Description

This exceptional Grade II listed country house, with an additional flat and cottage, is situated on approximately 9.12 acres of private grounds, offering considerable renovation and investment potential. Originally a Welsh longhouse from the mid-16th century with Georgian enhancements added around 1720, the property has been well cared for by its current owners for over forty years, showcasing its historical charm alongside modern functionality. Accessed via a sweeping private driveway, the property greets you with a spacious forecourt that provides ample parking and stunning views of the surrounding countryside. The Hall itself features generous proportions, highlighted by high ceilings, elegant panelled walls, sash and bay windows, and distinctive fireplaces. These elements combine to create a sense of grandeur while maintaining the warmth of a family residence. The ground floor layout includes a welcoming entrance hall leading to both a formal dining room and drawing room, both benefiting from bay windows that overlook the lush grounds. The morning room is particularly inviting, filled with light thanks to its dual aspect. Central to the home is a traditional country kitchen equipped with essential amenities such as a Belfast sink and Aga, along with an adjoining pantry and utility room for added convenience. The first floor offers a principal bedroom complete with an en suite bathroom alongside two additional double bedrooms and another family bathroom. A spacious study on this level provides flexibility for use as an extra bedroom if desired. The second floor houses four more double bedrooms and another family bathroom; from here, you can enjoy picturesque views towards The Wirral and Liverpool. Within the grounds lies a two-bedroom cottage currently utilized for short-term rentals, accessible via its own separate entrance and parking area. Adjoining this is a one-bedroom flat also being let out, making these spaces ideal for generating rental income or housing guests. Adding to the property's investment appeal is an expansive garage/barn spanning over 2,586 sq. ft., which presents opportunities for conversion or development (subject to planning approval), especially given prior consents. Next to it is a cobbled courtyard suitable for additional parking or access. The extensive gardens enhance this property's charm with established trees lining the drive leading up to the house. Various lawns along with herbaceous borders contribute to the tranquil atmosphere while also providing an opportunity for gardening enthusiasts to cultivate their green spaces further. Located conveniently close to Holywell and Mold which offer essential amenities, Chester provides comprehensive shopping and leisure options nearby. Local recreational opportunities abound with scenic walking routes in proximity and Holywell Golf Club just four miles away. For equestrians,
