Brookes Farm is a timeless, classic cottage, with spacious and highly versatile accommodation, comprising FOUR DOUBLE BEDROOMS, private OUTDOOR space, separate VEGETABLE PLOT and versatile 2-STOREY GARAGE/OUTBUILDING. Situated in the sought-after village of Hankelow, this charming extended cottage is perfect for those seeking to escape from the hustle and bustle of town/city life. It boasts a TRANQUIL VILLAGE SETTING in the PICTURESQUE RURAL SURROUNDINGS of the Cheshire countryside, yet is still convenient for facilities near and far, via easily accessible road and rail networks. Oozing with history, the original footprint of the cottage dates back to the mid-1800s and stands as a quintessentially English cottage. A SUBSTANTIAL EXTENSION in the 1980s created the current kitchen, two further reception rooms, and an upstairs double bedroom with en-suite.
