Description:

A truly extraordinary 18th Century Georgian house set in grounds of 1.4 acres and briefly comprising: Seven bedrooms, two bathrooms, studio room, extensive cellars and store rooms, five reception rooms and two kitchens. Extensive outbuildings. Excellent position central to the comprehensive North West motorway and travel network. Priced competitively to reflect economic conditions and sure to attract considerable market attention.

Clifton Hall is a visually impressive, unique and remarkable early 18th Century Georgian farmhouse. The property originally formed part of the Rock Savage and Cholmondeley Estates and until the late 1960's was a working farm. The property has been extended and adapted throughout the years and today provides truly amazing accommodation that can be utilised in a number of different ways and taken in combination with the extensive outbuildings, 1.4 acres of grounds and superbly convenient Cheshire position, it is the author's opinion that there is no better value house presently for sale in this part of Cheshire. Despite the age and character of the property the house is not listed and is free of any restrictive covenants.
The accommodation is outstanding due not only to the number of rooms but also the size of the accommodation. The floor plans enclosed with this brochure go some way to conveying the scope and potential of the accommodation but it is worth bringing to the attention of the reader some of the more salient points.
At ground floor level, off a spacious entrance hall is a staircase leading down to large cellars, which are split into four different rooms. The living space is however the most striking room of the ground floor. The rooms briefly comprise of sitting room, living room, study and a wonderful drawing room with 10'5 high ceiling and a separate bar area off.

In terms of the breakfast kitchen and eating arrangements, the breakfast kitchen itself is just under 20ft square whilst located adjacent to that room is a family room which has a large multifuel stove. There is amazingly a further kitchen/utility room which is again superbly proportioned and has off it a cloakroom and two store rooms. A staircase rising from the second kitchen/utility to a first floor lounge and a games room. Off the staircase in the main hall is a half landing that has a dressing room and bathroom whilst the first floor accommodation has five bedrooms with the master having an ensuite.
The second floor has bedroom six, seven and a studio, as well as a useful store with velux window and light point.
Viewers will be astounded at the size of the accommodation on offer and a viewing is absolutely essential in order to fully appreciate the quality and scope of the property.
Externally there are ample outbuildings including a sandstone stable, brick fuel bunker, greenhouse and detached double garage. There are also ample gardens and grounds that extend to approximately 1.4 acres.
