Description
Fabulous equestrian property set in about 5.5 acres with stables, paddocks and an all-weather menage.
The property is nestled in a enviable position within the picturesque mid-Cheshire countryside, offering idyllic views to both the front and rear. Renovated and extended over recent years, it blends character with modern living, creating a spacious home of excellent proportions and a high standard of finish throughout.
The ground floor opens into a bright entrance hallway with oak flooring. The front section of the house features four generously sized and versatile reception rooms, each with charming character details, including log burners, sash windows, exposed brickwork, and original beams. Currently arranged as a snug (featuring a Chilli Penguin log burner), dining room, family room, and living room, these rooms can easily be reconfigured to suit individual needs, with potential alternative uses such as a playroom or study.
At the rear of the property, the space opens into a superb open-plan kitchen/diner, beautifully illuminated by natural light from French doors leading to the south-facing garden. The handmade Hetherington Newman kitchen is a true highlight, offering premium fixtures, fittings, and appliances, including an electric Range Cooker, underfloor heating, and a built-in larder cupboard. The dining area is both spacious and light, providing the perfect space to entertain or relax, with easy access to the patio during the warmer months. Alternatively, retreat indoors to the adjacent family room, complete with a cosy log burner. Beyond the dining area, a rear boot room offers ample storage for boots and coats, with external side access, while the well-equipped utility room and downstairs shower room are perfect for cleaning up after outdoor activities—ideal for both humans and pets alike.
The first floor is home to four well-proportioned bedrooms, each offering countryside views. The rooms are versatile and can easily be adapted for other uses, such as playrooms or home offices. Bedroom four, situated at the rear of the house, benefits from fitted wardrobes. There is also a family bathroom with a shower over the bath. The top floor is dedicated to the principal suite, featuring a spacious bedroom with original timber framework, a four-piece bathroom with both a bath and separate shower cubicle, and a stylishly fitted dressing room installed in 2023.
Externally, the gravel front driveway provides parking for at least three vehicles. To the rear, the private south-facing garden offers a sunny and peaceful retreat, complete with a patio, lawn, raised borders, and a vegetable patch. Additional parking is available on the stable yard access road or the hard standing beyond.
The equestrian facilities are truly impressive. Tucked away at the rear of the property, with access via a secure gated side road, the yard includes seven stables (including a washroom with heat lamps), a tack room, a store room, and ample hard standing with drainage. Beyond the yard is an all-weather, floodlit arena, five paddocks with post-and-rail fencing (dog-proofed around the outer perimeter), and a fenced-off pond in the far paddock. The specification is excellent, with sealed rubber flooring, electricity, and water supply to the stables, as well as water supply to all paddocks.
Location
The property sits in the Cheshire countryside, under a mile from Little Leigh, a charming small village on the Trent and Mersey canal. The larger village of Barnton is 1.5 miles East, with amenities to cater for most day-to-day requirements , while Northwich town centre (3.6 miles) offers a wider range of shops and supermarkets.
Acton Bridge (2.1 miles) provides train connections to Liverpool, Birmingham and London. International connections are also accessible, with both Manchester and Liverpool airports via the M6 and M56 road links. Families are well served by many popular state primary and senior schools in the local area, along with the independent Grange School in Hartford.
There are plenty of local sporting facilities, with a swimming pool and gym in Northwich and golf and tennis facilities in both Hartford and Cuddington. The North Cheshire Pony club is located nearby and Delamere forest is approximately 8 miles away.
