Description
A Rare Opportunity: Enchanting Semi-Detached Home Within a Historic 18th Century Estate
Nestled within the prestigious grounds of the Grade I listed Tabley House Estate, this beautifully presented three-bedroom semi-detached home offers a truly exceptional lifestyle opportunity. Accessed via a long private driveway that meanders through stunning parkland and pasture, Number 1 Garden Cottages enjoys an idyllic rural setting on the edge of sought-after Knutsford.
The Property
This charming residence has been refurbished to an exemplary standard, seamlessly blending traditional character with contemporary comfort. Rich dark oak flooring flows throughout the ground floor, complemented by quality fittings and finishes that create an inviting and sophisticated atmosphere.
The thoughtfully designed accommodation extends over three floors and includes:
Ground Floor: Reception hallway with WC, formal dining room with glazed doors opening to a cosy sitting room featuring an exposed brick fireplace with cast iron stove. The kitchen is fitted with attractive oak-fronted units and an Aga range cooker, with a matching utility room adjacent.
First Floor: Two generously proportioned double bedrooms, including an exceptionally large second bedroom, plus a stylish family bathroom, dressing room, and study.
Second Floor: A magnificent master bedroom suite offering a private sanctuary with far-reaching views.
Outside
The property sits within approximately 0.2 acres of beautifully landscaped private gardens, predominantly laid to lawn and featuring an abundance of mature shrubs and specimen trees. The gardens wrap around three sides of the house, creating wonderful views from every principal room. Ample off-road parking is provided on the tarmac driveway, alongside a timber-framed single garage.
The Location
Tabley House Estate offers residents an extraordinary living environment steeped in history. The Grade I listed Palladian mansion, designed by renowned architect John Carr for the Leicester family, is surrounded by picturesque parkland, manicured lawns, and a tranquil lake. The estate hosts the historic Knutsford Races annually, a tradition dating back to the 17th century.
Despite its peaceful rural position, the property benefits from close proximity to Knutsford's excellent amenities, schools, and transport links.
