*A CHARMING DETACHED CHARACTER PROPERTY, WITH STUNNING RURAL VIEWS*

We are pleased to offer a rare opportunity to acquire this charming and spacious detached period property, perfectly positioned within walking distance to Croft Primary School and Croft park and within easy reach of Culcheth High School and the motorway network. Originally constructed over five hundred years ago, the property has been thoughtfully extended and modernised over the years, creating a spacious and adaptable family home that beautifully blends contemporary comforts with its rich historical charm. Period features such as exposed wattle and daub walls, sandstone sills, window seats and striking beamed ceilings have been lovingly preserved, adding to the home’s unique appeal and rustic charm. Occupying a generous plot of approximately half of an acre, the property enjoys expansive, well-maintained gardens at both the front and rear. The rear garden, in particular, benefits from uninterrupted views over rolling farmland, providing a tranquil and picturesque setting for outdoor living and entertaining.

Upon entering the property, you are welcomed into a generous entrance hallway that sets the tone for the spacious accommodation throughout. The ground floor offers five versatile reception rooms, providing a wealth of space for family living, entertaining, relaxation and work. At the heart of the home lies a beautifully handmade 'Country' style kitchen, thoughtfully designed with a practical utility area and a conveniently located ground floor WC.

The first floor continues to impress with five well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys the luxury of its own dressing room, with a freestanding stone bath providing a touch of luxury, along with an en suite shower room. The remaining bedrooms are served by a well-appointed and recently fitted shower room, ensuring comfort and convenience for all residents.

Externally, the property benefits from a substantial driveway that provides ample off-road parking, along with a double garage for additional storage or vehicle accommodation. The Garage also has potential for conversion and may suit multi generational living/annex.

This remarkable property offers a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious, character-filled home with endless potential for personalisation. Early viewings are strongly recommended to fully appreciate the unique features and generous living space that this property has to offer.
