Hall Lane, Haughton, CW6

Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman

A good way of assessing the popularity of a location is to note the number of houses that have changed hands over a sustained period of time. In this particular case it is the startling lack of transactions that stands out, with just three sales in twenty two years.

This only goes to demonstrate what a terrific place this is to live, it is a location that once people buy in, they tend to stay in for a long period.

As for the barn itself, this really is a special home that is elegant, spacious, versatile and hugely appealing. The barn combines the original character features of the historic building, which are unspoilt and clearly displayed, with beautiful and tasteful contemporary quality which makes this home a perfect option for those who appreciate both quality and tranquillity.

As the floorplan demonstrates, there are four bedrooms, an en suite and main family bathroom. The ground floor has two lovely reception rooms, a superb breakfast kitchen with AGA, large utility room, cloakroom and particularly impressive entrance hall. The barn extends to 1962 square feet in total.

The external arrangement is also very special, with the present owners dedicating themselves to creating a delightful garden that has been expertly stocked and landscaped so as to provide a mature and private setting. The garden has been beautifully planted to create an abundance of colour in the key months of the year.

On a practical level there is double width driveway and a detached double garage. The location is excellent with the development positioned on a tree lined and country lane adjoining countryside and fields, with the sense of rural also aligning with excellent nearby transport links by road, railway and air.

As can be immediately seen, the subject property enjoys very strong aesthetic appeal with delightful brick work and pointing and an unquestionable attention to detail. Externally in addition to the garden, I love the landscaped courtyard to the front which is a link area with other barns in the setting.

Those with children will be interested to note that the Tarporley and Bunbury school bus picks and drops off within the village of Haughton. If you enjoy walking or have a dog, this location is ideal. A network of public footpaths across fields leads surrounding villages. For example, nearby Bunbury can be accessed on foot cross country.

For a personal discussion about this unique residence, please contact me or speak to any member of the team to arrange a viewing.
