A 'VERY pretty' Grade II listed farmhouse on a quiet country lane just minutes from Manchester Airport has been put up for sale.

The four-bedroom period home, and substantial detached one-bedroom bungalow annex, sits within a third-of-an-acre plot off Holly Lane in Styal.

Boasting a 'characterful façade', the property is being marketed at £985,000 by estate agents Stuart Rushton & Co.

The property listing on Rightmove reads: "The main house boasts a stunning characterful façade, with the charm and character continuing throughout the interior accommodation.

"The ground floor includes a large lounge and sitting room, both of which boast exposed beams and log burning stoves, a fitted breakfast kitchen, utility room with downstairs toilet, a glazed dining room and large study.

"The first floor reveals four spacious double bedrooms, one of which boasts a walk-in wardrobe and en suite shower room, and a main family bathroom.

"The annex offers nearly 1,100sqft of space, two thirds of which has been converted (and recently renovated) into a light and spacious one-bedroom annex, with three large storerooms adjoining, which could be utilised to create larger residential accommodation and more bedrooms.

"Mature landscaped gardens sit to all sides of both properties and a large driveway runs down one side of the plot.

"The property sits behind electric gates, upon a pretty and quiet lane, which is most convenient for local schools and amenities, Manchester Airport, the motorway network and Wilmslow town centre."
