An attractive detached period farmhouse in gated gardens of nearly half an acre, situated in a convenient location on the outskirts of the town, offering great scope to alter and extend. The house enjoys a useful range of buildings, including a large detached coach house comprising a double garage with garden office and other rooms at the rear, and a first-floor beamed room currently used as a gym. There is also an attached derelict barn to the side with great scope. The living accommodation in the main house is a little under 3,000 square feet and is set out over two floors, providing five bedrooms and three bathrooms (two en-suite) with three large ground floor reception rooms. The reception rooms include a drawing room and dining room, both impressive front-facing rooms with high ceilings and original features. The rear family room, a large open space with kitchen and utility/cloak room off, could be opened up into a huge triple use open plan living area, as is the fashion today. Steps from the hall lead down to a large cellar area with an original stone wine store. The Farm owns its access including secure remote controlled entry gates, which it shares with the neighbouring Bluebell Barn, which was converted and sold some years ago. The Farm then has its own private gateway onto a good-sized driveway that leads to the house, garaging and around the house to the side barn. The surrounding gardens extend to just under half an acre in all and are mainly laid to lawn, with a water fountain and small pond in the front garden. A restored detached two storey coach house at the rear of the Farm provides a large double garage with EV point, a room over suitable for a games room/gym, and useful ground floor rooms to the rear, which might convert to a small annex with further work as they comprise a garden lounge/office, potential kitchen and wc. Adjoining the house at the front is a large unconverted barn. Please note that several new housing schemes are earmarked for Knutsford including for this part of town. A new housing development, which will start on the outskirts of Knutsford and follow Manchester Road out of town, has been approved on land adjacent to Bluebell Barn, to the side of the Farm. The fields immediately behind the Farm are unaffected, and in fact will be enhanced by tree landscaping. These fields will remain in greenbelt and are not earmarked for future release from greenbelt in the Local Plan.
