Summary - LEGH OLD HALL WILMSLOW ROAD MOTTRAM ST ANDREW MACCLESFIELD SK10 4QH
4 bed 4 bath Detached
Extensive private gardens and versatile coach house ideal for family life.
Grade II listed detached country house, circa 16th Century
Legh Old Hall is an immaculately presented Grade II listed country house set in just under an acre of landscaped gardens with long, open views towards the Pennines. The main house (around 3,500 sq ft) combines substantial period character — exposed timbers, mullioned windows and stone fireplaces — with a light, vaulted kitchen/garden room and underfloor heating in the day spaces. The property has four double bedrooms and four bathrooms arranged over split-level first-floor accommodation, including a principal suite with dressing room and newly refurbished en suite.
A completely remodelled, two-storey coach house (circa 1,500 sq ft) provides flexible ancillary accommodation: currently used as media/games space but readily convertible to guest or independent living, with bi-fold doors that will accept a vehicle and a useful adjoining workshop. Practical points include mains gas heating (two boilers), full fibre broadband, double glazing fitted post-2002 and generous off-street parking via electric gated driveway.
Buyers should note important constraints: Grade II listing will restrict alterations and may complicate future works; drainage relies on two septic tanks; and council tax is described as very expensive. The house has been newly renovated and is presented ready to occupy, but the age of the walls (traditional sandstone/limestone) and listed status mean any further changes will require specialist advice and listed-building consents.
This home will suit buyers seeking a large, characterful family house with strong ancillary potential in a peaceful rural setting, yet within five minutes by car of Prestbury, Alderley Edge and Wilmslow. Its combination of formal walled garden, multiple outdoor seating areas and substantial coach house gives scope for multi-generational living or bespoke home-working and leisure uses.
