This property is a substantial country house situated in Cuddington, near Malpas in Cheshire, England. The listing describes it as a ‘first-class residential farm’ indicating that it comes with extensive land and outbuildings. The house itself appears to be a traditional brick structure, and the interior photos show a property which is currently habitable, but some updating may be required to modernize it to meet the expectations of contemporary buyers. The kitchen and living room, in particular, show signs of outdated design choices.

The property’s main selling point is the expansive land it encompasses. There are large fields, and a range of outbuildings, some in need of repair and renovation. The potential for these outbuildings is significant; they could be converted into additional living space, workshops, or other uses, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions. However, this would likely involve significant investment.

The listing mentions separate traditional buildings with planning consent for two dwellings in approximately 0.61 acres, suggesting an opportunity for further development and income generation. However, potential buyers need to clarify the details of these permissions and conduct due diligence to ensure they are still valid and suitable for their plans.

In terms of location, the property benefits from a tranquil rural setting, but this will be a drawback for buyers who require easy access to major transportation hubs. The closest schools are a reasonable driving distance away, some rated ‘good’ by Ofsted. Overall, this is a property that will appeal to buyers seeking a large property with significant land and outbuildings in a picturesque rural location, who are prepared to undertake renovations and potential further developments. The price reflects the overall package; however, a comprehensive survey and assessment of the condition of the property and outbuildings are strongly recommended before purchase.

Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
