Description

Cherry Tree Farm originally formed part of the Duchy of Lancaster estate and is of brick and part timbered construction under a tiled roof, approached through electrically operated gates over a gravelled drive. The house and gardens have been lavished with capital expenditure, care and attention over the last three years. Inside offers a wonderful combination of original features and refined tasteful contemporary quality. It is a house that has a warm character throughout with features including a wealth of original ceiling beams and wall timbers. There are four reception rooms and as one would expect of a 17th Century home, they are packed with immense character and can be flexibly utilised. The house is believed to date back to 1640 with later additions to the rear.

Nb. Plans have been drawn by Dobson Jackman, Architects of Macclesfield for restoration and conversion of the existing outbuilding into guest bedroom and bathroom plus modest " infill extension" to form new single storey two bedroom property. Plans passed by Cheshire East Council (20/3159N) on 3rd March 2022.
