This Solitary Tree! A living thing, produced too slowly to ever decay! Of form and aspect too magnificent to be destroyed! W. Wordsworth (1770-1850) describing the Yew Tree in Lorton Vale. Much of this quote could be likened to Yew Tree Cottage in Moblake, lovingly restored and extended over the years, retaining much of its character, creating a property of fine form with a magnificent aspect over rolling Cheshire countryside. Sitting comfortably on a plot extending to approximately a third of an acre with beautiful mature landscaped gardens and ample parking, plus having an adjoining 3.0 acre paddock, Yew Tree Cottage offers a generous slice of rural living! The accommodation comprises in brief; entrance porch, wonderful family room with original wooden panelling, spacious formal sitting room, perfect for entertaining guests, fabulous garden room overlooking the rear garden, study/bed 5, and bathroom with three piece suite comprising; panelled bath, pedestal wash hand basin and a low flush W/C. There is an impressive country style kitchen/breakfast room which offers a range of fitted wall and base units with complementary work surfaces and a one and a half bowl sink unit inset. There is an Range style cooker with multi-ring gas hob, integrated dishwasher and space for an American style fridge/freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer. Off the kitchen is a large utility room which has a door leading to a snug with patio doors to outside, and a staircase up to a bedroom with en-suite shower room. The utility room could easily serve as a second kitchen providing excellent potential for this section of the property to be adapted to a self contained annex for independent family members or to provide an income via rental or airbnb. To the first floor there is a stunning master bedroom which has a Juliet balcony boasting far reaching views over the surrounding countryside as well as an en-suite bathroom with four piece suite comprising free-standing bath, separate double shower cubicle, wash hand basin and a low flush W/C. Completing the first floor are two further double bedrooms, one of which benefits from fitted wardrobes, and a family bathroom. Externally, in addition to the aforementioned gardens and land, there are a number of outbuildings including a timber framed cabin with power and lighting, three stables and tack room, two open barns, and a workshop/tool store.
