Description
Elms Farm represents an exceptional fusion of period character and contemporary design. The property has undergone an extensive programme of refurbishment during the current owner’s tenure, seamlessly combining its Victorian heritage with a suite of modern installations. Full home automation now controls the heating, lighting, security, entertainment system and curtains/blinds, creating an effortlessly connected home. The result is a beautifully balanced property offering extensive, flexible and predominantly open plan accommodation in a superb rural setting, yet only moments from the ever popular village of Betley, home to the regionally renowned Hand & Trumpet and The Broughton.
Approached through an oak framed porch, the entrance hall creates an impressive first impression and provides access to all principal living spaces. The contemporary, dual aspect sitting room is of excellent proportions and features a stylish clad media wall incorporating a modern fireplace. To the opposite side of the hall, the dining room provides a substantial formal entertaining space, complete with a feature Cheshire brick wall and views over the front gardens. Occupying the rear wing, the kitchen/dining/living area forms the heart of the home. A superb open plan space with underfloor heating and a full wall of bi folding doors opening onto the west facing terrace and outdoor kitchen. The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of floor, wall and island cabinetry, all set beneath Unistone worksurfaces. Integrated Siemens appliances include twin ovens, a warming drawer, microwave, hob with extractor, fridge, freezer and a Quooker tap. The adjoining dining and living areas offer generous space for informal gatherings, with the living area featuring a further media wall. The full length bi folding doors draw in abundant natural light and provide seamless indoor/outdoor living.
A utility room with guest WC and a study sit to the rear of the kitchen, while a cloakroom with plant room and a versatile lower ground home gym complete the ground floor. The gym could easily be adapted to suit a range of requirements.
A spindled staircase with stair level lighting rises to a generous first floor landing. The principal bedroom suite occupies the entire rear wing, creating a truly hotel style retreat. The bedroom enjoys outstanding rural views through bi folding doors that open onto a full length balcony. A well appointed dressing area offers a range of open fronted wardrobes, drawers and a dressing table. The luxurious en suite features a double shower and freestanding bath positioned to enjoy countryside views via a picture window.
There are three further double bedrooms on the first floor, all with en suite shower rooms, two of which benefit from walk in wardrobes.
Elms Farm is complemented by generous grounds and a selection of high quality outbuildings. The oak framed double garage features two remote controlled electric roller doors and a staircase rising to a first floor cinema room. This versatile space could serve equally well as a playroom or home office, subject to requirements.
To the rear of the house and garaging is a further, highly useful barn. Recently refurbished, it is currently arranged as a studio and benefits from light, power and electric heating. Its flexibility makes it ideal as an additional home office, creative studio or ancillary space.
The property is approached through a five bar gate onto a driveway providing parking for numerous vehicles, leading onward to the garaging. Expansive lawns sit to the front of the house and wrap around one side, flowing towards the west facing terrace. Here, an oak framed outdoor kitchen complete with sink and BBQ creates an excellent space for alfresco dining and entertaining.
To the opposite side of the house is a sheltered courtyard with direct access into the kitchen. This private, south facing area offers an intimate and peaceful setting, ideal for morning coffee or secluded outdoor dining.
Location
Elms Farm is positioned in a peaceful rural setting on the South Cheshire / North Staffordshire border. Situated just north of Betley, the property enjoys close proximity to a wide range of village amenities including Betley Village Shop, The Hand & Trumpet, Paragon’s The Broughton and a local doctors’ surgery. Betley also offers a vibrant community, centred around the long established Betley Cricket Club and the village hall, which hosts regular activities including amateur dramatics, dog training and Beavers.
The larger market town of Nantwich lies just over 9 miles away, providing an excellent selection of both independent and national retailers, along with cafés, restaurants and cultural venues.
For commuters, the location is superb. Junction 16 of the M6 is only about 4.9 miles away, offering swift access to the regional and national road network. Manchester lies approximately 40 miles to the north, with Birmingham around 55 miles to the south. Crewe Railway Station- a major rail hub is just 3.54 miles from CW2 5QB, with direct mainline services to London Euston.
Schooling in the area is excellent, with Betley C of E Primary School and Madeley School nearby. Highly regarded independent options including Newcastle-under-Lyme School, Edenhurst and St Dominic’s are all within comfortable reach.
