The Tower House is a remarkable Grade II listed 17th century stone farmhouse set in the heart of Rainow village, surrounded by open countryside and enjoying far-reaching views in every direction. Offering extensive accommodation across three floors, along with a detached barn, generous gardens and private gated parking, this is a substantial and highly individual home.

Rich in history and character, the property retains an abundance of original features including exposed beams, stone flooring, handcrafted timber doors and traditional fireplaces, all carefully balanced with the practicalities required for modern family life. The layout is both versatile and well considered, with a series of well-proportioned reception rooms, an open plan breakfast kitchen and family room, and six bedrooms arranged across the upper floors.

In addition to the main house, there is a detached stone-built barn conversion annexe providing useful supplementary accommodation, with two bedrooms and flexible living space suited to guest accommodation, workspace, or multi-generational use.

Externally, the property enjoys substantial south-facing gardens that take full advantage of the elevated setting, with mature planting, fruit trees, open lawns and a number of seating areas positioned to enjoy the surrounding countryside views. Extensive gated parking provides space for multiple vehicles, alongside a large garage.

Location & Lifestyle
Rainow offers a true village setting surrounded by some of the most scenic landscapes in the area, with immediate access to the Peak District and an abundance of walking routes on the doorstep. Well-known local trails lead towards White Nancy, Kerridge Ridge and the wider network of footpaths and bridleways that define this part of Cheshire, making it ideal for those who enjoy the outdoors. Despite its rural feel, the property remains well connected. Macclesfield is just a short drive away, offering a full range of everyday amenities, independent shops, cafés and restaurants, along with a mainline train station providing direct services into Manchester and London. Manchester Airport and the wider motorway network are also easily accessible, making this an ideal balance of countryside living and connectivity.
