Long Lane, Tarporley

Butters John Bee are delighted to present this remarkable and highly individual home, offering an exceptional combination of character, generous accommodation and exciting lifestyle opportunities. A property that offers far more than first impressions might suggest and one that really does need to be seen to be fully appreciated.

Behind the charming façade of what appears to be a traditional country cottage lies a surprisingly substantial and exceptionally versatile residence, extending to over 2,300 sq ft. Having undergone considerable renovation and extension, the property has evolved into a home that offers not only impressive accommodation but also a degree of flexibility rarely found in this location.

Situated in the popular rural hamlet of Alpraham, close to the highly regarded village of Tarporley, this is an opportunity that will appeal to a variety of buyers, whether seeking a home for multi-generational living, an established holiday letting opportunity, a substantial family residence or simply a property offering space and freedom to enjoy a more rural lifestyle.

A HOME WITH AN ESTABLISHED INCOME OPPORTUNITY

One of the most interesting aspects of this property is the way in which the current owners have successfully made use of its versatile layout. The front section of the house has been operated as an Airbnb, attracting regular bookings every weekend, whilst the adjoining annexe provides the family's own private living accommodation.

This arrangement demonstrates the property's remarkable potential, allowing a purchaser to continue with a similar lifestyle, enjoying their own private living space alongside the opportunity to generate additional income. Alternatively, the accommodation could provide an ideal solution for extended or multi-generational families, with parents, adult children or other relatives able to enjoy a degree of independence whilst remaining conveniently close.

Importantly, this is not simply a conventional house with a modest annexe. The two living wings each benefit from their own generous kitchen/dining facilities and well-appointed bathroom or shower accommodation, with bedrooms arranged across both ground and first floors. The result is a genuinely adaptable home in which different generations or households can enjoy their own space and privacy.

For those with different requirements, there is also the opportunity to bring the accommodation together to create one impressive family home, with generous space for entertaining, working from home, hobbies and everyday family life. Few properties offer quite so many possibilities from the outset.

SOUTH-FACING GROUNDS

Perhaps the biggest surprise, however, awaits outside. The grounds incorporate attractive established gardens together with a sizeable adjoining paddock, all enjoying a particularly desirable southerly aspect.

In an area where properties offering this amount of land are increasingly difficult to find, this is a considerable attraction in its own right. The gardens provide a wonderful setting for outdoor entertaining and relaxation, whilst the paddock offers genuine usable space and an exciting opportunity for those looking to embrace a little more of the country lifestyle.

Whether your aspirations include keeping a pony, donkey or small livestock, creating a kitchen garden, providing space for children to explore or simply enjoying the freedom and privacy of your own grounds, the possibilities are plentiful.

A PROPERTY THAT CAN EVOLVE WITH YOU

What makes this home particularly special is that it does not dictate how it should be lived in. Its current arrangement already provides an established combination of private family accommodation and holiday letting potential, but its future could look very different depending on the needs and imagination of its next owners.

Perhaps you are looking for a home that brings generations of family together, an opportunity to combine home and business, additional accommodation for guests or relatives, or simply a substantial country residence with room for everyone and everything. The existing accommodation provides an excellent foundation, with further scope to adapt and personalise to suit individual requirements, subject to any necessary consents.

THE BEST OF RURAL CHESHIRE

Alpraham enjoys an attractive position within the Cheshire countryside, with the ever-popular village of Tarporley close by. Renowned for its independent shops, welcoming public houses, restaurants and cafés, Tarporley offers a wonderful village lifestyle, whilst the surrounding countryside provides abundant opportunities for walking, cycling and enjoying the outdoors. Chester, Nantwich and the wider road network are also within convenient reach.

INDIVIDUAL IN CHARACTER, EXCEPTIONAL IN ITS SETTING AND WONDERFULLY VERSATILE IN ITS ACCOMMODATION.

Whether your interest lies in the established Airbnb opportunity, the potential for multi-generational living, the appeal of a substantial family home or simply the luxury of the South-facing Cheshire countryside, this is a property that offers something genuinely different.

A rare opportunity to acquire a home with so much already in place, yet with so many possibilities still to explore. Offered for sale with no onward chain.
