A unique opportunity to acquire a substantial 4/5 bedroom former farmhouse with a modern 3-bedroom annexe, offering in excess of 4,000 sq ft of beautifully presented and versatile living accommodation. Located within the picturesque semi-rural hamlet of Gillow Heath, the property enjoys attractive countryside views and is positioned just a short stroll from a popular family-run pub and garden centre. This remarkable home provides exceptional flexibility for multi-generational living, extended family, or those seeking the option to combine both dwellings into one impressive residence.<br/><br/>Currently arranged as two independent dwellings, the property boasts an impressive total of five reception rooms, seven bedrooms and five bathrooms, blending traditional farmhouse character with modern comforts. The generous driveway provides ample parking, and the property is conveniently situated within easy reach of Congleton and Biddulph town centres.<br/><br/>One of the standout features is the tranquil rural outlook, with generous mature gardens to the rear of both the farmhouse and the annexe, offering excellent outdoor space for relaxation and recreation. The property also benefits from solar panels, which the vendors inform us are owned outright and included in the sale, providing the advantage of reduced energy bills (buyers are advised to confirm full details with their legal representative). Each dwelling has its own independent gas central heating boiler — the farmhouse boiler located in the kitchen and the annexe boiler in the utility room.<br/><br/><strong>FARMHOUSE</strong><br/><br/>The farmhouse accommodation comprises a welcoming reception hall with a bespoke timber turn-flight staircase rising to a spacious first-floor galleried landing. Ground floor rooms include a snug/bedroom five, a living room with log burner, an L-shaped family room, and a dining area enjoying views over the rear garden. A side entrance hall provides built-in cloaks storage and access to a modern shower room/w.c. The fitted dining kitchen includes built-in appliances and leads to a rear porch.<br/><br/>On the first floor, the generous galleried landing enjoys natural light from a front-facing window and provides access to four double bedrooms. The master bedroom features an en-suite shower room/w.c., a separate dressing room, a walk-in wardrobe, and a balcony overlooking the rear garden. A family bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation.<br/><br/><strong>ANNEXE</strong><br/><br/>The annexe offers its own private entrance hall, utility room, and a quality modern fitted kitchen with built-in appliances. A spacious dining area to the rear features French doors opening onto the garden, while the large living room includes a log burner. An inner hallway houses a hand-built oak turn-flight staircase and under-stairs storage. The ground floor also includes a modern shower room/w.c. and a double bedroom with built-in wardrobes and French doors to the front elevation.<br/><br/>The first-floor galleried landing benefits from a large skylight window. Two further double bedrooms are located on this level — one with a useful dressing room off, and the other with built-in wardrobes and extensive eaves storage. A quality L-shaped bathroom suite completes the accommodation.<br/><br/><strong>EXTERNALLY</strong><br/><br/>The property enjoys extensive off-road parking to the front and side elevations. To the rear are generous, mature, flat lawned gardens serving both the farmhouse and the annexe. A large and highly useful workshop/garage outbuilding is positioned to the rear of the annexe.<br/><br/>To experience the full scale and character of this unique and beautiful property, be sure to watch our video tour.<br/><br/>Farmhouse<br/><br/>ENTRANCE<br/>Open porch with door to:<br/><br/>ENTRANCE HALL<br/>Radiator.
