Location

Beautifully situated on the southern approach to Alderley Edge, this appealing development opportunity occupies a superb rural position, surrounded by open farmland, mature boundaries and uninterrupted countryside views. The site includes an existing agricultural building with scope for high quality residential conversion, offering purchasers the rare chance to create a bespoke home in one of Cheshire’s most desirable semi rural settings.

Accessed directly from Chelford Road and framed by the gently undulating landscape shown on the site plan, the land enjoys an exceptional sense of space and privacy while remaining moments from the vibrant village of Alderley Edge (1.6 miles). Renowned for its boutiques, cafés, restaurants and thriving social scene, the village is complemented by the nearby centres of Wilmslow (3.8 miles) and Macclesfield (9 miles), both providing extensive amenities and mainline rail services, including direct links to London Euston.

The location is perfectly suited to those seeking a balance of countryside living and modern convenience. Local footpaths, cycle routes and bridleways connect directly into the surrounding landscape, while leisure attractions such as Redesmere Lake, several golf courses and the western reaches of the Peak District National Park (12 miles) are just a short drive away. Families are well served by excellent nearby schools, including The Ryleys (1.1 miles) and King’s School Macclesfield (7.5 miles).

Transport connectivity is a key advantage. Manchester Airport lies approximately 7.1 miles away, with the M6, M56 and Manchester city centre (16 miles) all within comfortable commuting distance, providing swift access across the North West’s commercial centres. Despite this enviable accessibility, the setting retains a distinctly rural ambience making the proposed conversion particularly attractive for those seeking a lifestyle led home in peaceful countryside, yet with urban amenities close at hand.

Description

This unique combination of a scenic rural plot, convenient location and the opportunity to transform an existing agricultural building into a high quality residential dwelling places the site firmly amongst the region’s most appealing small scale development prospects.
Planning Reference 23/2016M grants consent for the conversion of the existing agricultural building, set within approximately 2.28 acres into a substantial single residential dwelling. The approved architectural scheme by Jay Ashall Partnership authorises a comprehensive transformation of the building, including reconfigured openings, upgraded elevations and a complete redesign of the internal layout.

The approved ground floor plan sets out an extensive arrangement comprising an open plan kitchen, dining and living space, alongside a study, utility accommodation and a striking leisure wing incorporating a swimming pool, steam room and sauna. The first floor provides an indulgent principal suite with twin dressing rooms, en suite and sitting area to the bedroom in addition to four further en suite bedrooms and a spacious gym.

Based on the approved plans, the completed dwelling is expected to extend to approximately 5,000 sq ft, subject to final measured survey and construction detailing.
