3 bedroom detached house for sale

*BEST AND FINALS DEADLINE FRIDAY 12TH DECEMBER 12 NOON*

The property
The main residence is a well-proportioned cottage
offering more than 1,500 sq ft of accommodation, with potential for renovation or extension (subject to the necessary consents).

The interiors feature clean, neutral décor with
understated styling and tiled flooring across the
ground level, which includes three comfortable
reception rooms offering space for family living and entertaining.

The generous, 22ft sitting room has windows to the front and rear, welcoming plenty of natural light, while the formal dining room is situated at the front.

Towards the rear, the sunny conservatory offers
further everyday living space, with French doors
opening to the gardens and panoramic views across the surrounding countryside.

The kitchen is fitted with wooden units to base and
wall level and providing space for all the necessary
appliances. The walk-in larder and the utility room
provide further useful storage space. Upstairs there are three well-presented double bedrooms, all of which features picture rails and exposed wooden floorboards, and two of which benefit from built-in storage. The first floor also has a
family bathroom with a corner bathtub with a shower attachment, and a separate shower room.

Outbuildings
Main Barn - a large t-shaped 'Cheshire red-brick
style' barn the majority of which is slate roofed and comprising a mix of cattle sheds, bays, and stores.

Granary style first floors run across the central
elements of the Main Barn. Single storey buildings
complete the Main Barn - at the northwest corner
a 'Dutch barn' style red brick barn with corrugated
metal roof, and the southwest corner a mix of modern and traditional red brick with slate roof.

Large Barn - a more modern agricultural building
with brick walls, space boarding above under a fibre cement roof. This adjoins a double height steel portal frame building, sleeper walls, space boarding above with cement fibre roof.

Rear Barn - on the north-east corner of the site lies a further red brick barn similar to that of the Main Barn in design and structure. With slate roof and two storey height granary floors across the length of the building.

Adjoining the Rear Barn at a right angle is a 3-bay
open sided red brick and slate roof single storey barn.

Garage, Lean-to and Shed - the 'Garage' building
is red brick in build, two boarded 'car port' style
openings with a modern agricultural store style roof. The Shed is brick built with corrugated roof and wooden doors in poor order. The Lean-to sits between the Garage and Shed and is in disrepair.
Between the barns and the house lie two large steel frame Dutch barns with both roofs in considerable disrepair.

The large gravelled driveway runs to the side of the property and offers ample space for a number of vehicles.

The gardens lie to the front and rear mainly laid to
lawn, with hedgerow along the roadside edge. Two wooden sheds provide external storage.

The range of barns on the site have two access points directly from Lodge Lane so the cottage enjoys its own private access.
