Description
East Wing, Bolam Hall enjoys a magnificent setting to the north of Belsay and Ponteland, just off the A696. The property, which is believed to have been constructed in 1810, is Grade II listed and was built for Robert Horsley for his daughter Charlotte Philadelphia on her marriage to John Beresford the Baron Desies. The property is built in ashlar, with Lakeland slate roof. The East Wing has a pedimented door in second bay with Venetian window above.
In the 1980s the property was divided to provide two separate wings and the East Wing represents the most prominent of the two houses. This property was purchased by the current owner in 2015 and since that time has undergone a series of renovations to an impeccable standard throughout. The property offers very grand and spacious accommodation, which enjoys views principally to the south and to the east.
The property is approached through a stone pillared access via electronic gates into an impressive private driveway. It connects through two grazing paddocks, one of which belongs to the property, and leads into the open lawned gardens.

The primary suite also has access onto its own stunning ensuite bathroom with four piece suite including standalone Lusso stone tub.
Externally, the property sits on a plot of approximately 6.5 acres and is approached via its own private driveway with ample parking to the southern and northern corner of the property on its gravel drive | The formal lawned gardens sit to the easterly aspect of the property and are extremely well maintained | The grounds include woodland to the north & east and there is a charming footpath woodland walk within the grounds | A detached outbuilding offers a separate entertaining kitchen with guest WC, as well as a further detached useful log store | Within the formal gardens sits an idyllic well and folly, as well as a lovely summerhouse to enjoy the evening sun | To the south eastern boundary sits a substantial paddock measuring approximately 3.8 acres.
