Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman
If ever a property could be described as multifaceted, this is the one! What a terrific opportunity this is, being just five minutes from Tarporley village centre. There is so much on offer here and in addition the property benefits from a competitive guide price and the enticement provided by there being no reservation of future development rights or overage.
The principal house is a charming half timbered 17th century period cottage which in its current format provides two storey accommodation with two bedrooms at first floor. A key thing to note is that planning permission has been granted for a substantial extension which allows extension of the cottage to incorporate a close by existing detached brick and sandstone barn, by way of a linked entrance to create a single dwelling.
Floor plans can be found within the marketing literature and all planning documentation being accessible from the Cheshire West and Chester planning portal under planning application reference 22/00088/FUL. Works to the listed building are internal rectification works with minor layout changes, with the aim of improving the condition of the heritage asset and enhancing its overall setting whilst also creating a dwelling in line with current day standards.
In addition to the house there is substantial timber barn within the plot which has potential for further development, subject to the appropriate planning consents.
Purchasers shall be deemed to have made their own enquiries into the possibility of erecting a separate dwelling or dwellings on the side garden or paddock. It should be noted that there is no reservation of future development rights, overage of clawback on any of the gardens or paddock.
There is a large garden to the side and rear of the property with ample off-road parking. Positioned to the rear of the garden is a paddock that is ideal for those with a horse, donkey or pony.
The whole plot extends to circa 1.60 acre.
Please note the details below re the informal tender on 1st November 2024.
For a personal description of the property or to arrange a viewing, please contact myself or a member of the team at the Tarporley office.
