DESCRIPTION
The Moathouse occupies an idyllic rural setting between the picturesque villages of Beeston & Peckforton. It is situated on Horsley Lane which is a quiet no-through lane serving a collection of period farmhouses & cottages which originally formed part of the surrounding Tollemache Estate. It is set well back from the lane and approached via a long cobbled drive which opens up to reveal an extremely attractive detached period residence dating from the 17th century and which is fully deserving of its Grade II listing. It is built on a sandstone plinth with half-timbered elevations beneath a tiled roof incorporating dormer windows with distinctive tall chimneys. Moathouse offers comfortable family accommodation which is surprisingly light and airy for a property of the period. The interior has been modernised in recent years but yet retains the original charm & character with exposed sandstone walls, oak beams, exposed wall & roof timbers and inglenook fireplace.
At ground floor level the accommodation flows well with interconnecting reception rooms and an open-plan kitchen with breakfast area and oil fired Rayburn which serves the central heating and hot water. Whilst there is scope to reconfigure the layout and possibly extend to create a garden room or orangery this would be subject to the availability of planning permission and listed building consent. At first floor level there is a master suite and three further bedrooms served by a family bathroom and on the wide landing there is a work space capable of accommodating a desk and computer. The first floor accommodation replicates the ground floor with exposed wall & roof timbers and there are delightful views from all windows.

Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
