Description

Clees Hall Estate is a 496.36 acre (200.890 hectare) residential estate which has been significantly enhanced by the current owners to provide a property of the highest quality. At the heart of the estate is Clees Hall, a seven bedroom moated period property which has been extensively renovated and extended in recent years to a very high standard.

In addition to Clees Hall there are 6 let properties, a converted granary annexe, a Grade II Listed thatched barn and a variety of outbuildings including stabling, garages, and a Grade II Listed Estate Office. The let residential portfolio currently provides an annual income of £97,800 with further potential.

The land is predominantly arable with further areas of permanent pasture and meadows, a grass airstrip (650 meters) and strategically positioned attractive mixed woodland. In Clees Hall Great Wood there is a Nissen hut which has been converted into a shoot room complete with a log burner. The farmland is attractive with undulating topography and woodland which provides a family pheasant shoot of around 100 birds for six days per year.

Square Footage: 7,372 sq ft


Acreage: 496.35 Acres
