School Lane, Haigh

Discreetly tucked away along its own sizeable private driveway, Gardners House is probably one of the most beautiful buildings located in the grounds of Haigh Hall Estate. This handsome yet charming home was completely refurbished and brought back to its former glory approximately twenty years ago resulting in one of the prettiest homes within the grounds of the landmark estate. The residence was understood to have been built as the "gardeners house" for the estate and is filled with the charm and character of a home built within this historic period yet with modern conveniences. The sympathetic restoration not only maintained the character of the building but highlighted the beautiful features evident throughout the home.

Spanning over 2600 sq. ft the interior of the building is entered via an entrance vestibule with a stunning tiled floor which leads into a grand entrance hallway which features an impressive spindled staircase positioned in the centre of the home, and oak wooden flooring which flows throughout the home. The main reception areas all lead from the hallway and include the lounge featuring four windows which overlook the garden areas and a centrally exposed half brick fireplace housing a wood burning stove. There is a further dedicated office at ground floor level and a second living room all filled with natural light. The heart of the home is the spacious open plan kitchen with an additional vaulted dining and sitting area. The kitchen has been completed with a range of wooden cabinets, tailored to this delightful space and housing the warming Aga cooker, open shelves, pantry store and central island. The kitchen leads to the delightful vaulted reception area (also housing an exposed brick wood burner) and French doors leading out to the grounds. There is a separate laundry room and a ground floor cloakroom also included on the ground floor.

The first floor is equally well appointed and provides four light filled spacious bedrooms with the main bedroom offering an adjoining ensuite and a further family bathroom, complete with cast iron slipper bath.

The outside space of this simply beautiful home is as equally impressive and includes a long sweeping private driveway leading to the property. The driveway is gated and in turn leads to an expansive gravelled parking area suitable for several vehicles whilst the mature grounds encompass the home and are surrounded by woodland making the gardens private and secure.


Located within the grounds of the historic Haigh woodland park, which extends to approximately 220 acres, the location is also ideal for easy access to both the motorway network and facilities. The villages of Aspull and the livelier village of Standish are a short drive away with their handy shops, excellent schools and leisure facilities.
