In my twenty years of selling property, I have been honoured with the instructions of some of Cheshire's finest and most interesting homes. Even within that context, the opportunity to purchase Gatesheath Hall is most special - this is a unique home of exceptional quality and appeal. This summary seeks to cover the key elements of this wonderful property, but do call my office and a comprehensive brochure can be e-mailed or posted out, giving even more of the detail.
The first thing to note is the location - usually a house with seventeen acres is very remote. In this case though, having approached the property over a long driveway, you have the feeling of seclusion, privacy and peace. This is combined with the convenience of being just a single mile from Tattenhall and eight miles from the City Centre of Chester.
The front façade is particularly impressive with the original part of the house believed to date from the late 17th century whilst the main house is mid-18th century. The property is constructed of Flemish and English bond brickwork beneath a slate roof. The house is three storey and the principal part has a symmetrical three bay façade with rusticated quoins and central stone porch. Gatesheath Hall has much to commend it architecturally and is fully deserving of its Grade II listing.

Location
This superb home is situated in a rural yet most accessible part of the County just beyond the sought after village of Tattenhall to the south of Chester. Tattenhall village offers a comprehensive range of services including a general store, butcher, chemist, doctor's surgery, church, pubs and restaurants whilst the historic city of Chester with high street retailers and out of town retail parks is just eight miles distant.
Schooling in the area is well provided for with a very successful primary school in the village which is within the catchment area for Bishop Heber on the outskirts of Malpas and rated outstanding by Ofsted. Additionally there is a good selection of private schools nearby including The Whitehouse at Whitchurch, The Grange at Hartford, Abbeygate College at Saighton and The King's & Queen's in Chester.
On the recreational front the village has a thriving sports club offering football, cricket, tennis, squash and a gym. Locally there are golf courses at Carden Park, Aldersey Green and Waverton, motor racing at Oulton Park, sailing at Manley Mere and rowing on the River Dee in Chester. For the equestrian enthusiasts there is hunting with the Cheshire Hunt, polo at Little Budworth, and horse racing at Chester, Bangor-on-Dee, Haydock and Aintree.
Despite its rural location the property enjoys good road links being within easy reach of the Chester Business Park, Wrexham Industrial Estate and Deeside Industrial Park. Beyond Chester access is gained to the M53 and M56 motorways permitting daily travel to Liverpool and Manchester. Both cities have international airports which are 30 and 34 miles respectively and at Hawarden there is a non-domestic airport for private jets. Travel to London is available via train from Chester and Crewe train stations which both offer a sub 2 hour service to Euston.
