1 The Old Stables, Green Lane, Moston, Sandbach CW11 3QG

Nestled amidst fields on a quiet country lane, 1 The Old Stables is rural, but not remote, surprisingly accessible to the M6 and the nearby market town of Sandbach.

Farmland & mature hedgerows provide a buffer of green, as you enter this small exclusive development of three barn conversions through smart electric gates. There are many parking options with guest spaces to the right, designated spots in the courtyard in front of the home as well as your own garage.

Originally for equine use of the neighbouring farm, The Old Stables were converted in 2017 to create three high quality and private barn conversions retaining a number of characterful features.

Head inside to the wide and welcoming entrance hall. It feels spacious as natural light cascades down from the stairwell or the window to the front. Instantly sense the homely, warm welcome of 1 The Old Stables upon arrival. The tiling underfoot adds continuity as you flow through into the welcoming open plan kitchen diner.

The real hub of the home is this magnificent kitchen. Bespoke shaker style doors add to the contemporary, countryside living feeling and there is plentiful storage within the cabinetry along three walls which embrace the central island. Enjoy casual dining or that long morning coffee from the breakfast bar or for more formal meals, there is the large dining table in the middle of the room.

You’ll notice there is room for further comfort with a sofa in this space and in the corner of the room, a practical utility room for keeping on top of household tasks in private. If the internal dining options weren’t enough, the current owners have added in French doors from the kitchen diner to the rear patio where a wooden gazebo provides the opportunity to entertain al fresco as you enjoy the verdant vistas beyond.

Gentle steps from the patio lead to a vast lawn area. There is privacy hedging to either side and a delightful assortment of blossom and fruit trees. Consider utilising this space for children to run around and play whilst sheep roam freely in the farmland at the rear and fields roll gently into the horizon.

Back inside, and across the other side of the hallway is the living room. With wooden flooring and a log burner as the focal point along the rear wall, a feeling of warmth and coziness pervades the air in here. The whole family can congregate in here and a set of French doors open to the front courtyard to allow those summer breezes to drift in.

Returning to the hall, notice the handy WC tucked neatly beneath the turn of the staircase before ascending to the first floor.

The current owners have thoughtfully added a window opposite the landing to allow natural light to flood in and a glimpse of those stunning rural views is possible.

Turning right you will find the spacious master bedroom. The vaulted ceiling here adds drama and creates a special place for the owners of the home to relax and unwind. Carpeted underfoot, a super-king size bed is against the neutral toned walls with room for sturdy oak furniture elsewhere. The dressing area is illuminated by Velux windows above as well as glazed windows to the rear and side. Refresh in the ensuite, furnished with shower, wash basin and WC.

Along the landing you will see exposed beams above, a nod to the heritage of the home. To the right is the fourth bedroom. Excellent for those who work from home, this is currently used as an office with desks along one wall with a low level window the front allowing you to survey the courtyard and entrance.

The family bathroom is further along the landing, opposite bedroom three, and is equipped with a modern white suite including a bath tub with the added flexibility of a shower over whilst light beams in from the skylight above.

Bedroom three features pastel pink walls in its current guise as a child’s bedroom, with carpeted floors beneath your feet and more exposed beams above your head. At the end of the landing you’ll find bedroom two. A well proportioned double room, this works excellently for guests with easy access to the bathroom next door. A window to the rear allows you to take in the rural setting whilst the wooden beams make you feel sheltered by the solidity of the home.
