Modern method of auction- starting bid- £700,000

Rarely does an opportunity such as this come to the market. Nestled in the heart of the highly sought-after village of Mow Cop, this substantial and character-filled detached cottage occupies an exceptional plot extending to approximately two acres, enjoying breathtaking panoramic views stretching for miles across the surrounding Cheshire and Staffordshire countryside.

Having been lovingly maintained over the years, the property offers the perfect balance of charm and potential. Rich in original character features, including exposed beams and fireplaces, the home provides generous and versatile accommodation throughout, whilst still presenting an exciting opportunity for a purchaser to modernise and create their dream countryside residence. Whether seeking a spacious family home, multi-generational living arrangement, or a property with future development potential (subject to any necessary consents), this unique home offers endless possibilities.

The accommodation begins with a welcoming dining room, forming the heart of the home and providing access to the principal living spaces. From here, there is a cottage-style kitchen, a cosy snug with feature open fireplace, rear porch, and a substantial lounge with fireplace. The lounge flows through to a bar area, creating a fantastic space for entertaining family and friends. Beyond this, an inner hallway leads to the shower room, fourth bedroom and an additional lounge. Benefitting from its own external entrance, this section of the property lends itself perfectly to use as a self-contained annexe for a dependent relative, guest accommodation, or potential home office suite.

To the first floor, the landing provides access to three well-proportioned bedrooms together with the family bathroom, all enjoying an abundance of natural light and pleasant outlooks over the surrounding grounds and countryside beyond.

Externally is where this remarkable property truly comes into its own. Occupying an impressive plot of approximately two acres, the grounds wrap beautifully around the home and provide an outstanding amount of outdoor space rarely found in today's market. Well-maintained gardens, open lawned areas and far-reaching rural views create a wonderful sense of privacy and tranquillity, allowing buyers to enjoy a true countryside lifestyle whilst remaining conveniently connected to local amenities.

Double gates open onto a spacious driveway with extensive parking available to the front and side of the property, comfortably accommodating multiple vehicles. Further parking and storage are provided by a detached double garage, whilst a timber-built workshop/shed with power and lighting offers excellent versatility for hobbies, storage or workspace requirements. Completing the external offering is a useful stone-built outbuilding, ideal for additional outdoor storage.

Positioned within the historic hilltop village of Mow Cop, renowned for its iconic folly, spectacular scenery and countryside walks, the property enjoys the best of both worlds. A range of local amenities can be found nearby, with larger shopping facilities, supermarkets, schools and leisure amenities available in Congleton, Kidsgrove and Alsager. Excellent transport links are also close at hand, with convenient access to the A34, A500 and M6 motorway network, whilst nearby rail stations provide connections to Manchester, Stoke-on-Trent and beyond.

Properties offering such extensive grounds, characterful accommodation and truly outstanding views are exceptionally rare. This is a unique opportunity to acquire a distinctive countryside home with space, flexibility and enormous potential in one of the area's most desirable locations.
