Hobcroft Lane, Mobberley - 2 bed - £695,000 - Gascoigne Halman - Knutsford

Property details

Bedrooms: 2

Hobcroft Farm represents ideal opportunity for purchasers to own a private equestrian centre in a semi rural yet convenient position almost equidistant between Knutsford and Wilmslow, close to Mobberley Village. There is a detached two bedroom bungalow within its own gated gardens which are of a good size then immediately behind a courtyard with brick stables and barn as described in greater detail below. Good quality level fields surround the property and have lane access and water, enclosed by post and rail fencing and mature trees which extends to approximately 12 acres; absolutely ideal for those with equine interests. Furthermore, we believe the part open detached barn could be developed into an all weather ménage with the correct surfacing all accessed by a separate gated driveway with ample hard standing for horse boxes.
LOCATION
Within a short distance of Mobberley village which is one of the most sought after semi-rural villages, catering for day to day requirements and well located for easy access into Knutsford and Wilmslow town centres. Mobberley itself has its own rail station, providing frequent commuter service to Manchester, together with a number of well known public houses. The nearby town centres however cater for more comprehensive shopping facilities and include a number of larger retail outlets.
