Location:
Fuller's Moor, Cheshire
Description:
A completely unique Country House Hotel and Restaurant, standing in over 8.5 acres of grounds - offering tremendous potential from both a residential and commercial investment view point. Extensive accommodation of character including 7 Suites plus versatile Reception Rooms, a bespoke Tree House, Tennis Court, twin driveways and a former Swimming Pool building with possible planning potential. A one off opportunity, offered for sale for the first time in almost 30 years and only due to retirement.
Frogg Manor, South Cheshire's most individual Country House Hotel and Restaurant is on the market. Coming to the open market for the first time in nearly 30 years, the sale coincides with the retirement of the Frog Prince himself John Sykes, a gifted Chef and renowned Hotelier with an eccentric flair and over 50 years experience in the business.
Approached across a long sweeping driveway with views of the Tennis Court and grounds which extends to over 8.5 acres, the Manor House sits close to it's northern boundary, with a convenient secondary access available from the front courtyard onto Nantwich Road (only useable on a domestic basis). Located within South Cheshire's most picturesque wooded countryside, The Manor has beautiful country walks on it's doorstep with the Sandstone Trail at Bickerton less than 1 mile away. Commercially, the Manor is located with an extensive road network system at hand - having connections to the historic city of Chester and the fashionable village of Tarporley plus Whitchurch. Wrexham is also just 15 minutes from the Cheshire/Shropshire border.
Believed to have originally been built as a Hunting Lodge for Lord Egerton in circa 1640, this landmark building was greatly extended in 1758 with further extensive renovation works carried out in 1995. Features including rare cast iron and marble fireplaces, original beamed ceilings and panelled doors plus elegant sash windows can be appreciated from an internal inspection. Other less impressive but nevertheless essential features include solid fuel open working fireplaces, 2000 litre LPG tanks, one 4000 litre oil tank, 3 phase electrical supply, 4 telephone lines. A fully licensed Hotel and Restaurant with a wedding licence, PRS licence and PPL licence. A modern Klargester sewage treatment system (installed 2005). The property was comprehensively rewired and refurbished in 1995 including emergency lighting, fire alarm and intruder alarm systems.
Given the historic nature of the building - the existing generous square footage and the potential for alteration etc, plus taking into account it's enviable location and extensive grounds, we are inviting interest from both the public sector, commercial investors, developers and builders etc. Moreover, the redundant swimming pool building has previously had planning consent to provide staff accommodation, and further investigation into it's likely potential would be advised.
Externally, as mentioned there are extensive grounds which include a full sized Tennis Court, long driveway access (from Old Coach Road) large open areas of grassland, mature trees and established shrubbery. Again potential may exist to develop the grounds, with additional Timber Lodges/Tree Houses etc which would provide a valuable additional revenue stream. In total the area extends to 8.611 acres (3.484 ha) or thereabouts (see enclosed plan for further details).
A 'one off' opportunity in the Cheshire marketplace. 'Try before you buy' is advised by the Selling Agents to get a feel for the atmosphere of the Manor - before you 'Kermit' to purchase.
