Description
***NO CHAIN*** A MAGNIFICENT AND ELEGANT TOP FLOOR APARTMENT WITH A TOWER HAVING BREATHTAKING 360º VIEWS, FORMING PART OF THE PRESTIGIOUS GRADE II* LISTED VICTORIAN BIDDULPH GRANGE MANSION.
The magnificent Grade II* Listed Victorian mansion Biddulph Grange has been imaginatively converted into only nine bespoke apartments. Apartment 9 being the obvious showpiece, boasting accommodation of spectacular opulence with quite remarkable views over Staffordshire and the National Trust's historic gardens, generally considered to be "the most important Victorian garden in Britain". The apartment is immaculate being redecorated, new LED lights and all floor coverings and carpets recently replaced. The property is presented in a show home condition.
Biddulph Grange in the 1800's was home to the accomplished horticulturalist and landowner James Bateman, which was given up by him in the late 1800's and rebuilt in 1879 by Thomas Bower architect. In the early to mid 1900's the house served as a hospital and after years of neglect the Victorian mansion was imaginatively converted by Shepherd Homes which has now been fully restored to its former glory.
Breathtaking views over Biddulph Grange Garden and beyond are just one outstanding feature of this lavish three bedroom apartment. The residents have shared use of the majestic 54' x 34' Reception/Entertaining Hall. A particularly beautiful feature of this property is the communal Grand Hall, staircase and galleried landing which has a rear corridor off, leading to a lift which terminates at the landing outside Apartment 9.
The private entrance door opens to a full length hall with doors to the main principal rooms. The size of the apartment is 191.3m² (2060ft²). At one end of the apartment is a large split-level living room with dining area, with feature "A" frame timbers. In addition there is a split-level kitchen diner with quality units and appliances. The further rooms comprise: a master bedroom including dressing area, and large luxurious en suite, in addition there is the main bathroom suite with separate shower and two further bedrooms, one having a dressing area. Completing the accommodation is a cloakroom w.c. and utility cupboard.
A staircase leads up to the tower, which is split into two areas, with spiral staircase and power, providing a fantastic recreation/quiet area to sit out.
Outside, is a walled residents' car park with remote gates and two allocated spaces and visitor parking. The vehicular approach is through the original gates (with remote control and audio link) along a gorgeous sweeping driveway. There are communal gardens and a delightful walled communal sitting area. The Grand Hall can be utilised by residents for private parties, upon request.
Viewing this apartment is imperative to appreciate its beautiful grandeur, location, size and quality.
