About this property
A breath-taking, spacious country property within a historic and superbly restored Grade II listed hall nestled in open countryside. The property has exceptional views to the front and rear and offers a once in a lifetime opportunity to live within such a historic building within a gated private community.
Lawton Hall is steeped in history dating back to around the 13th Century, owned by the Lawton family throughout the strong majority of its history. The property has also served as a hotel during the early 20th Century, a Civil Defence Reserve Camp during the Second World War, and also as Lawton Hall School 1950 and 1986. In 2002, the property was expertly renovated by Gleeson Homes into 9 luxury homes, featuring 5 apartments and 4 houses.
1, Lawton Hall was previously the billiard room to the mansion (added in the 19th Century), and is now converted into a stunning three bedroom townhouse which overlooks the lake, offering well-proportioned rooms throughout and perfectly blending a mixture of contemporary living and period grandeur and character.
An entrance hallway leads to a downstairs W/C and a beautiful open plan living area, featuring a lounge area, dining space and a gorgeous Siematic kitchen featuring a host of integrated appliances. Upstairs, the galleried landing leads to three spacious bedrooms (the master bedroom also benefiting from an open wardrobe area featuring ample storage space), alongside a stylish family bathroom featuring a four-piece suite.
A wealth of period features have been retained to add exceptional character to this home, including exposed ceiling beams, a vaulted ceiling and Georgian windows which allow plenty of natural lighting into the property.
Situated just off the A50 in Church Lawton, Lawton Hall offers excellent links to commuting routes such as the M6 (Junction 16), A500 and A34, with the wealth of amenities with Alsager, Kidsgrove and Congleton only a short distance away. A simply stunning home which must be viewed!
