Country house for sale in Bradshaw Hall, Chapel-En-Le-Frith, High Peak, Derbyshire SK23

Follow the picturesque country drive alongside the Chapel-en-le-Frith golf course to the impressive Grade ii-listed Bradshaw Hall. This 17th-century Jacobean country house, constructed in 1620 by Francis Bradshaw, is a prime example of Jacobean architecture. It features an L-shaped design, gabled rooflines, and mullioned windows. A later extension increased the house's footprint, elevating its grand position at the foot of Eccles Pike.

The house is impressive with its many period features, and the grand gateway, also Grade II listed and adorned with the Bradshaw family arms, adds to the charm. The substantial property includes Bradshaw Hall, several outbuildings, and a large greenhouse on nearly 30 acres of grazing land.

Inside, the home boasts original panelling, most notably in the dining and living rooms, a 17th-century oak staircase, original oak flooring, and a plasterwork ceiling at the first landing with a central Tudor rose and an inscription that reads 'A man without mercy of mercy shall miss but he shall have mercy that merciful is: Love god but not gould'. The house's most striking feature is the mullioned windows, indicative of the period's architecture.

The oak staircase extends to the loft and roof access. Another entrance hall connects to the extension, which features a living room, kitchen, two bedrooms, and a bathroom upstairs.

Outside and Gardens
