive) close to excellent senior and primary school, including the exclusive independent school, Terra Nova. Goostrey village is close at hand, a really sought after community with some excellent small shops including the superb Trading Post village store, a highly regarded school and community sports and playing fields.
