Comment From Robert Reed Of Gascoigne Halman
The name of this house in strikingly unusual and upon researching it further, I discovered that there are only five houses in the whole of the United Kingdom that are called the same. So very rare in UK terms and one of a kind in Cheshire!
The house started construction in 1992 and was completed after the input of the current owners who moved in in 1993 and have loved it ever since. The house benefits from the many assets that come with a relatively modern construction and a combination of capital expenditure, excellent design and the passing of time have turned the gardens into a standout feature of the overall property. There are also wonderful views to the rear over open countryside.
This charming, unique and enchanting detached cottage, is set in a lovely plot of 0.09 acre and has an extended ground floor which as the floorplan indicates, has two really large reception rooms plus a kitchen with breakfast area. The first floor is smaller and has been designed with the main bedroom as its focal point, having aspects to front and rear plus a large bank of fitted wardrobes. The other two bedrooms are singles and the bathroom also has a shower enclosure.
Externally there is driveway parking to the front. The garage has been converted into two separate spaces, they being a terrific home office or hobby room and a well planned workshop and store area. As already mentioned, the gardens are established, colourful and very private.
