About this property
Unique Character Property in Superb Setting
Offering Huge Potential To Update, Improve and Develop
Set in Private 0.45 Acre Woodland Gardens
Built in Early 1900's as Part of Ravelstone Estate
The sale of Ravelstone Lodge represents an incredibly rare buying opportunity as the house has been in the same ownership since 1963. It is being offered for sale with no chain and offers exciting, significant potential for the new owners to take on the project, invest time and money and to create their forever home.
The house was built in the early 1900’s as the gate house for The Ravelstone Estate. It retains character features including beautiful parquet floors and rooms with high ceilings. It also enjoys a secluded position, set on a private road, surrounded by unspoilt woodland grounds. The plot extends to approximately 0.45 of an acre, with the mature gardens including a redundant swimming pool.
The house footprint extends to an impressive 2100 square feet (196 Sq m) and offers three living rooms, Kitchen and utility room, five bedrooms and bathroom.
The house and gardens need capital investment, modernisation and improvement but this also provides a blank canvass for new owners to personalise and adapt to suit their own taste.
Location
The property occupies a tucked away position on the edge of the rural village of Manley, widely regarded as one of the most sought-after parts of Cheshire. It is situated in a rural yet most accessible area with local services just a few miles away in the market town of Frodsham. More comprehensive services are available in Chester which is approximately 9 miles away. Manley village, Alvanley and Ashton Hayes primary schools are within easy reach. State secondary education is available at Helsby High School with private schools at Kings, Queens and Abbeygate schools in Chester and The Grange at Hartford.
On the recreational front there are golf courses at Helsby, Delamere, Sandiway and Tarporley, motor racing at Oulton Park, polo at Little Budworth and horse racing at Chester, Haydock and Aintree.
The area enjoys excellent road communications being four miles from junction 14 of the M56 motorway allowing for ease of access to the M6 and national motorway network permitting daily travel to Chester, Warrington, Manchester and Liverpool. Liverpool and Manchester international airports are within 30 minutes drive and there are good rail links to London with a two hour inter-city service to Euston from local stations.
Mouldsworth and Alvanley are delightful adjoining villages to Manley each with a village pub.
