" A unique opportunity to acquire an absolutely remarkable country property comprising several elements including a two bedroom semi detached cottage, landscaped gardens, eleven acres of land, menage, extensive outbuildings and a stunning waterfront location with the added benefit of several mooring rights. No ongoing chain, viewing essential.


3.51m(11'6'') x 2.90m(9'6'') Located in a delightful semi rural location and offered to the market by informal tender this fantastic individual property offers three separate elements each of which being of considerable merit. The residential dwelling is a sympathetically restored period semi detached cottage of deceptive size. On the ground floor the open plan kitchen and breakfast room offers a recently refurbished country style kitchen with excellent views to the rear. A versatile utility room benefits the equestrian user as its current layout acts as a tack drying room with large amounts of hanging and cleaning space. A contemporary shower room with a walk in shower and modern fittings is of further advantage whilst concluding the ground floor layout is the attractive living room. At first floor level the master bedroom at the rear of the property enjoys beautiful views of the adjoining land. In addition there is a further double bedroom and a well appointed bathroom.
The second element of the property is the land and outbuildings. Set within approximately eleven acres of land the outbuildings and menage are very appealing to the equestrian enthusiast. Working away from the house the menage and the solar panels are the first feature that is reached. The menage is laid to rubber with several layers of well maintained foundation and maintaining a sound, flat surface. In front of the menage are recently fitted solar panels which improve the energy rating of the property. Moving further into a central position is the barn and the stables. The open fronted barn is ideal for keeping horse carriages, carts, tractors or other ground working vehicles. The American barn system of stables has six internal loose boxes and a large storage and dressing area. Of particular note is the ability to use loose boxes four and five at one larger foaling box. There is both an electrical feed to the stable as well as water. The paddock enclosures are drained down to larger drains on the land boundaries and current divisions are defined by electric fences. There is a generous amount of space around the stable and barn in order to allow for muck piles, horse box turning and parking for vehicles.
A truly stunning feature at the end of the land is a glorious canalised river side location which cannot be fully appreciated without viewing taking into account the views of the iconic swing bridge and the open aspect of adjoining open land.
There is also exciting further potential for a range of uses (subject to planning) including commercial, livery or bed and breakfast. Alternatively, a stunning slice of Cheshire to be enjoyed as a family home, in this highly regarded area of the North West.
The semi rural village of Acton Bridge is renowned as one of Cheshire's most desirable village locations that is nestled in the heart of beautiful countryside, yet lies only a ten to fifteen minute drive from the nearby centres including Tarporley, Northwich and Frodsham. Within two minutes walk of the house is Acton Bridge Railway Station which runs on the Liverpool - London line in addition to a garden centre, Church and public house. The adjoining village of Crowton also has a highly regarded public house and picturesque church whilst the area as a whole provides a superb base from which to reach an outstanding range of educational establishments in both the private and state sector that cater for children from infant school age through to sixth form level. Acton Bridge is also an ideal base for the business traveller with many commercial centres including Chester, Manchester, Liverpool and Warrington being within comfortable daily travelling distance. Within a short drive there is also good access onto the A49, A51, M6 and M56 whilst Manchester and Liverpool international Airports can be found within 40 minutes drive. For those seeking to enjoy the surrounding countryside, there is a vast array of delightful rural walks close at hand.
