Built in 1840, the home has been reimagined to the highest standard, offering a luxurious retreat in the heart of the Cheshire countryside, yet conveniently close to schools and local amenities.
Set in the desirable village of Croft, the property benefits from excellent transport links. Direct trains from Warrington reach London in around two hours, while the M6 and M62 provide swift access to Liverpool, Manchester, and beyond. Families can also take advantage of the region’s leading independent schools, including Bolton Grammar, Altrincham Grammar, Urmston Grammar and Bridgewater School, with scheduled private school buses providing convenient transport.
Inside, Orford House retains its period charm while embracing modern luxury. Timeless period features including Minton tiled floors, a hand-carved mahogany staircase, ornate cornicing, and classic fireplaces sit harmoniously alongside modern-day luxuries such as underfloor heating, smart home technology, and bespoke interiors. The reception rooms are designed for both everyday living and entertaining, from the elegant dining room overlooking the ornamental pond to the expansive orangery. The bespoke kitchen features marble breakfast bars, a Rangemaster cooker and premium Bosch appliances.
The principal suite is a private sanctuary, with a spacious bedroom, electronically controlled Velux windows, a tailored dressing room and a spa-style ensuite. Three further ensuite bedrooms offer comfort for family and guests, while a self-contained top-floor apartment provides independent accommodation with its own lounge, kitchenette, and shower room, ideal for family, or visiting friends.
The landscaped grounds complement the home’s elegance, featuring formal gardens, lavender-lined borders, and York stone terraces, with a dramatic slate waterfall and lily-filled pond creating a tranquil focal point. Additional features include a triple garage and garden buildings.
This truly exceptional family home really is a spectacle to behold, for all of the right reasons and must be viewed in person to be fully appreciated.
