Partridge Homes, the Multi Award Winning Letting Agents and recognised Go-To Letting Agents for the Sports and Entertainment world, are delighted to offer to the rental market this truly exceptional thatched country residence, positioned within the prestigious Cheshire countryside close to Alderley Edge.

With an established reputation for relocating professional footballers, sportspeople and high-profile clients, Partridge Homes specialise in sourcing and letting exceptional homes where privacy, security, location and lifestyle are paramount.

Bluebell Cottage is a superb example of exactly that. Set behind electric gates and approached via an impressive sweeping gravel driveway, this remarkable family home occupies approximately 2.18 acres of private, south-facing grounds and provides approximately 4,311 sq ft of accommodation, including a detached self-contained annexe and garage buildings.

Bluebell Cottage beautifully combines the charm and individuality of a traditional Cheshire country residence with the space and facilities expected from a modern luxury home. Its thatched roof, wisteria-clad elevations, exposed timbers, oak joinery, natural stone and parquet flooring create a property full of character, while the generous proportions provide excellent space for contemporary family living.

At the heart of the home is an impressive kitchen and dining room extending to more than 28 feet. Designed for both everyday family life and entertaining, the space features a substantial central island, granite work surfaces, banquette seating and a traditional four-oven Aga. A large utility and boot room provide additional practicality, while the kitchen connects beautifully with the garden room and surrounding grounds. The ground floor provides an exceptional selection of reception and entertaining spaces.

The elegant main living room features a wood-burning stove and enjoys views across the gardens, while the impressive oak-panelled cinema room creates a fantastic space for relaxed evenings and entertaining. A generous study provides a dedicated home-working environment, with the overall ground-floor accommodation offering considerable flexibility for families requiring separate areas for living, working and entertaining.

The first floor provides four individually designed bedrooms, including an impressive principal suite with its own en suite bathroom and dressing area. Three further characterful bedrooms are complemented by a well-appointed family bathroom, while a secondary staircase serving the fourth bedroom adds further individuality to this unique home.

Self-Contained Annexe - A major advantage of Bluebell Cottage is its detached self-contained annexe, extending to approximately 400 sq ft. Providing an open-plan kitchen and living area, bedroom, bathroom and mezzanine, this additional accommodation offers excellent flexibility for visiting family, guests, older children, household staff or those requiring an entirely separate home office.
Gardens & Entertaining - Outside is where Bluebell Cottage really comes into its own. Approximately 2.18 acres of south-facing grounds surround the property, combining extensive lawns, established hedging, mature planting and open countryside to create an excellent level of privacy.

A recently created contemporary entertaining terrace provides a superb extension of the house and features an outdoor kitchen, bar, pizza oven and spa, creating the perfect setting for summer entertaining and relaxed family living. Beyond the formal gardens is a substantial paddock, providing further recreational space and potential for equestrian use, subject to any necessary arrangements and consents.
