Manor Cottage - A Traditional Cheshire home with Contemporary Family Comfort

Nestled within 8 acres of private Cheshire countryside, our lovely family home perfectly balances traditional craftsmanship with modern luxury. Built in classic Cheshire brick with rich oak detailing, the residence offers a warm, sophisticated retreat just 15 minutes from vibrant local life.

The heart of the home is the expansive open-plan kitchen and dining/sitting area - a chef’s dream equipped with premium appliances. This family room is the heart of the home: we cook, socialise and it`s perfect area for watching a movie on the large smart TV with surround sound.

For cooler evenings, wood-burning stoves create a cosy atmosphere in the main social rooms. Upstairs, the master suite is a true sanctuary, featuring a private dressing room, a tasteful en-suite, and an oak-framed balcony with uninterrupted views over formal gardens. From here, the iconic Jodrell Bank Telescope creates a magnificent silhouette against the horizon.

With every bedroom hosting its own en-suite and ample storage, the home is as practical as it is beautiful. Enjoy the peace of rural living with the convenience of an award-winning gastropub just a 15-minute stroll away.

About the location

Snelson & Over Peover (officially known as Peover Superior) are 2 of Cheshire’s most sought-after rural gems, offering a "fairytale" village atmosphere. It is defined by its quiet country lanes, traditional Cheshire brick architecture, and a strong sense of community.

In a location like this, away from the "light dome" of major cities, the night sky is filled with stars and owls hoot in the distance. We encourage as much wildlife as possible and the garden is filled with native trees, wild flowers and hedging. We have an orchard and a large vegetable growing area surrounding the wildlife pond.
