Description
Originally part of the historic Mossley Hall Estate, this beautifully presented barn, dating back to the early 1800s, was converted into a residence in the 1950s and has since been modernised and extended by previous owners, and thoroughly updated by its current vendors. This charming, detached property sits in an elevated position extending to approximately one third of an acre with expansive views of Congleton Edge and Congleton Golf Course, surrounded by meticulously maintained mature gardens.
Located in Mossley, one of Congleton’s most sought-after residential areas, The Old Barn offers a rural setting while remaining conveniently close to local amenities, the railway station, Mossley primary school and the golf course.
The entrance hall featuring a herringbone natural wood flooring, provides access to three of the four bedrooms, the bathroom, and a utility area. Stairs lead to the first-floor living space, where the reception rooms take full advantage of the stunning views of the gardens, golf course, and the picturesque Bosley Cloud.
The first-floor landing, which extends the length of the home, leads to a separate shower room and the principal bedroom, complete with a dressing area and en-suite. The spacious dining kitchen offers an extensive range of fitted units, integrated appliances, and two large picture windows with window seats that overlook the beautifully landscaped gardens.
The dining room, with its charming exposed beams, also offers garden views, while the centrepiece of the home is the expansive sitting room. Featuring a cast-iron wood burner and large windows on two sides, this room provides a tranquil space to enjoy the gardens and surrounding countryside. From the sitting room, steps lead down to the garden room, which also offers access to the cellar and the garden.
The home benefits from gas-fired central heating with thermostatic valves on all radiators and an alarm system for added security.
In addition to the double garage, there is ample off-road parking within the grounds, which boast beautiful lawns, flowerbeds, and extensive patio areas. Outbuildings include an entertainment room with a brick-built barbecue and attached workshop, adding to the property's unique charm.
