About this property

A beautifully presented, extended, 17th century Grade II Listed Farmhouse sitting in manicured formal gardens, situated in a quiet, elevated position with views over adjoining countryside.

This beautifully presented, detached 17th Century Grade II Listed farmhouse has been extended and sympathetically maintained by the current owners over the years to provide light, spacious and highly flexible living accommodation, whilst retaining a wealth of original character features including a stone roof, exposed ceiling beams and a charming garden well.

Particular mention must be made of the generous reception rooms featuring open fireplaces, exposed brickwork and original timbers, the farmhouse-style dining kitchen with Rayburn range cooker and adjoining boot room, as well as the five double bedrooms and en-suite bathroom to the principal bedroom. There remains excellent potential for a purchaser to further enhance the property and add their own style to this wonderful country home. The range of outbuildings offers a variety of possibilities, including conversion to stabling, a home office, annex accommodation or alternative uses, subject to the necessary consents.

Occupying a sought-after semi-rural position within the village of Lower Withington, the property enjoys far-reaching elevated views across the surrounding countryside whilst remaining conveniently located for local amenities and excellent transport links throughout the North West and beyond.

The property is approached via a sweeping gravel driveway providing extensive off-road parking and leading to the front entrance, detached carport, Dutch barn and original Shippon. The grounds are predominantly laid to lawn and complemented by mature planting and established trees, creating an attractive and private setting.

The rear gardens are a particular feature of the property, generous in size and enjoying a private outlook over open countryside beyond. Predominantly laid to lawn with a range of well-stocked borders, mature trees and established shrubs, the gardens are fully enclosed by timber fencing. A stone-flagged patio extends around the rear of the house, providing an ideal space for al fresco dining, entertaining and enjoying the superb rural aspect.

In addition, a substantial field extending to over 4 acres lies to the rear of the property and is available by separate negotiation, presenting an excellent opportunity for equestrian, recreational or other outdoor pursuits.
