Charming Grade II listed farmhouse which has been lovingly restored, with a detached one bedroom barn conversion set in 0.26 acres adjoining Cheshire countryside with views.



Description

Dating back to 1781, Dane Villa Farm is a charming Farmhouse which has been lovingly upgraded, by sympathetically restoring and blending a wealth of traditional features, including exposed wooden beams, shiplap panelling, barn doors and vintage cabinetry with a modern farmhouse style. Modern features include handmade oak window frames, wooden flooring, fitted furniture and bifold doors. Dane Villa Farm sophisticatedly combines classic and contemporary touches, using smooth lines, glossy accents and neutral colour schemes evoking feelings of warmth and comfort. The property is complemented by a one bedroom detached barn conversion, which has been upgraded beautifully whilst retaining many traditional rustic features.

The property is set back behind electric gates and is approached along a gravel driveway with parking for several vehicles. The covered entrance porch leads through to the spacious main hallway with oak style flooring and wooden panelling. A newly fitted bathroom suite lies off the hallway which has been lavishly designed with feature tiling, modern sanitaryware and a shower. To the right of the hallway is a double aspect reception room with front garden views currently being used as a work room but would suit many conventional needs. There is also a spacious sitting room off the hallway with wooden beams, alcove shelving and a newly designed fire place and stove, with access onto the courtyard.

The highlight of the downstairs accommodation is the attractive kitchen/dining/living area. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with contemporary units, quartz work surfaces and a range of high specification appliances including Neff oven and combination microwave oven, Elica gas hob and an integrated dishwasher, wine cooler and fridge freezer. This room provides the perfect space for living and entertaining with bi folding doors allowing uninterrupted views of the gardens and a stable door with direct access.

There is a family room off the kitchen with original feature fireplace, fitted alcove cupboards and a fitted desk. Completing the well-balanced downstairs accommodation is a fully fitted utility room with space for a washing machine, dryer and a fridge/freezer which could also be used as a boot room with door access into the garden.

The original stairwell leads up to the galleried landing and gives access to three generously proportioned bedrooms two of which benefit from customised fitted furniture. The impressive principal bedroom has bespoke fitted wardrobes and a dressing area. A modern house bathroom completes the first floor with a freestanding bath, panelling and fitted vanity unit.

Externally there is a converted one bedroom detached barn extending to 704 sq ft of conventional living space. The barn has been upgraded with a high quality finish including a light and modern kitchen/living/dining area, bathroom suite and a main bedroom with fitted furniture all within a private garden.
The gardens for Dane Villa Farm and the detached barn have been well maintained and are laid mainly down to lawn with well stocked borders, shrubs, mature and specimen trees and a delightful courtyard.

Location

Only a 5 minute drive to the south of Alderley Edge and 13 minutes from the main West Coast line station at Macclesfield and Wilmslow (London Euston from Macclesfield in 1hr 46mins), Dane Villa is well placed for access to Kings School Macclesfield, Ryleys Prep School, sports clubs, leisure facilities, livery and golf courses.

Sailing at nearby Redesmere and outdoor pursuits in the Peak National Park are only a short drive away. Manchester Airport is a 25 minute drive and both the M6 and Manchester City centre are commutable providing access to the north west’s commercial centres. There are plenty of local walks and cycle routes and a great choice of restaurants, bistros and bars in Alderley Edge and Wilmslow for the evening. Indeed, in this glorious rural setting, it is hard to believe the busy towns and villages of south Manchester are so close.
