Description

Quote Reference JS0322 ***Being Sold by your local Agent James Sherratt Powered by eXp***

A beautifully presented grade II picturesque cottage constructed of stone elevations featuring distinguished gothic wooden framed windows. The property consists of three good sized bedrooms, two reception rooms, garden room, traditional shaker style kitchen, and an Edwardian style three-piece bathroom suite. The property has been carefully modernised and maintained and is presented in excellent condition. You will also find a beautiful riverside garden with 136’ of river frontage that is well stocked with flowering plants and shrubs, and a stone flagged parking area providing off road parking with access to a single garage. Potential buyers should note that the property has all the benefits of being within the Peak District and is yet within a short commuting distance of both Macclesfield and Buxton that offer excellent transport links to Manchester, Manchester Airport and London as well as the M6 and M56 motorway networks.

This Grade II listed building originally formed part of Lord Derby’s Estate. It was part of a much larger historic water powered mills settlement. The mills were demolished many years ago, leaving a small cluster of distinguished homes dotted around the valley.

The property, and Wildboarclough, have featured in the book ‘Villages of England’ (Turpin and Hunt), and in Cheshire Life twice. The nearby village church was used as a location for the TV series ‘Jewel in the Crown’.

Located near the foot of Shuttlingsloe, the property lies between well-known beauty spots such as The Roaches, The Goyt Valley, Three Shires Head, Luds Church, and Teggs Nose Country Park. Regardless of season, this is a spectacularly beautiful part of England.

Activities include walking, bird-watching, cycling, shooting, paragliding, fishing, horse-riding, sailing, crag climbing, and motor-sports. Leisure centres can be found in Macclesfield, Leek, and Buxton.

Wildboarclough benefits from being at the point where Cheshire, Staffordshire, and Derbyshire meet. A greater range of activities such as air sports, caving and motor sports can be found within reasonable travel distance. Those with an interest in history will find lots to do.

Included – a collection of books, maps, and historical photos relating to the cottage and the Crag Estate, to be left with the property for the interest and benefit of subsequent owners.
