Summary:
Used
Location:
Eggleston, Co. Durham
Description:
Eggleston Hall is a magnificent Grade II listed country house, set in the picturesque village of Eggleston on the edge of the North Pennines. Dating in parts from 1827 and built by the renowned local architect Ignatius Bonomi. The front faade is symmetrical in style, with two large wings adjoining a handsome Georgian core of four elegant sandstone columns. Eggleston Hall has been in the Gray family for over 100 years, dating back to 1920 when it was purchased by the family's Great Grandfather, and this is the first time the property has come to the market in that time. Once a girls finishing school and a convalescing home for officers during WW2, this magnificent property is now a family home, parts of which are open to the public for hire for celebrations or corporate events. Further accommodation includes Garden Cottage which offers a kitchen, two reception rooms, a bathroom, three bedrooms and a shower room, which could be used as holiday accommodation or guest lodgings. Low Lodge is located at the entrance to the estate, which offers a sitting room and conservatory, a kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom. Offering in total 22,000 square feet of accommodation in the main house and attached wings, there is huge potential to divide the house into separate dwellings or further redevelop into a hotel or events venue, subject to planning. Four acres of mature gardens surround Eggleston Hall and incorporate the historic 17th-century ruins of Eggleston Chapel, which now remains as a garden feature. The ruins have been planted with rare and unusual species of plants, protected by the shelter of the ruined walls. The house itself boasts exquisite Georgian architecture, including high ceilings, large sash windows, original fireplaces, elegant ornate mouldings and cornicing and a grand staircase at the centre of the property. The 36ft reception hall offers an impressive welcome into the house with a grand fireplace and opens into the reception. Still available at ListedBuy!
