9 bedroom property for sale

Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman This amazing residential and agricultural holding has been in the same family ownership for 37 years and accordingly represents a very special and exceptionally rare buying opportunity. It is a property that has been continually invested in and enhanced through the years and also much treasured and loved, as evidenced by the beautiful gardens and impeccably planned changes. It is offered with no ongoing chain and would be a prime candidate for those families looking for a multi generational living arrangement, an income generating detached converted barn or simply those who want privacy, establishment and a sense of their own space. It would also be ideal for those who want to have animals at home or have a love of the outdoors and walking. The land extends to circa 18 acres and comprises the driveway, formal gardens, arable and pasture. Very often with such a large amount of land this type of property can often be really rather remote and not connected to a village. Not so here! Within a short walk is a superb pub restaurant whilst the village also has a children's nursery, primary school and Church. Nearby villages provide a wealth of educational choice. This is a really well balanced property with a pleasing mix of buildings and land. The principal farmhouse is a good size family home of 2000 square feet with four bedrooms and two bathrooms. At ground floor level there are three versatile reception rooms, a large hall and a very spacious breakfast kitchen. The farmhouse has been decorated throughout in recent times and also offer very obvious scope to be further enhanced and modernised to suit individual requirements. The real treat here is the handsome detached barn which is brick built and offers ancillary two storey accommodation extending to just a little under 2600 square feet. It is presently divided into two self-contained holiday or rental properties and have also been used for occasional guests and family members. Barn one comprises two bedrooms and one bathroom, barn two comprises three bedrooms, family bathroom and en suite. Each has it own breakfast kitchen. The barn is easily convertible to a single dwelling, if required. For all the wonderful photos and marketing materials one can create, what is very hard to fully convey is what a special location this is. Once up the driveway, it is hard to believe you are in a village, such is the privacy and tranquillity. This is a setting where you can walk your own land, sit in a totally private garden with unchallenged privacy or while away afternoons creating or mending items in the general purpose outbuildings. For those families with younger members, this will represent something of a dream location, with outstanding long terms prospects. I've been selling houses for 23 years now and can honestly say this is one of my best instructions to date. Hilltop Farm is not a just a collection of buildings and land, it is far more than that - it is a unique lifestyle opportunity like no other presently for sale. Come and enjoy all it has to offer. For a personal description of the property or to arrange a viewing, please contact myself or the Gascoigne Halman Tarporley office. Accommodation and dimensions As detailed on the floorplans.
