Superb, vacant detached period farmhouse with 1.5 acres, of interest to investors, developers and self builders.
Town Lane Farm is an attractive detached period farmhouse, in a lovely position within the village conservation area just a short stroll to the shops/facilities of the village and also to the excellent local pubs, The Church Inn, The Roebuck, and The Bulls Head. it sits within gated gardens and grounds, about 1.5 acres in all, together with a detached double garage with excellent adjoining one bedroom annex to the rear. The property enjoys lovely open views.
The house was refurbished and modernised around 10 to 15 years ago, just before the current owners bought it, and they later embarked on an extension and further enlargement programme in 2020/21, following receipt of planning permission and conservation consent in 2020, referenced in the East Cheshire planning portal under ref number 19/5339M. It involved a rear ground floor enlargement of the single storey lean to extension and a useable large basement below. Sadly, these works were never completed, due to issues with the build contract, and the house has remained empty and part finished since. There is a good deal of structural propping internally and the rear wall of the house is still missing for instance. The work was halted, in part as structural problems to the floor slab were noticed during the creation of the basement, caused by the on going building works. Prior to marketing, we have asked a structural engineer to provide a report, which can be made available to interested parties upon request. In essence it would appear that the house is structurally fairly sound today, but certain works will be required to remediate as outlined in the report. It is not a listed building.
In the traditional sense, the house is probably in un-mortgageable condition, and it is certainly not fit for occupation until extensive remediation works are carried out, which is why we are seeking those with experience in building projects and the ability to buy as a cash purchaser. Work was started within the period of the planning permission but that consent has of course now expired. It may be that the planning permission is therefore extant but we suggest interested parties satisfy themselves in this regard with the local planning authority.
It represents a wonderful opportunity for an incoming buyer to alter and finish what could be a wonderful period family house in a truly sought after village setting.
