Radcliffe Fold – A Magnificent Barn Conversion Dating Back to 1780
Country Holmes are delighted to present Radcliffe Fold, an exceptional four-bedroom barn conversion dating back to 1780, occupying a truly enviable countryside position surrounded by rolling fields, breath-taking panoramic views, and the tranquil sounds of nature.
Imagine starting your day with a morning coffee as the sun rises over Kinder Scout, whilst overlooking the immaculately maintained third fairway of Werneth Low Golf Club. Should you ever tire of the golf course outlook, the far-reaching countryside vistas extend across the landscape towards the Welsh Hills on a clear day.
At its heart, Radcliffe Fold is a substantial and welcoming family home, beautifully blending period character with modern comfort. Offering generous living accommodation throughout, it provides the perfect balance between sociable family spaces and peaceful retreats, all framed by spectacular rural scenery.
The accommodation begins with an elegant formal dining room featuring exposed beams, character brickwork and stylish LVT flooring. Windows to both the front and rear enjoy delightful countryside and golf course views, creating a wonderful setting for entertaining. A staircase rises to the first floor, whilst a useful guest cloakroom/WC with wash basin, exposed beams and wooden flooring is conveniently positioned nearby.
The spacious principal lounge is centred around a recently installed multi-fuel stove set within an attractive surround and stone hearth. Dual-aspect windows flood the room with natural light whilst framing the stunning views to both the front and rear. Newly fitted carpets add warmth and comfort to this inviting living space.
The impressive kitchen diner is perfectly designed for modern family life, featuring an extensive range of wall and base units, complementary work surfaces and a central breakfast island with integrated storage and seating. There is space for an larder fridge freezer, an integrated dishwasher, and a magnificent Rangemaster electric range cooker, available by separate negotiation. A rear-facing window overlooks the patio and Werneth Low golf course beyond, whilst the stone tiled floor enhances the farmhouse aesthetic.
A second reception room offers an entirely different atmosphere, with its dramatic vaulted ceiling, twin Velux roof windows, and beautiful Indian stone flooring. A cosy log burner creates a warm focal point, whilst doors open directly onto the paved patio, perfectly positioned to enjoy the surrounding countryside. An adjoining home office with pocket door provides an ideal space for remote working, with direct access to the outdoor seating area.
The first floor hosts four generous double bedrooms, each enjoying its own unique outlook across the surrounding landscape.
The stunning principal suite is a true highlight of the home, featuring a vaulted ceiling and a beautifully appointed en-suite bathroom. Continuing the vaulted design, the en-suite comprises a panelled bath with rainfall shower over, low-level WC and wash hand basin, all finished with elegant tiling.
From the principal bedroom, doors open onto a spectacular roof terrace – an extraordinary vantage point from which to enjoy sunsets, star-filled skies or perhaps Bonfire Night celebrations with a warm drink in hand.
The spacious family bathroom is equally impressive and features a freestanding roll-top bath, low-level WC, walk in shower, wash hand basin, mirrored cabinet, additional storage and attractive wooden flooring.
In addition to the immediate outdoor spaces surrounding the property, Radcliffe Fold enjoys a mature private garden situated across the lane. Beautifully landscaped with lawned areas, established shrubs and colourful planting, the garden also features a secluded seating area, providing the perfect setting for relaxation and outdoor entertaining.
The property benefits from ample off-road parking alongside the double garage.
Despite its idyllic rural setting, Radcliffe Fold enjoys excellent access to local amenities and transport links. Situated on the edge of Werneth Low Country Park, with Etherow Country Park just a short walk away, the property offers outstanding opportunities for walking, cycling and outdoor recreation.
Families are particularly well served, with Gee Cross Primary School approximately six minutes away by car and Alder Community High School, rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted, within easy cycling distance.
For everyday conveniences, nearby Romiley and Marple Bridge offer a wide selection of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, pubs and supermarkets.
Manchester city centre is readily accessible, being approximately 25 minutes by car. Alternatively, nearby Marple and Romiley railway stations provide frequent services to Manchester Piccadilly, with journey times of around 20 minutes, making this a superb location for commuters seeking the best of both countryside living and city connectivity.
A rare opportunity to acquire a truly special period home, combining historic character, outstanding views and an exceptional lifestyle setting.
