Charnwood

Charnwood is an elegant natural stone built home occupying a private half-acre setting off leafy Greendale Lane in Mottram St. Andrew, Cheshire. This home offers contemporary living accommodation in the region of 6,000 sq ft across three levels: a basement, ground and first floor, and includes five bedrooms, four bathrooms, two principal reception rooms, a handcrafted kitchen with breakfast area, media suite, utility room, boot room, basement wine store and swimming pool with sauna, changing room and a ‘spa bar’ / air conditioned gym.

This development is a thoughtful extension and remodelling of an existing dwelling. The design is a contemporary interpretation of traditional ‘arts & crafts’ style architecture employing a mix of high quality materials. The site benefits from a feeling of seclusion provided by the existing trees and hedgerows, although distant views of the rolling Cheshire countryside provide a magnificent setting. These views became the focal point for the house, with high levels of glazing enabling a strong visual link between inside and out.
