Property Details
Description
Prestbury is renowned for its beautiful, thatched cottages and character homes and Randall’s Cottage must be one of the finest examples. The property has been a well-loved home for many years and during the owner’s tenure the property has been beautifully maintained and updated to keep up with modern day living. The property stands in a surprisingly quiet plot at the end of Bouncer’s Lane within a minutes’ walk of the excellent amenities available in this popular village. The property retains a wealth of character including exposed brick and beamed walls, beamed ceilings, and leaded light windows as well as an exquisite fireplace in the principal sitting room. On the ground floor there is a generous open plan kitchen/dining/sitting room which is a wonderful space for a family to enjoy, there is also a cosy snug/TV room and an inviting sitting room with an open fireplace. Also, on the ground floor there are two bedrooms, a shower room and separate bathroom. On the first floor there is an impressive principal suite with a vaulted ceiling and exposed beams and a second bedroom. We feel, subject to necessary consents the property could be sympathetically extended without detracting from the garden space. Externally there is a block paved drive, a double garage with an adjoining home office and the gardens are compartmentalized, generous and private as well as being fully enclosed creating a safe place for pets and children.
