Tenure: Freehold

Swainston Hall was completed in 2006 based on an original Robert Adam design and is a classic example of neo-Georgian architecture. Occupying a wooded seven acre site overlooking the first green of the renowned Wellington Course at Wynyard Hall Golf Club, the formal landscaped gardens lie to the south of the Hall, and are surrounded by mature woodland. To the north of the Hall is a detached three-bay garage block with a broad approach and a tall central section which was designed to accommodate the landing and storage of a helicopter, if desired.

The property, which is brick-built under a slate roof, is arranged over two floors and extends to approximately 8,000 sq ft. Centred around a magnificent marble entrance hall with a full colonnaded galleried landing with stained glass cupola over, there are six well-proportioned reception rooms, a splendid craftsman-built breakfast kitchen, and five well-appointed bedroom suites including an extensive principal suite of rooms. The property is light with tall 12’ ceilings and is heated via a comprehensive underfloor system.

Wynyard Park is one of the North East’s most exclusive residential areas, developed on the historic 780 acre Wynyard Hall Estate, with its own village facilities and private golf club, which has played host to European tour events. Wynyard occupies an exceptional location between the A19 and A1(M) within easy reach of the urban conurbations of Durham, Newcastle and the Tees Valley, strategically linked to the main commercial centres and major transport networks, and yet within a stone’s throw of rolling countryside, two national parks and the beautiful market towns and villages of Northumberland, Durham and Tees Valley, as well as North Yorkshire and the Yorkshire Dales.
