Hidden gem
Convenient for commuting, Tangmere is well positioned for access to Chester, Liverpool and Manchester via road and rail links, yet enjoys a peaceful setting along Breech Moss Lane, hidden away along an unadopted country lane and nestled in the treeline.

Wending your way along the driveway, Tangmere reveals itself. Dating back to around 1812 and extended and updated over the years, Tangmere is a home that has evolved to adapt to modern living, now affording character and contemporary comfort in one.

Parking is available within the detached double garage, with solar panels fitted to the roof of the home to help offset energy costs.

OWNER QUOTE You really are hidden away, yet practically located and close to everything, its so handy.

Stepping through the front door, limestone porcelain floor extends underfoot, with impressive beams extending across the ceiling above.

A warm welcome
Beams are also a predominant feature of the lounge to the left. Part of the original 1800s cottage, sense the quiet calm of this room, awash with light from a large bay window to the front and another window to the side looking out to an ancient Bramley apple tree on the side.

A warm and welcoming room, the lounge takes on a cosy cottage charm in the evenings, with the log burner roaring from within its arched stone surround.

OWNER QUOTE This is the room the family comes together at Christmas to unwrap presents.

Fantastic flow
To the right of the front door, emerge into the capacious kitchen dining sitting room. Part of a modern extension, light streams in through new oak framed bifolding doors, which offer a seamless escape into the garden during the summer months.

With space for sofas upon which to stretch out and unwind, and a large dining table, this open plan family space is perfect for modern living.

OWNER QUOTE The flow of the home makes family living easy.

Feast your eyes
Installed in 2021, the bespoke fit, solid wood Pineland kitchen is cleverly configured to work for the chef, with appliances and storage cupboards and drawers well balanced for ease of dishwasher unloading and shelf stacking. Bifolding corner cupboards allow you to utilise the full range of space. Appliances include an integrated dishwasher, a Rangemaster cooker and plenty of space for large American style fridge freezer. Warmth emanates from the log burning stove.


OWNER QUOTE Its a room we spend most of our time in. In summer, with the doors open onto the patio, its a great room for bringing the outdoors in and appreciating the garden space.

Opening up off the kitchen is a handy boot room, which provides access through to the pantry on one side, and the utility room to the other side. Brimming with additional storage and plumbing for a washer dryer, you can step out from the utility room to hang your washing out in the garden behind.

Next door, a versatile reception room currently serves as a games room, with ample space for a snooker table and bedecked overhead in exposed beams.

With French doors out to the garden, this room has previously been used as both a playroom and a bedroom; ideal for multigenerational living and served by the shower room next door.

Bringing the outdoors in
Throughout the home, natural shades and materials enhance the sense of being in close contact with the outdoors, bringing the colours and textures of the countryside in.

Also nestled off the landing is a large, walk in linen closet, ideal for storage.

Idyllic garden
A garden in tune with nature, in every direction from the home there is a unique area of garden to be discovered and enjoyed.

The patio outside the home wraps around the corner, with an abundance of spring bulbs filling the banks with colour from early spring. Alongside the kitchen, a stepped, railway sleeper terrace is the perfect place for a morning coffee.

A sandstone pathway steps up through the lawn, passing an ancient oak tree, the way illuminated by festoon lighting, to provide access to the raised bed vegetable and cut flower beds at the top.

To the rear of the garden, there is a large field measuring around a third of an acre, with a generous playing area for children, with a separate firepit area for entertaining in the evenings and toasting marshmallows.

A wildflower meadow replete with an orchard and wildlife pond, is the perfect habitat for nature. Currently utilised as part of a cut flower farm business, raised beds and polytunnels help growth to flourish at Tangmere.

OWNER QUOTE Theres a slide, swing, and a mud kitchen. The garden is the perfect playground for children. We barely see them in the summer when theyre out playing games.

Save yourself the gentle stroll up the lane and access the village playground via the secret gate in the fence.

From the south patio, discover the more formal cottage garden of Tangmere, with rose beds.

There is also gated access to the field at the top from the main road, which is ideal for those with an idea for keeping ponies on the land.

OWNER QUOTE I love the location and sense of being in the outdoors its glorious to sit outside on a summers day, its so peaceful and tranquil.
