THIS luxurious contemporary home set in magnificent landscaped gardens is our property of the week.
Cedarwood in Goughs Lane, Knutsford, could be yours for £2.3 million.
Created in 2009 in a unique and peaceful lifestyle retreat, the property is being marketed by Stuart Rushton & Co.
This exceptionally high quality sustainable family home is designed to blend effortlessly with its greenbelt surroundings.
Western Red Cedar is one of the few wood species that are naturally at home in the outdoors.
Its natural resistance to moisture, decay and insect damage make it the ideal choice for a surface that is exposed to sun, rain, heat and cold all year round.
Not only is cedar one of the world’s most durable woods, it also offers timeless natural warmth and beauty, mellowing with age without losing any of its weather resistant properties.
This sleek home, designed by award-winning architect Nicholas Tye, is situated in approximately one and a half acres of secluded grounds surrounded by woodland and overlooking a wild life sanctuary with a small mere.
Cedarwood literally combines the best of both worlds, being located within the greenbelt, semi-rural environment of Goughs Lane and beside to the prestigious Legh Road conservation area, yet is within easy walking distance of Knutsford town centre.
