The property is well screened and secure with woodland forming two boundaries with fencing and an estate wall to the remainder.

Off a country lane, there are three sets of automatic gates to access the main house and once within the property there are glorious views over the landscaped grounds.

The nearby village of Chelford has a renowned butchers, post office and store for general day to day needs whilst Alderley Edge and Knutsford both provide a comprehensive range of specialist shops, quality super markets and a full range of facilities. The village railway station has a regular 33 minute service to Manchester city centre. Wilmslow station places London Euston under 2 hours away on the main West Coast Line.

Terra Nova school is close by, The Ryleys and Alderley Edge School for Girls are within easy reach and at senior level King's School Macclesfield and Wilmslow and Knutsford provide secondary education in the public sector. Many of Manchester’s premium schools have coaches from the area.

Golf courses abound in the area, livery yards are close by and there are excellent leisure clubs and facilities; all one would expect within one of the most affluent areas in the North West.

Access to the north-west’s commercial centres via the M6, M56 and M62 may be picked up from Knutsford or Holmes Chapel and the A34 provides a direct route to Manchester.

Description One of the finest homes in this area of Cheshire, Holly Tree House was bespoke built in the 1990’s to an incredibly high standard and has been meticulously upgraded and maintained in the intervening years.

The interior has been beautifully appointed with Brazilian mahogany imported to provide balustrades, doors, cabinetry and panelling to the duplex study and library. Intricate plasterwork adorns many of the rooms creating classic and timeless finesse.

The overall brief for the design of the property was to create a fabulous family home which is equally suitable for entertaining and this has been fulfilled in every respect. The leisure suite provides a wonderful heated swimming pool with a concealed electric cover, a refrigerated plunge pool, sauna and an air conditioned gym, all served by a beautifully appointed changing room.

The family areas include a bespoke kitchen with Gaggenau appliances and an AGA, granite surfaces and an island, opening into the family room and an adjoining orangery. This links to the family sitting room.

The formal entertaining areas include an impressive dining room, a reception hall and a large principal reception room which can equally double as a games/entertainment room if preferred.

The east wing of the house, well away from the family area, includes the sumptuous panelled library with a spiral staircase leading up to a panelled and fitted study/home office. A perfect retreat.

The master suite includes a large bedroom area with a triple aspect and balcony overlooking the grounds, a fitted dressing room and a newly appointed en suite bathroom. There are three further principal bedroom suites with dressing rooms, and a guest bedroom suite. Two further bedrooms are adjoining, allowing for the option of using one as a sitting room for a self-contained suite with a bathroom. The laundry is sensibly located on this floor.

A separate two bedroom cottage lies within the grounds, to the rear of the triple garage, and provides excellent separate accommodation for a housekeeper, grounds staff, an au pair or extended family and includes two bedrooms, a sitting room, a bathroom and kitchen.

COTTAGE OUTBUILDINGS

Gardens & GROUNDS The parkland setting is magnificent and extends to nearly 24 acres of rolling lawns and dense woodland, ensuring privacy and security. The formal gardens are roomed to provide variety and include a Japanese water garden within an enclave of glorious maple trees, with generations of Koi Carp and restful water fountains. A replica Japanese temple and superb lighting form a wonderful al fresco entertaining area away from the main house.

A secret garden lies beyond a pergola walkway and LED floodlit championship standard tennis court is concealed away from the house.

For those of a sporting nature, the professionally laid golf tee and green provide a wonderful opportunity for honing their skills and we understand there is space for a full size football field to be laid out. A stocked fishing lake will provide entertainment for those who prefer a more sedate challenge.

A helipad with inconspicuous landing lights and a pilot guidance aerial enables guests to arrive by air at any time of day or night.

The cobbled driveway is flanked by Cheshire brick gate posts and further security gates provide access to the main house and garaging.
