8 bedroom detached house for sale

A substantial Grade II listed Georgian manor of architectural presence and scale, offering restoration potential within private grounds close to the English–Welsh border.

Description - Chirk Manor offers extensive accommodation arranged over two principal floors together with cellar, detached garage/games room and additional outbuilding.

The ground floor is centred around an impressive reception hall with grand staircase and exceptional ceiling heights. A sequence of formal reception rooms radiate from the hall, including drawing room, dining room, music room, sitting room/study, snug and cinema room. These rooms display strong proportions and original detailing, forming an excellent foundation for sympathetic restoration.

The kitchen/breakfast room and adjoining family dining space are positioned to the rear and, whilst functional, will require modernisation. Ancillary areas include utility/laundry facilities, shower room and storage.

The first floor provides a generous principal bedroom suite, guest accommodation and six further bedrooms, together with multiple bathrooms. Bathroom provision is ample but specification and finish would benefit from updating.

Throughout the property, purchasers should anticipate a programme of works including kitchens, bathrooms, services and decorative improvement, together with potential layout refinement (subject to listed building consent).

This is a substantial heritage residence requiring investment, offering the rare ability to create a landmark private home of scale and stature.

Outside - The Manor stands within grounds approaching one acre, enjoying privacy and elevated rural views to the rear. The gardens include mature trees, established planting and open areas surrounding the house, along with a timber viewing deck positioned to maximise the outlook.

To support long-term stewardship, a French drainage system has recently been installed to assist with surface water management and protect the building’s integrity. Resulting groundworks have created areas of prepared soil, providing a blank canvas for reinstated lawns or a bespoke landscaping scheme. A gravelled forecourt offers ample parking and enhances the sense of arrival, while the grounds present excellent scope for terraces or structured garden design.

Situation - Chirk Manor occupies a discreet position on the edge of Chirk, a historic and well-served village set between the Welsh Hills and the Shropshire border. The property enjoys privacy whilst being within walking distance of local amenities including independent shops, restaurants, public houses, medical facilities and rail connections. The surrounding countryside provides exceptional walking, cycling and outdoor pursuits, with Chirk Castle, the Ceiriog Valley and River Dee close by.

Directions - From the centre of Chirk proceed along Trevor Road. The gated entrance to Chirk Manor will be found on the right-hand side, clearly identified by Halls signage.

Services - We understand that the property has the benefit of mains electricity, water and drainage. Heating is provided via oil-fired central heating, with LPG cylinders serving the kitchen range. Full-Fibre Broadband has recently been installed at the property.
