Comment From Robert Reed
Between myself and Andrew Hayes, who runs our Frodsham office, we have a combined sixty years of experience in working in the beautiful semi rural areas between the Georgian High Street of Tarporley and the market town of Frodsham. Apart from this statement making us both sound old (!), it does demonstrate that we have come across pretty much every time of property one could imagine. However, even with this experience, we both agree that this stunning individual home, Long Moss, is a totally unique property, without comparison, both locally and more widely in the region.
This barn, which forms part of a select enclave of just four homes, is approached via an impressive sweeping driveway and enjoys proximity to the surrounding countryside and has the splendour of Delamere Forest within walking distance. It has been a much treasured family home, in the same ownership for many years standing.
Internally, this converted barn, which dates original from 1829, is a true one off. The first thing to note is the use of high grade building and natural materials that are in evidence throughout. Flag stone floors, exposed wooden beams, bespoke timber doors and windows, beautiful fireplaces, a pitch pine stair case, vaulted ceilings and beautifully crafted skirting boards and architraves are all showcased quite wonderfully. All joinery work has been carried out by Hurst Joinery, widely recognised as the leading specialist of their type in Cheshire.
