Lock 57 Cottage is a charming characterful home that dates back to the late 1700s, situated just moments from the scenic canal lock. The property boasts a private driveway, formal front garden with a water fountain, and a low-maintenance patio-paved rear garden perfect for outdoor dining and family enjoyment. Inside, the home oozes with character, featuring exposed wooden beams, a cozy multi-fuel burner, and a classic cottage-style kitchen with granite worktops and a traditional range cooker. The property also benefits from installed solar panels, reducing electricity bills by 75% or more, and an oil-fired boiler system for heating. With four spacious bedrooms, including one on the ground floor, and a huge bathroom suite, the property offers flexibility for families, home workers, or those seeking additional guest space. The peaceful setting, surrounded by countryside walks and wildlife, is still within easy reach of the market town of Sandbach's amenities, transport links, and well-regarded schools. This delightful home combines period charm with practical modern upgrades and a truly idyllic location, making it an exceptional opportunity for families seeking rural living without compromise.
