This striking and quite unique 19th Century stone built cottage, extending to a sizeable 232 sq m (2497 sqft), with a total plot of 0.47 acres (or thereabouts) to include formal gardens and extensive driveway areas, would certainly be the feature property on any of these well known TV shows and this is your chance to take the rare opportunity of owning such a special home! Looking for spectacular panoramic views both far and wide which extend over the Cheshire Plain and beyond to the Welsh Mountains? Then look no further…the views from The Mount will leave you in awe!

Nestled within the highly desirable rural hamlet of Timbersbrook, and sat closed to the iconic Bosley Cloud; a prominent hill situated within Cheshire's Peak District on the border between Cheshire and Staffordshire. It is 343 metres (1,125 ft) in height making it one of the highest hills in the area and one of the best places to see spectacular views of Cheshire. Feel on top of the world after a little hard work walking up hill onto the summit of Bosley Cloud. You can see this outcrop from miles around and from the top you can see across the whole of the Cheshire Plain and along the gritstone ridge of Cheshire’s Peak District. The twisting country lanes are interesting to explore and offer enjoyable walks and are suitable for horse riding, as is the well known walking route of the ‘Gritstone Trail’ nearby and the Biddulph Valley Way bridle path.

The Mount is a stunningly gorgeous home with heaps of unbridled potential, which from its first floor takes full advantage of the "jaw dropping" vista across meadowland, with panoramic views over The Cheshire Plain, and on a clear day, as far as the Welsh Mountains. Amazing!

The Mount is embellished with a plethora of original features, such as its high ceilings, deep skirtings, leaded and stained glass windows, generous room proportions and not forgetting to mention its ample grounds, extensive lawns and plentiful parking. The property is connected to all main services and is gas centrally heated. There are solar panels generating up to 3.75kW and an electric vehicle charging point on the outside wall of the garage.

The kitchen features a gas fired Rayburn and is fitted with tasteful natural oak units. The rear porch offers stairs to the first floor, utility and cloakroom.

The first floor offers the master bedroom with en-suite, the views from here are just sublime. In addition there are three further bedrooms and large bathroom.
