Dunham-On-The-HillFrodsham, Cheshire, WA6 0LX

Manor Farm is a beautifully presented Grade II listed house dating from 1676, occupying a prominent position within the heart of the sought-after Cheshire village of Dunham-on-the-Hill, itself within a conservation area. Thoughtfully restored and sympathetically improved by the current owners, the property combines a wealth of historic character with stylish contemporary finishes, creating an exceptional family home of considerable charm and distinction.

Approached through attractive walled gardens, the house immediately impresses with its handsome period façade and welcoming entrance. Internally, the accommodation extends to over 2,300 sq ft and is arranged over three floors, offering versatile and well-balanced living space.

The principal reception rooms are particularly impressive. The elegant dining room features a striking oak-panelled period fireplace with a wood-burning stove. It provides an ideal setting for both formal entertaining and everyday family life. The magnificent living room is a notable highlight, with exposed beams, a vaulted ceiling and a substantial fireplace with wood burning stove creating a wonderfully atmospheric focal point. Elegant windows and carefully designed interiors bring warmth and natural light throughout the home.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of traditional-style cabinetry and wooden worktops, complemented by a cream AGA and double Belfast sink, which enhance its timeless country-house character. Further practical accommodation includes a utility room, cloakroom and boot room with external access providing valuable day-to-day functionality. A well-appointed family bathroom together with a separate shower room complete the ground floor accommodation. A cellar provides useful ancillary storage.

The first floor hosts four elegant bedrooms, all enjoying distinctive period detailing, including exposed beams and original fireplaces. The generously proportioned principal bedroom is a particular highlight, combining character, space and comfort in equal measure. Two substantial attic rooms occupy the second floor and offer considerable flexibility, whether used as hobby rooms, home working spaces, occasional accommodation or further ancillary living areas, subject to any necessary consents.

Outside, Manor Farm enjoys beautifully landscaped formal gardens enclosed by attractive brick walls. Well-stocked borders, pathways and mature planting create a delightful setting to the front of the house, while a series of sheltered courtyard gardens and seating areas provide ideal spaces for outdoor dining and entertaining. The property benefits from extensive parking within a large, enclosed courtyard and is complemented by a substantial detached outbuilding, offering excellent storage, workshop space or potential for a variety of alternative uses, subject to the necessary permissions.

The result is a highly individual heritage home that successfully balances period integrity with modern comfort, offering character-filled accommodation in a popular Cheshire village setting.
