An exceptional planning permission has been granted for the extension and refurbishment of the existing dwelling to almost double the size of the existing accommodation. (Cheshire East Planning Ref: 20/1809N).

Based upon the approved scheme, the internal accommodation could provide: a triple-height galleried hall, lift, five / six reception rooms, living kitchen with orangery, six bedrooms all with en suite facilities (principal with twin dressing rooms, dual en suites, fitness / yoga studio), two large roof terraces, cinema room, home office suite with separate access. There is also the additional benefit of a one bedroom guest apartment, further separate two bedroom staff apartment and garaging.
