A Rare Tudor Gem with Exceptional Modern Elegance

This is without question one of the most special homes we have ever had the privilege to bring to market. With origins tracing back to Tudor times, this farmhouse residence offering accommodation of over 3000sqft blends centuries of heritage with a stunning, sympathetic renovation that celebrates its character while introducing refined, contemporary comfort. Every detail has been considered, every finish thoughtfully chosen, creating a home that is both deeply stylish and wonderfully liveable.

The Location

Set in the tranquil hamlet of Brownlow, the property offers the charm and seclusion of a countryside retreat, while remaining within easy reach of Congleton, Sandbach, and Holmes Chapel. The M6 motorway is just 10 minutes away, Manchester Airport can be reached in 30 minutes, and both private and state schools of repute are close by. For leisure, golf courses, equestrian facilities, gyms, and country pursuits are all on the doorstep, while the renowned Brownlow Inn and the Blue Bell Inn offer exceptional dining and a welcoming community spirit.

The Home

Step inside and the sense of history is immediate – exposed oak beams, purlins, and stone walls ground the home in its Tudor past, while bespoke cabinetry and handcrafted kitchen by Tom Howley, and carefully selected finishes demonstrate a clear passion for quality and design.

Key living spaces include:

• Drawing Room with exposed beams, oak staircase, and a Clearview stove framed within a stone fireplace.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom suite is an indulgent retreat, complete with freestanding roll-top bath, a luxurious en-suite with His & Hers showers, and a fitted dressing room. Two further bedrooms, bathroom, and a playroom/office complete the first floor.

The Grounds – close to 0.7 acres

Beyond the gates, a sweeping gravel driveway leads to a detached triple garage with solar panels and battery system. The gardens are a true delight, with extensive Indian stone terraces, manicured lawns, a central water feature, and beautifully stocked borders. A porcelain-tiled courtyard with an all-weather gazebo creates the perfect entertaining space, while a dedicated children’s area with treehouse, swings, and sandpit makes this a home for all generations.
