Description

*** DETACHED PROPERTY WITH ADDITIONAL PLOT OF LAND IN EXCESS OF FOUR ACRES, WITH POTENTIAL FOR DEVELOPMENT, SUBJECT TO PLANNING APPROVAL ***

Standing proudly within a fabulous mature gated plot, 'Sandy Bank Farm 'is a spectacular rural retreat that provides the perfect balance of rustic charm and high level privacy that simply must be seen in person to be fully appreciated. The property itself originally dates back to the 16th century as a cottage, yet has been significantly extended over the years to create a splendid detached family residence that offers exceptionally well-proportioned living space, coupled by fabulous private grounds.
This beautiful property has been lovingly cared for by the current owner, yet still offers potential to upgrade further.
Whilst the location benefits from the feeling of rural seclusion, it is in fact within easy access to a host of amenities including good schools, as well as being well-placed for the motorway network, making it ideal for those looking to commute across the North West.

The exceptionally well-proportioned and highly versatile accommodation in brief comprises of an inviting reception hallway, cloakroom/WC, spacious lounge, formal dining room, an orangery with picturesque views over the gardens, fitted kitchen with a wealth of integrated appliances, utility room, additional store room and a large guest bedroom to the ground floor.
On the first floor the landing provides access into the breath-taking family/games room with bar area and a large private sun terrace that overlooks the gardens and land. A fitted study also leads off this room. There are three further bedroom on this floor, including a fantastic master suite with a spacious, modern en suite bathroom and a separate family bathroom to serve the other bedrooms.
The gated driveway and large courtyard area offers extensive parking arrangements for several vehicles, along with an integral double garage, whilst the beautiful manicured gardens provide a private, pleasant and tranquil setting.
An additional plot of land to the rear, totalling in excess of four acres is made up of pasture land and approximately an acre of woodland. The pasture land currently houses a substantial two storey detached outbuilding which offers potential for further development if required (subject to planning consent) for either residential purposes, or into stabling for those looking for Equestrian facilities.
Rarely do homes of this size and calibre come to the market in such idyllic locations and as such, early internal viewings are strongly recommended to avoid disappointment.
