Mayets are thrilled to present this prestigious and luxurious two-bedroom apartment with fantastic history, nestled within private, gated grounds in the highly sought-after area of Mellor, next to the renowned Stanley House. Close to excellent motorway links.
Situated in the park's 900 acres near Mellor, Woodfold Hall was at one time arguably the grandest private home in East Lancashire which, originally built in 1798, would become home to members of the famous Thwaites' family until 1946.
Of all the grand houses in Blackburn's affluent west end, Woodfold Hall probably ranks as the grandest. Built in 1798 for cotton magnate Henry Sudell, it soon after became the home (in 1827) of John Fowden Hindle, High Sheriff of the County, before eventually becoming the property of the Thwaites family, in 1849.
Set in 400 acres of land, surrounded by a 9 feet high wall, which was 4 miles long, Woodfold Hall was a magnificent place.
Woodfold was for many years home to Elma Yerburgh, daughter of Daniel Thwaites. Elma had taken control of the brewery's affairs, when Daniel died in 1888. She was on her honeymoon tour when she received the news of her fathers death and was aged just 24 when she became proprietor of the Thwaites empire.
Elma saw the brewery through the latter part of the 19th century, the dark days of WW1, the depression of the 1920's & 1930's and through WW2. She died, aged 82 in 1946.
The contents of Woodfold were auctioned off in 1949 and the roof was taken off the the hall soon after (it was a way of avoiding paying the rates and certain taxes). Derelict, it then deteriorated for the following five decades.
In recent years, the shell of the hall has been completely refurbished and the hall has been turned into high end luxury apartments like this and from the outside, looks pretty much as it did in its prime.
Accessed via a private road, this exquisite property offers a unique blend of history, elegance, and modern convenience.
Upon entering through the grand main doors, you're welcomed into a hallway that leads to the stunning atrium. Here, a wrought iron staircase and glass roof create a striking first impression. Inside the apartment, the hallway, featuring a tiled floor with inset lighting, guides you to all the main rooms.
The heart of this home is the open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area which is designed to impress. The living space is furnished to an exceptional standard with a leather sofa, stylish chaise, and a glass-topped dining suite, perfectly coordinating to create a space of comfort and elegance. Ample natural light floods in through multiple windows, offering breathtaking views.
The sleek kitchen is a chef's delight, boasting glass-fronted cabinetry, and ample drawer storage, all complemented by stunning countertops and upstands. Top of the range integrated Miele appliances include an electric induction hob with angled extractor, oven, and an Amana American fridge-freezer. The centerpiece is a stunning island with a stainless steel sink, feature lighting, and an illuminated glass cabinet, perfect for showcasing glassware or enjoying casual meals while taking in the breathtaking views.
The master bedroom is a sanctuary of luxury featuring a king-sized winged headboard, fully fitted wardrobes, and a coordinating mirrored dresser. The en-suite bathroom offers a spa-like experience with a Villeroy and Boch round basin, a low-level W.C. with a Gerberit flush plate, and an expansive shower with exquisite feature tiling.
The second bedroom, furnished with two single beds, features elegant dark wood flooring and striking wall lights. It also boasts its own en-suite, complete with mirrored walls, a relaxing bathtub, and a modern glass basin.
Additional amenities include an on-site gym for fitness enthusiasts and secure private parking. The stunning views, exceptional furnishings, and high-end finishes make this apartment a truly unique and luxurious place to call home.
