Saundby Park Hall is a substantial five-bedroom detached home set within around seven acres of formal gardens, woodland and a 3‑acre paddock. Approached via a mile‑long, lantern‑lined drive with monumental entrance piers, the property combines generous entertaining spaces and classic Georgian‑inspired detailing with practicality for family life — large kitchen with Aga, formal drawing and dining rooms, and extensive garaging with power and water.
The accommodation is arranged over multiple levels and includes a grand oak‑panelled entrance hall, light‑filled principal rooms and a spacious master suite with dual aspect garden views and a generous en‑suite. Three further dual‑aspect bedrooms (one with a contemporary en‑suite) plus utility and laundry areas make the layout well suited to a household that values both formal entertaining and day‑to‑day living.
Significant strengths are the scale, privacy and flexible grounds: formal gardens, fountain courtyard, woodland walks and the paddock offer equestrian or leisure potential. Practical benefits include substantial garaging (up to four cars) and mains services to the garage, while the plot and architectural character present strong scope for further improvement or personalisation.
Buyers should allow for ongoing running and improvement costs. The house uses oil‑fired heating, has an EPC rating of D, and the timber‑frame walls are noted as partially insulated; broadband speeds are very slow in this rural location. Council tax is described as quite expensive and the size and age of the house will bring regular maintenance and energy upgrade considerations.
