Situation
Windmill Wood is approximately 1.6 miles from the centre of Knutsford off the premium residential road of Goughs Lane and Chelford Road. The woodland benefits from excellent transport links, with Junction 19 of the M6 just 4.5 miles away and the M56 is in close proximity. The closest train station is in Knutsford ideal for those commuting to Manchester or Chester offering a direct hourly service. There are international airports at Manchester and Liverpool respectively.

The Woodland
Windmill Wood has been owned and lovingly looked after by one family for nearly 40 years and was first established by the Toft Estate in the mid 19th century. The wood is a stunning haven for wildlife but also contains considerable mature timber, including significant stands for beech, oak, larch, Scots pine and yews. Leisure and recreational uses sympathetic to the woodland setting are likely to be explored by potential purchasers. The woodland is traversed by woodland walks and meandering pathways and has a vehicular access from the Chelford Road on the eastern boundary.

Easements, wayleaves and rights of way
The property is sold subject to all existing easements, wayleaves and rights of way whether specified or not within these sales particulars. It is believed the woodland is traversed by a public right of way from Goughs Lane to Chelford Road along the northern boundary.

Tenure
The property is offered freehold with vacant possession upon completion.

Local Authority & Council Tax
Cheshire East Council.

Directions
From the centre of Knutsford take the A537 towards Macclesfield and Chelford. Continue straight on at the Booths Park roundabout. The main entrance to the wood is on the right hand side after about 0.5 miles. Alternatively, the woodland can be accessed by foot from Goughs Lane.
