A quite exceptional Grade II detached period residence, thought to date from around1604 and occupying a tucked away position in Walmersley, Bury just a short drive from the nearest motorway junction and within 2 miles of Bury town centre. Accessed from Walmersley Old Road down a short lane and then through remotely operated entrance gates onto the gravel driveway with turning point and central fountain, the main house, separate two bedroom cottage, outbuildings, tennis court and formal gardens amount to around 3 acres in total. Throughout the property's history there have been several extensions and alterations and the recent custodians have been very careful to retain the original character of this family home in any improvements they have made. The facade is quite spectacular with mullioned windows, stone guttering and stone slab roof, but it is the sheer size and presentation of the accommodation on offer that will most certainly impress. Altogether there is close to 7000 square feet of accommodation on offer! The main house has six bedrooms, four reception rooms, three bathrooms plus guest cloakroom, period dining kitchen, conservatory all with original period features, most with fireplaces and beamed ceilings.
The separate cottage, accessed via a side driveway, has independent heating and offers a modern kitchen and bathroom, two double bedrooms and first floor lounge.
There are workshops and garages together with a tarmac tennis court and formal gardens, grounds and patio areas in total of c3 acres.
