4 bed Detached House For Sale
Ivy Cottage, Street Lane, Lower Whitley, WA4

Nestled within the serene village of Lower Whitley, Ivy Cottage is an exceptional detached residence set within private landscaped grounds of around half an acre. Bearing a datestone of 1857, this stunning detached cottage has been sympathetically restored by our clients blending period charm with modern comfort and sophistication.

Accessed via twin five-bar gates leading to a sweeping gravelled in-and-out driveway, the main residence and adjoining coachman's cottage offer over 2,2000 sq ft of elegantly appointed accommodation. Features include a welcoming reception porch and hallway with tiled flooring, two formal reception rooms with period fire surrounds, a stunning open-plan kitchen/dining area with a range style oven whilst a large conservatory links the main residence to the cottage. The first floor of the main house features three generously sized bedrooms and a luxury bathroom with a freestanding bath. The adjacent coachman's cottage—thoughtfully incorporated—offers a self-contained suite including a bedroom, bathroom, lounge, and additional ground floor space with utility and boot rooms is a perfect guest suite, a work-from-home arrangement or for those with a dependent relative.

Externally, the meticulously landscaped gardens offer a tranquil retreat, with a westerly-facing rear lawn, mature borders, greenhouse, and patio seating. The original stable and hay loft remain intact and present considerable potential for further development, subject to planning. There is plentiful parking space whilst a more recently constructed double garage provides covered parking. For those thinking of efficiency, the cottage is double glazed and heating is provided by a ground source heat pump and new replaced boiler (spring 2025).

This distinguished property presents a rare opportunity to reside in one of Cheshire's most desirable locations.
