4 bed cottage for sale

Mill Lane, Barthomley, Cheshire CW2

Once Upon a Lane... A Hidden Duchy cottage with a Heart Full of Charm is found...

Tucked away along a quiet, private lane, where the trees whisper and the countryside stretches wide, Clematis Cottage awaits — a beautifully preserved four-bedroom Duchy cottage that feels as if it’s been lifted from the pages of a storybook. Though officially semi-detached, this enchanting home offers the peace, privacy, and space of a detached property, wrapped in nature, nestled behind flourishing gardens, and surrounded by serene views. From the moment you arrive, a sense of calm and wonder settles in — this is not just a house, it’s a haven. Step inside and be welcomed by warmth and character at every turn. Where three picture-perfect reception rooms offer timeless elegance, each with its own unique charm — from the flicker of an electric fire in the cosy sitting room to the rich wood-panelled doors and traditional Adam-style fireplaces that echo the home’s heritage. The heart of the home is a spectacular kitchen/diner, extended to perfection and bathed in natural light. With sparkling quartz worktops, stable door, ceramic sink, integrated appliances, and even space for an aga, this is a space where family and friends will naturally gather, laugh, and linger. A handy utility room offers practical space, while still feeling every bit as well-considered as the rest of the home. Upstairs, four generously sized double bedrooms await, including a master suite with breathtaking views over the magical garden and a cleverly hidden en-suite. Further three other bedrooms await, each room is thoughtfully arranged, offering both comfort and style, with ample built-in storage and soft views that lull you into relaxation. The first floor is completed with spacious a tiled bathroom.

But the story doesn’t end there — in fact, it only deepens. Step through the French doors and into a garden that feels like it was dreamed into life — a spellbinding, sanctuary, overflowing with colour, texture, and charm at every turn. It’s a place where time slows down and the air feels sweeter, where butterflies dance through sunbeams and each path leads to something wonderful. Sip tea as the morning mist rises over the flowers, lose yourself in a book beneath a blossoming tree, or watch the stars come alive from a quiet nook on the lawn. Every corner is thoughtfully tended, yet wild with beauty — a true secret garden that feels both timeless and alive. And as if conjured by a wish, two utterly charming outbuildings sit tucked within the greenery — one beautifully glazed and fully powered, ready to become a creative studio, serene workspace, or even a little fairy-tale retreat of your own.

With newly fitted wooden double-glazed windows and doors, a modern alarm system, and a level of care and maintenance that shines through every detail, Clematis Cottage is ready for its next chapter. And though it feels a world away, you’re just minutes from the A500, M6, and the vibrant towns of Alsager, Nantwich, and Sandbach — offering the perfect blend of rural enchantment and real-world convenience

This is more than a home — it’s a fairytale waiting to be lived. A rare and wonderful opportunity to own a place where dreams grow wild among the flowers.
