Look inside: Cheshire country house sitting on former Crown Estate land up for sale

A period country house in Delamere, with its own indoor swimming pool and sauna, is on the market for a guide price of £3.25 million. The Grange, located in Abbey Lane and on the edge of Delamere Forest, is described by estate agent Jackson-Stops as a 'handsome' property. The land it occupies was part of the Crown Estate until it was sold 'in the early part of the 20th century'. (Image: Jackson-Stops) The house, which bears the date 1910, is constructed of brick with black and white decorative elevations at first-floor level beneath a slate roof. (Image: Jackson-Stops) The interior of the property retains many period features, including feature fireplaces, a 'handsome' staircase, high ceilings with decorative plaster detailing, woodblock floors, and panelled doors with deep architraves. The estate agent said: "Notwithstanding the formality of the original house, The Grange offers extremely comfortable accommodation which has been well maintained and adapted to cater for modern-day family living." (Image: Jackson-Stops) This includes an open plan kitchen connecting to the original dining room, and, on the first floor, several replacement bathrooms and, in the master bedroom suite, twin dressing rooms, a bathroom, and a study/hobbies room, which was originally a separate bedroom. The property also includes an attached leisure suite with an indoor swimming pool, sauna, and changing facilities. (Image: Jackson-Stops) In the rear courtyard, there is a two-bedroomed cottage, 'extensive' garaging, domestic outbuildings, and a shed. The shed is said to be suitable for a variety of uses including 'the housing of a car collection, helicopter, and boats'. (Image: Jackson-Stops) The approach is via twin entrance drives, and the residence is said to be 'protected by woodland shelterbelts' behind a beech hedge. The surrounding amenity woodland features clearings and mown walks. The whole estate extends to 6.25 acres, or 2.52 hectares.
