Description

Old Hall is a most impressive Georgian country house which is entering the open market for the first time in over 40 years. Retaining a plethora of original features throughout with wonderful fireplaces, sash windows and elegant reception rooms, the property is a true must see for any lover of fine Georgian architecture.

Offering exceptional family accommodation of over 5800sq ft, the property boasts four grand receptions and of particular note the drawing room with its almost floor to ceiling sash windows provides superb entertaining space on a most elegant scale.

The Drawing room, morning room and dining room all face south and should a buyer wish to relocate the kitchen all three of these rooms would be strong candidates to create something very special.

The first floor offers six bedrooms including a principal room serviced via an en suite as well as a family bathroom and "Jack and Jill" en suite serving the remaining rooms. Four of these bedrooms enjoy the south facing aspect.

The property would now benefit from some modernisation but is a perfect, rare opportunity for a buyer to put their own stamp on a fine country house.

Outside
Accessed via a sweeping gravel driveway which leads to off road parking for numerous vehicles. The property stands centrally within an expansive plot of about 5.71 acres and features a high degree of privacy from the roadside. The gardens also convey a sense of character in keeping with the property and contain a variety of specimen tree, walled sections and topiary.

Providing secondary accommodation and thus perfect for multi-generational living is the converted two storey Coach House. This has been transformed into a two bedroom apartment with bathroom, kitchen and large sitting room. The ground floor remains as a useful workshop, garden store and double garage.
