A rare opportunity to acquire a piece of Prestbury’s heritage that offers the luxury and reliability of a new build. Situated in the absolute heart of the village, this detached, handmade Cheshire brick cottage has undergone a comprehensive, Architect-supervised transformation.
While many period homes require ongoing maintenance, this property was subject to a meticulous 'back-to-brick' renovation in 2021. This included a completely new roof, new insulation, new lintels, full electrical rewiring, new plumbing, and high-efficiency double glazing. The result is a home that retains its historic soul but delivers the warmth, energy efficiency, and low-maintenance lifestyle of a contemporary property—perfect for those seeking a high-quality 'lock-up-and-leave' or a stress-free family home.
Set just a short stroll from St Peter's Church, the railway station, and the village’s renowned restaurants, the location is unbeatable. Inside, the property balances open-plan living with cosy retreats. The ground floor features a sitting room with bi-folding doors and a dedicated family room with a feature wood-burning stove.
The heart of the home is the magnificent 21ft open-plan living kitchen. Designed for entertaining, it features shaker-style cabinetry, granite/quartz work surfaces, and a suite of integrated appliances. The space opens out onto the courtyard for seamless indoor-outdoor living via feature Crittall-style aluminium doors.
Upstairs, the principal suite rivals a boutique hotel, currently configured with a luxurious walk-in dressing room (easily reconverted to a fourth double bedroom if required) and a high-spec en-suite. Two further double bedrooms and a generously proportioned family bathroom complete the accommodation.
FUTURE POTENTIAL & PLANNING
Unusually for a village property, the house comes with extant planning permission for a further single-storey rear extension. Because the primary renovation works under this consent have already been completed, the permission is effectively 'locked in' and will not expire, offering the new owner the freedom to extend the ground floor footprint further at their leisure. Additionally, preliminary consideration has been given to altering this approval to a two-storey extension, should a new owner wish to increase the first-floor accommodation (subject to the necessary planning amendments).
The charming and historic village of Prestbury caters for most daily needs, whilst more extensive facilities may be found in Macclesfield, Wilmslow and Alderley Edge, all within short driving distance. Access points to the national motorway network, Inter-City rail travel to London and Manchester International Airport are all within 2 and 30 minutes drive of the property.
Directions: From our Prestbury office proceed past St Peter's Church where the property can be found on the right hand side just past the Admiral Rodney public house.
