Description
SITUATION
Pewit Hall enjoys a rural situation equidistant from the charming villages of Audlem and Woore. Audlem has a range of local shops, restaurants, pubs and amenities including a small supermarket and, at its centre, a handsome Grade I listed church. Woore is home to the renowned Bridgemere Garden Centre which contains a selection of shops including a butcher, delicatessen and greengrocer.
The market town of Nantwich offers a variety of social and leisure facilities with specialist boutique style shops on a bustling high street. The larger towns of Crewe and The Potteries provide extensive shopping along with a broad range of commercial and social facilities.
The area is extremely well-served educationally with a good selection of both primary and secondary state and private schools within close proximity including Yarlet and Edenhurst Preparatory Schools, Newcastle and Stafford Grammar Schools, Madeley High School and Shrewsbury School.
The local area is steeped in history and natural beauty. The surrounding area offers a wealth of leisure opportunities and local attractions, along with a network of scenic footpaths and bridleways including The Sandstone Trail, which is considered by many to provide the best walking in South Cheshire.
The property is well placed with excellent communication links nearby. Direct trains to London Euston run from Stafford in 1 hour 17 minutes, Stoke on Trent in 1 hour 26 minutes and Crewe in 1 hour 37 minutes. The regional international airports of Manchester, Birmingham and East Midlands are easily accessible.
Equestrian enthusiasts can enjoy trail hunting with the Cheshire Hounds, polo at the Cheshire Polo Club, eventing and show jumping at Kelsall Hill Equestrian Centre, Southview Competition and Training Centre and Somerford Park Equestrian Centre along with horseracing at Chester, Bangor on Dee and Aintree. In addition, the network of quiet country lanes and bridlepaths surrounding Pewit Hall offer excellent opportunities for out riding.
DESCRIPTION
Pewit Hall occupies a stunning rural position at the end of a private drive. The driveway meanders through the Estate to the electric, wrought iron gates leading to the imposing farmhouse and fabulous courtyard with brick buildings adorned by a clock tower. The position ensures absolute privacy and outstanding uninterrupted views.
The striking Grade II listed farmhouse was comprehensively renovated in 2002 and offers well-appointed accommodation over three floors. To the ground floor are five reception rooms, one of which is currently presented as a snooker room complete with table, splendid entrance hall and impressive kitchen with spacious seating area. The kitchen is entirely fitted with handmade, bespoke Clive Christian units, a five-door aga with an electric companion and a full range of Miele appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen is a boot room and utility room with housing for relevant appliances. In addition, there is a cellar with extensive wine racking in place.
A stunning oak staircase with galleried landing rises to the first floor where there are two en suite guest bedrooms along with the principal bedroom suite, offering an independent living space with a spacious office, sitting room, bedroom and bathroom.
On the second floor is a large galleried landing with sufficient space for a seating or office space, or offers the potential for the creation of a further bedroom and two further bedrooms both with en suite bathrooms. There are two smaller rooms, currently utilised as a laundry and ironing room.
Beautifully landscaped gardens are found to the front and side of the house. Predominantly laid to lawn, the gardens include a kitchen garden, orchard with fruit trees, pergola with a selection of climbing plants and pond with fountain. A large terrace, adjacent to the house, offers the ideal area for alfresco dining and entertaining.
EQUESTRIAN FACILITIES
The equestrian facilities are of bespoke design, offering world class facilities for both horse and rider. The property is the former base of world eventing champion Yasmin Ingham and, previous to that, international showjumper Billy Twomey.
The current planning permission allows for private use only however there is the potential, subject to the necessary consents, to create a top-level competition and training venue.
The current facilities comprise of:
Tennis Court, Astroturf surface with floodlights.
Stable Block: Comprising 16 internal Victorian style Monarch stables fitted with rubber matting and automatic water drinkers, external monarch windows to one elevation. Feed Room and two open-fronted wash bays. Washroom. Kitchen area with fitted cupboards leading to secure tack room with further storage. First-floor office space and waiting room.
Party Room and entertaining area.
Indoor manège building: Steel portal-framed building split in to three areas including horse walker with a steel profile Monarch 5-horse exerciser. Workshop with resin floor and two full height roller shutter doors. Indoor manège with sand-based surface, internal lighting and viewing gallery above.
Outdoor manège with all-weather sand-based surface, floodlit.
General purpose groundsman store.
Stallion barn: 4 stables and wash box all with rubber matting.
Machinery store to rear with roller shutter doors.
(Please refer to the brochure for further details ad Block Plan)
Beyond the yard the facilities remain top class, including a show jumping field and bank in the style of The Hickstead Derby and Cross Country schooling field, with a range of fences including a water complex.
ANCILLARY ACCOMODATION
There are six flats located across the property providing self-contained accommodation for staff. Three of the flats and the communal laundry area are accessed from the main courtyard, with two further flats being located within the stable block alongside the estate office. The final flat is located above the indoor manège and, with its own viewing balcony. This could also be well suited as an owners room/viewing gallery providing a comfortable position from which to watch the horses being exercised. Each flat has its own kitchen area, sitting room, shower room and one bedroom with the exception of Flats 3, 4 and 6 which both have two bedrooms.
LAND
The Estate as a whole totals 189 acres (76 ha) and, at present, the land is all laid to grass. The paddocks close to the facilities have been utilised for the grazing of horses and are subdivided into smaller paddocks, all fenced with post and rail and each with its own individual water supply.
The remaining land has been let on a mowing and grazing licence to a nearby farmer but would be capable of a more diverse cropping regime or for entry into agri-environmental or conservation schemes, should a new owner wish to explore these opportunities.
SPORTING & ENTERTAINING
Over the years a farm shoot has been developed utilising the 23.57 Acres of woodland spread across the Estate (historically incorporating additional ground over neighbours farmland to increase the scope of the operation).
The areas of cover crop have been reduced in the last twelve months but these could be reinstated to offer pheasant and partridge shooting with the two lakes to the east providing duck shooting and flighting opportunities.
A shoot room / party barn, with an attractive vaulted ceiling, centre piece double-sided log burner and a separate kitchen is located off the courtyard and this has historically hosted the shoot dinners. This room could equally be adapted to provide further accommodation, office space or storage should it be required.
