DESCRIPTION The acclaimed designer Janine Stone was chosen by the
current owners of The Old Wood to create a timeless country house
that befitted its magnificent waterside location. The result is
quite evidently a resounding success.
The Old Wood is a wonderful example of how the fusion of
traditional and contemporary style and design works to create
sophisticated living space that stimulates the senses but at the
same time provides a comfortable and practical home. The Old Wood,
constructed of brick under a tiled roof, is approached by an
electrically gated entrance, leading to a Grade II Listed bridge
over the private 13 acre lake. The drive then winds it way around
the parkland, leading to specimen-tree planted mature woodland that
envelopes the house.
The house enjoys south-westerly views over the lake with a
professionally landscaped 11 acres of grounds adding another
dynamic element to this outstanding property.
Its delightful position provides a tranquil and secure location
with glorious lake views from the principal rooms. LOCATION AND
AMENITIES The village of Betley is a little gem, situated on the
southern border of Cheshire. This quintessential English village
boasts a number of fine 17th, 18th and 19th Century buildings, and
history going back prior to the Doomsday Book. The village has a
shop/post office, primary school, church, public houses and a
cricket ground. Wychwood Park Golf Club, designed to European PGA
tour standards, is approximately 2 miles distant.
Communications are excellent, with the M6 (J16) motorway only 4?
miles and Crewe Railway Station 5? miles, giving access to London
in just 1 hour 35 minutes and Manchester Piccadilly in 38
minutes.The house is also within easy driving distance from the
international airports of Manchester (29? miles), Liverpool John
Lennon (39 miles), East Midlands (51? miles) and Birmingham
(56
miles). DIRECTIONS From junction 16 of the M6, take the A500 west
towards Nantwich. At the second roundabout turn left, sign-posted
Balterley & Betley. After about 2 miles, entering the village of
Betley, take the first left hand turn, sign-posted 'Betley Hall
Gardens'. At the
end of this road are the electronically operated entrance gates
marked 'Private'. Proceed along this drive and The Old Wood
will be found. ACCOMMODATION 'Take full advantage of the view over
the water and garden' has been the designers mantra. The main house
is subtly converted to give the maximum view over the lake, with
the principal reception rooms and bedrooms having French doors
opening onto terraces and balconies, enjoying stunning views. The
newly constructed leisure wing follows suit and has been designed
specially to create the illusion that the swimming pool connects
with the lake when you are swimming. SPECIFICATION - Exterior &
