Description
*** WATCH OUR VIDEO TOUR ***
A beautifully conceived 21st Century home, exquisite not only for its Georgian architecture but for its striking leisure suite and glorious surrounds.
The Whirley Hall Estate consists of a beautiful 17th-century Grade II*-listed Hall set within five acres of mature landscaped gardens, two cottages, numerous outbuildings and a further 48 acres of spectacular parkland, paddocks, woodland and lakes.
The Hall was originally built circa 1670 and has served as residence for a handful of Cheshire’s most historically significant families including The Birtles and Hibbert families, Lord Stanley of Alderley, and Sir William Mather. Reinvented and extended by the current owners, the period house includes a transformative modern addition – a glass-walled leisure wing that works with the topography of its rural surrounds.
Positioned in what is arguably one of Over Alderley’s best locations, Whirley Hall is reached by a tree-lined sweeping drive and electrically gated entrance with CCTV. The plot includes five acres of landscaped gardens, two cottages (both two-bedroom with en suite) and a further 48 acres of surrounding land.
To the right hand side of the Hall is a tennis court and further along are outbuildings including an estate office, garden store and pottery studio, as well as covered parking for four cars.
