* GRADE II LISTED BUILDING *
This remarkable Grade II listed property, steeped in local history and believed to date back to the 17th century, offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of Standish's heritage. Once known as 'The Hesketh Arms', this impressive stone detached home blends historical charm with modern living.
Boasting approximately 3,858 sq ft of living space, this property presents versatile options for its next owner. It could be maintained as a spacious family home, converted into three separate dwellings subject to necessary permissions.
The ground floor showcases a vast kitchen area, formerly the original bar, extending over 34 ft. This sociable space connects to a 'Winery', 'Library', and pantry. The 'Snug', complete with a wood-burning stove and French doors to the garden, offers a cosy retreat. A grand reception room features original wall panelling, beams, and oak parquet flooring, while a study boasts a half-exposed stone wall and open fireplace.
Ascending the wide staircase, the first floor reveals five characterful bedrooms, each with unique features. 'The Tower Room' delights with its vaulted mezzanine and hand-crafted leaded windows, while 'The Four Poster' bedroom impresses with high ceilings and solid wood floorboards. A family bathroom, additional WC, and laundry area complete this level.
Outside, the property retains its historic charm with a cobbled area and mounting block to the front. Two driveways provide ample parking, with one featuring a detached garage/workshop. The rear garden has been thoughtfully rewilded, housing chickens and bees, while an espalier orchard of 20 fruit trees frames the space beautifully.
Ideally located for commuters, with easy access to motorways and airports, this property offers the perfect blend of historical significance and modern convenience. The current owners have made significant progress in restoring this landmark property, presenting a rare opportunity for the next custodian to complete this unique project and own a truly individual home filled with character and potential.
