About
Set within the highly regarded Cheshire hamlet of Smallwood, ‘Simfield House’ is an exceptional equestrian residence combining refined country living with the practicality and sophistication demanded by the modern rural lifestyle.
Approached via formal gates and an impressive sweeping golden gravel driveway, the property immediately conveys a sense of privacy, stature, and understated elegance.
The handsome detached farmhouse has been thoughtfully styled throughout, blending timeless character features with tasteful contemporary finishes to create a warm and inviting family home.
The beautifully proportioned accommodation extends to three generous double bedrooms, one single bedroom and three well-appointed bathrooms, perfectly suited to both family life and entertaining alike.
Light-filled reception spaces flow effortlessly from room to room, offering an ideal balance of comfort, versatility, and charm, whilst enjoying delightful views across the surrounding grounds.
Extending in total to approximately 5.5 acres, the grounds are a particular feature of the property and perfectly complement its equestrian credentials.
Lush grazing paddocks bordered by mature hedging and post-and-rail fencing provide excellent turnout, whilst the beautifully maintained formal gardens create an idyllic setting around the home itself.
The substantial golden gravel driveway enhances the sense of arrival and practicality alike, leading to an impressive stable block, useful detached garage stores, and extensive ancillary space suited to a variety of equestrian and countryside pursuits.
A true highlight of the property is its superb equestrian provision, carefully designed to appeal to discerning horse owners and countryside enthusiasts alike.
The grounds include well-maintained paddocks, a professional arena, an impressive brick stable block complete with tack room and feed store, together with a substantial barn incorporating additional storage and useful horsebox or tractor access.
Externally, the lifestyle offering continues with beautifully maintained gardens and a separate gated entrance leading to a substantial hardstanding yard with ample turning space - ideal for trailers, horseboxes, and ancillary vehicles.
Despite its idyllic rural setting, Simfield House remains exceptionally convenient for commuting, with excellent access to the A34, A50, and M6, whilst the sought-after market towns of Congleton and Sandbach are just a short drive away, offering an excellent selection of independent schools, boutique shopping, restaurants, and traditional Cheshire pubs.
Rarely does a home so effortlessly combine elegant family living with first-class equestrian facilities in such a desirable Cheshire location.
Simfield House represents a wonderful opportunity to acquire a truly special country home offering lifestyle, privacy, and prestige in equal measure.
