Rose Farm is understood to date back as far as the 1600's and is situated in quite an idyllic location in the heart of this much sought after and prestigious Cheshire village. Flanked by private and beautifully landscaped gardens, Rose Farm would be ideal as a family home particularly those with equine interests as a long gravelled driveway also provides access to the stable block and surrounding paddock land of just under 3 acres. A second drive could be used as a separate access to the property should the option of building a granny flat be taken up. A superb vista in a south westerly aspect over surrounding countryside completes this most desirable setting. In addition and detailed below we draw your attention to the newly built detached studio with gallery over, which could easily be adapted to be an office for those who work from home or adapted to be used by a dependant relative or au-pair. Rose Farm has planning permission for further extension to the main property and plans are available at the agents office under Application No: 02/1198P.
LOCATION
Over Peover is a pretty semi-rural Cheshire village situated almost equidistant between the towns of Knutsford, Alderley Edge, Wilmslow, Holmes Chapel and the village of Chelford. Surrounded by rolling countryside the property is by no means isolated and is within easy reach of two good public houses. The 'Corner Shoppe' at Chelford roundabout offers a post office and essential shopping. For the commuter the property is particularly well placed and within easy reach of the nearby motorway network and Manchester International Airport. The rail stations at Knutsford, Wilmslow, Macclesfield and Chelford provide fast links and a gateway to most commercial Cities. Excellent educational facilities are available to suit children of most ages in both the state and private sectors, the village primary school being one of particular note. For the sports person the leisure centres in both Knutsford, Wilmslow and Holmes Chapel cater for most sporting requirements and there are a number of notable golf courses nearby.
DIRECTIONS
From the roundabout in Canute Square leave Knutsford town along Toft Road (A50) heading in the direction of Holmes Chapel. Upon reaching The Whipping Stocks public house on your left, turn left onto Stocks Lane and follow the road through the village passing the Park Gate public house on your left. Pass Over Peover Primary School on your left and over the crossroads passing the Dog Inn public house on your left and after the row of cottages on your left a gravelled gated driveway will be seen on your left leading up to Rose Farm. From Chelford roundabout follow the turn off with the 'Corner Shoppe' on your left. Follow the country road over a railway bridge to the end, where you turn right and then immediately left. Rose Farm is on the right, second driveway on the right after the post box (on your right).

EXTERNALLY
Rose Farm is approached over a long gravelled driveway which not only provides ample off road parking for several vehicles but access to the detached double garage, presently used as a studio, stable block and access onto the adjacent paddocks, ideal for those with a horse box/trailer. Formal gardens have been landscaped predominantly to the front, side and rear of Rose Farm and to the keen gardener there is an abundance of mature specimen trees, plants and shrubs in part arranged to a Japanese theme around a large ornamental pond. These extensive well tended to gardens have a very private aspect and overlook the surrounding paddock land, in all approximately 2.89 acres or thereabouts. The gardens were designed by the vendor who is a professional garden designer and landscaper. Intended to be a stroll garden, there is a series of garden rooms which incorporate water and rock features. The planting has a strong evergreen content and has good colour and interest all year round. The garden has featured on television and has been opened for charity. Incorporated in the three acre fields is a fenced in circle of specialised trees. The fields are fenced into three paddocks and well maintained fencing and hedging.
