Property description
Haven: a sheltered place: a place sought for rest, and this little piece of serenity definitely meets that definition. Situated on a quiet, secluded road this property offers the chance to own the rural life with the convenience of the popular bustling town of Nantwich. Whilst the property does need some updating it retains many of its original features from back in its days as a two-up two-down cottage. From the parquet flooring, to the original quarry tiles, to the original wooden sash windows the house shows flashbacks of its roots and they do nothing other than add to the overall charm. Approached via a drive which sweeps around the front of the property and to the rear and has parking for several cars it then leads to its own paddock of approximately 3 acres. There is a modern double garage, various outhouses and sheds and the plot is more than generous overall. If you are looking for a lovely life in a little haven of your own then book your viewing today.
