An elegant and prestigious apartment of substantial proportions enjoying breathtaking views over the national trust's biddulph grange gardens.
The magnificent Grade II Listed Victorian mansion Biddulph Grange has been imaginatively converted into only nine bespoke apartments. Apartment 6 has spectacular opulence with quite remarkable views over the National Trust's historic gardens, generally considered to be "the most important Victorian garden in Britain".
Biddulph Grange in the 1800's was home to the accomplished horticulturalist and landowner James Bateman, which was given up by him in the late 1800's and rebuilt in 1879 by Thomas Bower architect.
In the early to mid 1900's the house served as a hospital and after years of neglect the Victorian mansion was imaginatively converted by Shepherd Homes which has now been fully restored to its former glory.
Breathtaking views over Biddulph Grange Garden and beyond are just one outstanding feature of this lavish first floor two bedroom apartment. Without doubt a most stunning and distinguished home.
The residents have shared use of the majestic 54' x 34' Reception/Entertaining Hall, with Apartment 6 found on the first floor via a sweeping staircase or lift.
The apartment has a private reception hall offering doors to all rooms, with each of the main rooms enjoying a vista over the 'gardens'. At one end of this very large apartment we have a formal lounge, elegant dining room, study which could be used as a snug or bedroom. Fully fitted quality kitchen/diner, utility room with boiler room off. Master bedroom with fitted suite with door to ensuite shower room. Second double bedroom with fitted suite and finally the main bathroom.
The private grounds to this property are accessed via sturdy automated operated gates, a sweeping driveway leads to the unforgettable entrance to this residence and discreetly positioned is the residents' secure parking bay with allocated spaces.
