Property description
A unique family home situated in a charming rural position, close to Nantwich town centre.
Description
Holly Bank Farm is an attractive and highly individual former farmhouse. In recent years it has been thoroughly modernised, including the addition of a large sitting room and, more recently, an extended, fully refurbished kitchen, dining and sitting/family area. This detached country house is full of character and style and situated just a mile and a half from Nantwich town centre. Approached via a long private, gated drive, the house stands in lovely gardens and grounds, extending to about 0.72 acres, with an oak framed enclosed double garage.
The accommodation flows effortlessly across two floors, with the standout feature being the open plan kitchen extension, a contemporary space with floor to ceiling sliding doors opening directly onto the terrace and capturing beautiful views across the gardens towards the orchard.
The kitchen, extended and fully refurbished in 2025, is a truly unique feature of the home. Designed in a modern open plan style, it incorporates a dining area and a sitting/family area, the latter benefiting from underfloor heating, with sliding doors opening to the terrace for seamless indoor outdoor living. The kitchen includes a range of fitted cupboards and units with solid work surfaces, wine and drinks coolers, integrated fridge, freezer and dishwasher, and bespoke sliding cupboards for additional appliances. A striking Bertazzoni range cooker and a sociable breakfast bar complete the space.
A large utility room/boot room with access to the rear of the property, sits just off the kitchen, providing further storage and a separate WC. A study with a double aspect adjoins the kitchen, offering a quiet workspace.
From the kitchen, a door leads to the large sitting room at the rear of the house. This versatile reception room features a contemporary inset electric fire and bi-fold doors leading to the garden; there is scope to create an additional terrace here.
The second sitting room is a cosy and inviting space centred around a wood burning stove, with built in cupboards and shelving adding character and practicality.
Upstairs, there are four double bedrooms, including the principal suite which features a Juliet balcony, dressing room and en-suite bathroom with a separate shower. The three further double bedrooms all enjoy lovely rural views. The spacious family bathroom connects to one of the bedrooms, offering an optional Jack & Jill style en-suite.
Gardens, grounds & outbuildings
The gardens are a particular highlight, extending to about 0.72 acres. Peaceful and private, they encourage a variety of wildlife including birds, rabbits and foxes. Laid mainly to lawn with mature hedging, the space offers excellent privacy and is ideal for children’s play. The property is approached via a shared private drive with one neighbouring home, before splitting into a private gravelled driveway leading to the oak framed double garage.
A path leads from the drive to the terrace, where a circular paved entertaining area with a central firepit provides an inviting space for alfresco dining. Beyond the formal garden lies an orchard with pathways meandering through a wild meadow, offering a charming natural extension to the grounds. This could also be utilised as a paddock.
