A charming period cottage set in about half an acre, with planning permission approved to extend, offering superb potential in a sought after location.
Rock Cottage is a charming period home set in an elevated and highly sought after position, enjoying wonderful far reaching views across open countryside and towards the village church. Surrounded by rolling rural landscape, it offers a fabulous semi rural lifestyle with the rare advantage of approved planning permission to extend, creating an exciting opportunity to shape a truly special home.
Believed to date from 1828 and lying within a conservation area, the cottage carries a rich sense of history and character. Planning permission, granted in August 2025 (Cheshire West & Chester ref: 25/02522/FUL), allows for a two storey side extension, a part two storey/part single storey rear extension, and alterations to the driveway, giving enormous scope to enhance and reimagine the property.
The existing accommodation includes a sitting room, a further reception room, and a kitchen, with three bedrooms and a family bathroom on the first floor. The house now requires updating and modernisation, offering the opportunity to create a bespoke home in a superb setting.
Outside, the cottage sits centrally within its plot, which extends to about half an acre in all. The gardens are predominantly laid to lawn and offer exceptional potential for landscaping, outdoor living, and family enjoyment. A brick outbuilding provides further scope for conversion into a studio, hobby room or home office, subject to the necessary consents. Steps lead down to the road, and the property benefits from a private driveway.
Altogether, Rock Cottage represents a rare and exciting opportunity, a period home with charm, land, views and planning permission, all in a desirable semi rural location that promises a wonderful lifestyle and outstanding potential.
