Set within just over a third of an acre of established landscaped gardens, Alderley Cottage occupies an elevated position above the Cheshire Plain with far-reaching views towards the Welsh hills, yet the village and its amenities remain a short stroll walk away.

Held within the same family for more than 80 years, the house is arranged around a late 17th Century core and has been expanded carefully over time, then comprehensively overhauled and remodelled in recent years, so the whole reads as a coherent composition rather than a contrast of old and new.

Leaded glazing, timber panelling and well-proportioned rooms retain the character expected of a period building, balanced by thoughful modernisation that allows it to function comfortably as a contemporary family home.

The house opens to a stone-flagged entrance hall centred on a statement oak staircase, illuminated by well-placed windows and rooflights that draw light through the plan.

The principal rooms are generous yet measured: a bespoke Tom Howley kitchen forms the centre of daily lift, while a light-filled drawing room lies beyond, both connected directly to the terraces and lawn through French doors and deep bay windows.

To the front, the dining room has a more intimate atmosphere, defined by honey-toned parquet flooring, leaded windows and timber panelling.

Upstairs are four double bedrooms including the principal suite, served by two further bathrooms, together with a fully self-contained suite incorporating its own kitchen, bedroom and en suite bathroom, suited to guests or independent living.

Subject to preference, this area could be transformed into a larger principal suite positioned to take full advantage of the long rear views across the Cheshire Plain.

GARDENS & GROUNDS Part of the joy of this property is that whilst it is a village house, it revels in incredible views.

Set on a gentle slope, the house is surrounded by nature with cobble and pea gravel pathways that meander some 0.36 acres of gardens; all beautifully landscaped, including a summer house and a terrace for entertaining.

A security gated entrance opens onto a stone sett driveway and detached double garage, with ample parking and turning area for numerous cars.

With its back to Congleton Road, the house occupies a central position in Alderley Edge, its white stucco facade well-screened by a mature hedge, providing a high degree of privacy.

Lease Details: The majority of the property is Freehold, with a small proportion that covers the drive and the garaging being held under a Leasehold title, with a term of 999 years from 25 December 1846.

No rent is payable. All to be confirmed by solicitors prior to purchase. Agents Note: The house is located within Alderley Edge Conservation Area. Brochure:
