Description

Once upon a time, nestled amidst the picturesque Welsh landscape, lies an extraordinary country estate known as The Grange. Situated in the charming town of Ruthin, Denbighshire, this enchanting haven is steeped in history, beckoning discerning overseas buyers and expat families with its timeless allure. Boasting seven bedrooms and four lavish bathrooms, this grand Grade II listed residence offers a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of city life.

Living in this part of Wales, one learns to appreciate the ebb and flow of the seasons. Ruthin, with its gentle climate, offers mild summers and cooler winters, perfect for those who relish a distinct change in weather throughout the year. The delightful town of Ruthin, just a stone's throw away, is a treasure trove for culture seekers, offering medieval architecture and welcoming pubs where stories of old come alive.

Now, about this majestic home - originally built in the 17th century with an elegant 19th-century façade - The Grange stands proudly within its vast 10-acre grounds. A classical storeyed porch, with its wide arch and historic hardwood door, welcomes you into an expansive, storybook-like home. Stepping into the inviting entrance hall, you'll find yourself immersed in history, with parquet floors and wall paneling guiding you through much of the ground floor.

If you peek to the left, the drawing room awaits with its feature fireplace and original 3-light windows, inviting natural light to play across the Jacobean-style decorative ceilings. On the opposite side, the formal dining room, fit for a family gathering, gazes out over the manicured gardens and the horizon of the Clwydian Range.

As you wander deeper into the abode, the original heart of the home offers a noticeable shift in character, with lower ceilings and charming period features. The morning room becomes a portal to perennial peace, offering panoramic views of the roses in bloom while the fireplace warms any chill away. Just around the corner, the breakfast room promises cozy meals beside its woodburning stove, overlooking a kitchen dressed in wooden charm with a regal Royal Blue aga commanding center stage.

The Grange is more than its bricks and mortar. It's enveloped by mature gardens and bountiful paddocks, ideal for equestrian pursuits or simple pastoral pleasure. Outbuildings aplenty serve as workshops or stables, catering to hobbyists and horse lovers alike. Mature fruit trees dot the landscape, whispering promises of sweet harvests to come.

As evening settles in, The Grange's billiard room transforms into a vibrant social space under the glow of vintage billiard lamps. With its stage set at the far end, impromptu performances and lively gatherings feel as natural as breathing.

For those with a thirst for adventures further afield, Ruthin's proximity to notable routes ensures you won't miss the cultural gemstones of North Wales or a swift journey to Chester, where connections to London lead. Yet, Ruthin is an adventure unto itself, rich with ancient trails like the Lady Bagot’s Drive following the tranquil River Clywedog. Leisurely rounds of golf await on nearby courses, while the local schools, both state and private, uphold a tradition of academic excellence for growing families.

In a world where fast-paced living often overshadows life's quieter joys, The Grange stands as a gentle reminder of what it means to truly live in harmony with nature and history. The estate offers everything an overseas buyer or expat could wish for: seclusion, splendor, and the promise of a fulfilling life in the picturesque embrace of Denbighshire.
