The Property\r
Hedley Hall is a striking period property set in extensive private gardens within the Hedley Hall Estate. The Hall was formerly part of the Queen Mother's estate. The peaceful location offers wonderful rural living with easy access to local and regional centres. The handsome stone-built property provides impressive spacious accommodation with a host of character features. High ceilings, decorative cornicing and beautiful ceiling roses all reflect the history of the building and add to the grand country house atmosphere. The property further benefits from a substantial detached outbuilding/garage that could offer development potential, subject to securing the necessary consents.\r
\r
The main entrance opens to a welcoming bright hall with practical tiled flooring. The reception rooms are hugely generous and flexible. The sitting room and family room are both south-facing and each is filled with natural light from a dual aspect. The sitting room has a lovely marble surround fireplace housing an oil-fired stove, while the family room has a decorative fireplace. Both rooms have glazed doors that open to the magnificent conservatory. The conservatory stretches across the south elevation with splendid views over the gardens. This is the perfect spot to entertain family and friends, or to relax away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.\r
\r
The dining room offers more formal entertaining space and has direct access to the gardens to one side. Adjoining the dining room is the kitchen with a range of fitted units, integrated oven, hob, 1½ bowl sink and space for a dishwasher. The kitchen is further served by a utility/laundry room with plumbing and space for white goods.\r
\r
The remarkable games room is accessed from the main hall or the inner hall. This vast room benefits from a dual aspect, French doors to the side of the property and fabulous exposed ceiling beams. The possibilities for this huge space are endless. Off the inner hall there is an accessible wet room complete with wash hand basin and WC.\r
\r
There are four bedrooms arranged across the first floor and each room has a private en-suite shower room. Every room has a dual aspect creating light and airy accommodation. Three of the bedrooms are generous doubles, while the fourth is a single that could easily be configured as a quiet study or home office.\r
\r
Externally\r
Hedley Hall stands in well-maintained gardens and grounds extending in all to around 2 acres. A long and impressive driveway leads through open countryside before sweeping around to the property within Hedley Hall Estate, where a five-bar gate leads to the block paved driveway with ample parking for several vehicles. Across the driveway from the house is the substantial detached outbuilding/garage. In addition to providing excellent parking space and storage, this outbuilding could offer potential development, subject to securing the necessary planning consents.\r
\r
The house is positioned at the north of the gardens to deliver a wonderful southerly outlook over the sweeping manicured lawns. The lawns flow away from the house to well-defined boundaries with mature trees and hedging providing shelter and privacy. Block paving continues from the driveway and runs around the house, offering plenty of space for al fresco dining and entertaining. \r
