Picturesque Cheshire farm mansion with ‘undisturbed views’ goes on the market for £4.5 million

Anyone got a spare £4.5 million knocking around?

Emily Sergeant - 12th August 2024

A picturesque farm mansion with “undisturbed views” surrounding it has just gone on the market over in Cheshire.

The only thing is, you’ll just need the small matter of £4.5 million before you can call it yours.

Of course, it goes without saying that the vast majority of people reading this article won’t have £4.5 million just sitting in their bank account right now, and that properties of this size and stature are not the kind we’ll ever get to call home, but if like us, you’ve got no shame in admitting you love looking at houses you can’t afford in places you’ll probably never live, then allow us to introduce you to this absolute stunner.

Take a look inside Hargrave Farm.

Located in Hargrave – which is one of Cheshire‘s many affluent and sought-after villages known for combining the best of rural living, while still being conveniently close to a wide range of amenities, excellent local schools, and transport links into Greater Manchester, the rest of the North West, and beyond – estate agents say this seven-bedroom home on the doorstep of Chester has so much to offer prospective buyers.

To put it simply, this historic home is nothing short of “impressive”.

Set amongst an approximately 50-acres of land, with seriously breath-taking views in every direction you look, this exceptional property is approached from a country lane via an electric gated entrance, and opens onto a tree-lined drive that leads to both the house itself, and the accompanying outbuildings and equestrian facilities.

Estate agents say the main house – which extends to around 8,000 sq ft – is an “imposing property” that offers outstanding space for entertaining, a spacious open plan family kitchen with an island and an Aga, and various flexible reception rooms and living quarters.

The property has a range of spacious bedrooms set over both the first and second floors, making it perfect for growing families of all sizes to move straight into.

Not only that, but in total, the residence boasts a whopping six bathrooms.

Away from the main house, a detached outbuilding provides separate self-contained accommodation in the form of The Oathouse, as well as the potential for a variety of other uses – including home offices, or fitness and leisure space.

The outside of the property is just as impressive as the inside too.

The main house and outbuildings are set in what estate agents have referred to as “attractive landscaped grounds” which come complete with well-stocked borders, extensive lawns, and a range of mature and semi-mature specimen trees, but it’s the equestrian element that really sets this property apart from the rest.

The equestrian facility’s “comprehensive” set-up combines both indoor and outdoor arenas, American barn stabling, and plenty of storage, and it also links directly to the property’s expansive land.
