Property description
SUMMARY
The Old Hall and The Moate House now form part of what was one large detached family home that dates back to the 17th century. Both being offered for sale with immediate vacant posession we strongly suggest an early internal viewing to avoid disappointment.
DESCRIPTION
The Old Hall and The Moate House now form part of what was one large detached family home that dates back to the 17th century. The property is noted for its large sandstone chimney which predates the rest of the house. It can now be described as a quite remarkable transformation from one of Helsby's oldest buildings into two large semi detached family homes that offer a modern interior but sympathetically retains the heritage and history of the original build. Ideally located in a popular residential area with St Paul's Church and Helsby Hill as the backdrop, they are also well positioned for transport links across the North Of England and North Wales with both Liverpool and Manchester Airports less than an hours drive away, whilst nearby Chester City Centre is located within ten miles. Delamere Forest is also less than a fifteen minute drive away and offers a range of recreational pursuits all year round, whilst pleasant country walks on National Trust property are quite literally on your doorstep! Once used as a convalescent home for injured officers during World War I, the building itself is steeped in history and is set within beautifully tendered gardens that boast a vast array of colour. Set in their own private grounds, both properties offer spacious living throughout and are approached by a sweeping driveway that provides ample parking for several vehicles. An early internal viewing is strongly advised but is strictly by appointment only!
