The Property

Looking for spectacular views both far and wide? OVERLANDS or more affectionately known locally as 'LLamaland' is a wonderfully positioned detached family home developed by the famous Mr Pedley, a well renowned builder of some repute.

It sits in a fantastic location in Timbersbrook, an area of outstanding natural beauty, complemented with equestrian facilities, grounds and grazing which totals 8.5 acres or thereabouts.

Discreet superb approach and glorious views with a swimming pool house, sauna and numerous stables.

A place in the country, located in the heart of Cheshire within the stunningly picturesque rural locality of Timbersbrook, surrounded by countryside, extensive views across meadowland with panoramic views over the Cheshire Plain and on a clear day as far as the Welsh Mountains.

Positioned close to Bosley Cloud, a prominent hill owned by the National Trust, popular with ramblers and local folk who, once at its pinnacle, enjoy the breath-taking, far reaching views over adjoining counties.

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.

Practically the towns of Macclesfield and Congleton are within nine miles and three miles respectively, with Manchester Airport some 15 miles away offering flights to worldwide destinations.

The main town of Macclesfield, is offered with its mainline railway station (London Euston in approx 1hr 45mins), excellent schools including Beech Hall Preparatory School, Kings School and a range of highly regarded secondary schools.

The town offers an array of high street stores, shops, bars and restaurants.

Equally the charming market town of Congleton is blessed with a thriving range of facilities, boasts a Marks & Spencer Simply Food, Tesco, butchers, florists and newsagents as well as essential services such as chemists, doctors and dentists.

Locally, the village of Mossley is just a short journey down Reades Lane and provides a wide range of amenities including great pubs, a chip shop, chemist, post office, hairdressers, newsagents etc.

Mossley is also home to the bustling train station giving access to both north and south. London Euston can be reached within two hours. Manchester Airport can be reached within 35 minutes.

Schools in both public and state sector are readily accessible and a wide range of leisure facilities such as golf clubs, shooting clubs and equestrian facilities are nearby.

Overlands is set back from the road behind an automated gated entrance and approached by a long sweeping driveway, with the formal grounds being a hugely attractive asset to this tremendous discerning residence.

The huge separate pool house with sauna is immediately adjacent to the main house and with some clever thought could be linked, making an early morning dip a regular start to the day.

The ground floor offers an impressive hallway, with feature staircase, with a selection of doors and openings leading to the principal rooms, namely the dining room with views over the front gardens, and the main sitting room with quite literally breath-taking views over the Cheshire Plain and the large family dining kitchen having an oil-fired range cooker.

From the opposite end of the property are the two principal bedrooms and the main family bathroom.

The first floor is accessed via a delightful wrought iron staircase where you will find two double bedrooms and bathroom.

Plus, there is a storeroom with secret door which opens to stairs, taking you down into the attached garage.

The land is all within secure boundary fencing and dry-stone walls and extends to approximately 8.5 acres of good grazing and mowable land.

Useful access to the land is found directly from the curtilage of the property and a secondary access is provided off Tunstall Road too. There are also numerous stables to cater for up to 12 horses.

Outside, as befits a residence of such calibre and as mentioned above, are the private and formal gardens, which will only truly be appreciated with the undertaking of a viewing, and by viewing our online video tour.

There is an extensive driveway which allows parking for numerous vehicles, motor home, caravans, trailers, horse boxes etc.
