Description - 1 Monks Hall Cottages bares a datestone marked 1951 and was built as a farm workers cottage to Monks Hall. The approach, off Audlem Road, is over a half mile tarmacadam drive (Mill Lane) to a shared (with number 2 Monks Hall Cottages) drive and its own car parking space and garage. So often, cottages in this type of location are beyond the affordability of the majority of buyers and have been developed in such a way that leaves no room for future customisation. This incredibly rare buying opportunity delivers the opposite, with a fair guide price and extensive potential to improve and enlarge, subject to planning permission.
If you enjoy wildlife and nature, walking or running or observing open skylines and sunsets then this setting is going to be difficult to better. All of this and just 1.5 miles from Audlem village centre and 6 miles from the market town of Nantwich.
Location & Amenities - Mill Lane is a private lane leading to, as the name suggests, Hankelow Mill (now two houses), eight further dwellings (including number one), Monks Hall Farm and Coole Hall Farm beyond. Hankelow village centre is one mile with village green and duck pond, chapel and recently refurbished White Lion Pub/Restaurant. Audlem village centre is 1.5 miles and is an attractive country village providing a number of local shops including chemist, butchers, local co-operative store and newsagent, health centre, modern primary school, café, three public houses and wide variety of community activities.
Nantwich has a choice of shopping facilities, social amenities and sporting facilities. There is a primary school in Audlem and the Cottage lies in the catchment area of Brine Leas Secondary School/BL6 Sixth Form.
