Woodhouse End Road, Gawsworth, Macclesfield, SK11 9QT

Built in 1919, Oak Tree Cottage was originally one of five smallholdings established to provide returning soldiers with a sustainable agricultural livelihood.

Over the past 28 years, the current owners have carefully and sympathetically extended and enhanced the property, creating a truly exceptional home set within the picturesque Cheshire countryside.

The well-appointed accommodation briefly comprises a porch leading into an impressive entrance hall with a vaulted ceiling, a spacious 28-foot lounge with a multi-fuel stove, a conservatory, dining room, kitchen, utility room, and a WC to the ground floor.

To the first floor are three bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en suite, alongside a contemporary family shower room.

The property further benefits from oil-fired central heating and double glazing throughout.

Occupying a plot of approximately half an acre, the cottage is surrounded by beautifully maintained gardens on all sides, complemented by a generous driveway.

A charming wildflower meadow adds to the setting, while beyond the garden lies an additional acre of pasture land acquired by the current owners, enjoying far-reaching views across open farmland.
