Description

Dairy Cottage is a most appealing Grade II Listed barn conversion, forming part of a select courtyard development of former farm building.

Approached via secure gated access, the property enjoys a peaceful and private position within this exclusive setting, surrounded by established gardens and adjoining the local golf course. The location perfectly balances a sense of countryside calm with excellent convenience, being about 1.5 miles from the thriving village of Stockton Heath, renowned for its independent shops, restaurants, and cafés.

The accommodation is both versatile and deceptively spacious, extending to around four bedrooms arranged over two floors. The ground floor, in particular, offers excellent flexibility, ideal for an extended family, multi-generational living, or those seeking space to work from home.

A welcoming reception hall leads to a generous sitting room featuring an impressive inglenook fireplace, while the well-appointed kitchen with breakfast area provides a sociable heart to the home. The ground floor also includes a double bedroom with independent access, a further bedroom/dining room, and a cloakroom/WC.

The extensive gardens are mainly laid to lawn, offering an excellent degree of privacy and space for outdoor enjoyment.

Dairy Cottage is ideally situated for commuters, with convenient access to the motorway network via the M56 at Stretton and mainline rail connections in nearby Warrington. The property truly offers the best of both worlds — a countryside retreat with modern connectivity.
