Description

The Old Hall is an exceptional country house of considerable distinction, comprising a handsome Grade II listed residence dating from the late 17th century, set within approximately 5.5 acres of beautifully mature landscaped gardens, woods and grounds. Part timber-framed beneath a rendered exterior and crowned by a stone slate roof, the house is rich in architectural heritage, combining historic significance with an elegant and commanding presence.

Occupying a delightful setting, The Old Hall enjoys an exceptional degree of privacy, with magnificent gardens and grounds enveloping the house and affording views from every elevation. The interiors are no less impressive, with beautifully proportioned rooms of notable scale and character, displaying a wealth of original period detail including exposed timber framing, ceiling beams, chamfered sandstone features and striking Cheshire brick fireplaces. Throughout, the house has been immaculately presented and tastefully styled, creating a refined balance between its historic character and a more modern decorative finish.

The reception hall provides an immediate sense of arrival, setting the tone for the house with exposed beams and an impressive staircase that lends both grandeur and warmth. At the heart of the home lies the magnificent family dining kitchen, a superb open-plan living and entertaining space with double doors opening directly onto the gardens. Fitted with a bespoke David Lyle kitchen, complete with aga and substantial central island, it is a room of both beauty and practicality. A custom hand crafted Robert Thompson fire surround, incorporating a charming carved mouse detail and housing a Stovax wood burner, creates a particularly inviting focal point.
