Lach Dennis, Lostock Green and Swan Green enjoying a tranquil ambience within
prime Cheshire countryside. The hamlet of Lach Dennis is centrally located
within the county and is in close proximity to Northwich which offer an
unrivalled variety supermarkets in addition to cafes, restaurants, high street
banks, doctors and dentist surgeries and specialist retailers.

Leftwich with an Outstanding Ofsted rating. There are exceptional independent

The Accommodation
The Hulse is believed to date from the mid - 17th century being constructed of
Cheshire brick with wattle and daub elevations under a tiled roof and forms
the principal portion of what was formerly known as Smith Cottage. The façade
is particularly attractive with exposed timbers, chocolate box features
complemented by country cottage style gardens and character charm throughout.
The house has been within the vendor’s ownership since 2008 and is very much
original in its state, there is no doubt it would benefit from a scheme of
modernisation to cater for modern day living ideal for those with a growing
family or indeed potential downsizers who wish to retain the scale of a larger
country home. Despite the foregoing, the property has 2 bedrooms and 2
reception rooms arranged over approximately 1, 150 sq. ft. Of living
accommodation set in an impressive half acre plot.
The property is typically accessed from the rear through a side door into a
utility and boot room off which is a cloakroom. This opens into a breakfast
area and adjoining kitchen with fitted base units, integrated dishwasher and
Rangemaster lpg cooker. Adjacent is the dining room with staircase to the
first floor and access is also gained to the office and the bathroom which
requires modernisation. The sitting room is particularly comfortable
comprising a feature open fireplace with incorporated ovens and the original
wattle and daub exposed. There is also an access to the front of the property.
On the first floor are 2 good sized bedrooms with a - frame timbers and
excellent head room.
Outside
The property is accessed over a partially gravelled drive onto a parking area
at the side of the property. On the driveway is a former barn constructed of
brick albeit it is currently dilapidated. The vendor has submitted a planning
application for conversion into a dwelling - 22/01017/lbc - although the
application is currently on hold due to the impending sale. To the side of the
property is a garage providing ample storage space. The south facing mature
gardens are a profound feature of The Hulse being dispersed with established
fruit trees to include apples, pears, cherry and plum. The gardens are
currently apportioned into lawn, livestock enclosure and paddock to the
southern boundary creating a diverse outside area complemented by a further
garden store split into 2 rooms. There is an original covered well in the
