House For Sale £450,000
A Very Individual Period Former Farmhouse & Estate Managers Residence To The Sutton Hall Estate; Park End House Dates From The Early 1800's And Must Be Seen To Be Fully Appreciated. Surrounded To 3 Sides By Mature Gardens, Courtyard And Former Coaching House, This Fabulous Home Retains All The Original Charm And Period Features.
Constructed in the early 1800's and originally serving purpose as a farm and coaching house, Park End House later became the estate managers residence and coach house to the Sutton Hall estate. Today, this very individual and unusual property, serves as a fabulous home and is situated within its very own mini oasis of immensely private and mature gardens. The main house retains an abundance of its original character, with many unique aspects added in the late 1800's & early 1900's by then resident, David Brocklehurst. Exquisitely hand-carved, signed & dated solid oak doors, magnificent carved architraves, beautifully detailed stained glass window panels, sash windows, picture & plate rails and deep skirting boards, remain in situ today - all are in remarkably good condition and are proof and testament to the quality of the original workmanship. The original coach house has been converted into a double garage, store room and utility room, however, there is obvious potential, subject to planning permission, to develop this into further accommodation in the form of an independent dwelling for a dependant, or perhaps holiday lettings? The finer detail is contained in the following accommodation & exterior/grounds description:
