Built in 1820 as an Orangery to Woodfold Hall for renowned cotton magnate and industrialist Henry Sudell, this remarkable home occupies a private, gated plot extending to over two acres within one of the region’s most prestigious country estates.Few homes offer such architectural distinction. Designed by James Wyatt, the property is defined by its elegant stone elevations, soaring ceilings, and dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows, all enhanced with electric blinds. At its heart lies a beautifully executed curved design, creating a seamless sense of flow and an abundance of natural light that moves effortlessly through the space, lending both grandeur and warmth in equal measure.The ground floor, complete with underfloor heating, opens via a vestibule into a striking curved reception hall, where a travertine tiled floor and sweeping staircase immediately set the tone.

The family bathroom is equally indulgent, offering a Jacuzzi bath and separate multi-jet shower. A practical utility room is also located on this level, while a spiral staircase rises to a superb second-floor space, ideal as a teenage retreat, studio, or expansive home office with additional storage.Yet it is outside where this home truly comes into its own.The gardens are nothing short of enchanting, offering a mature landscape that wraps gracefully around the property, creating a sense of seclusion and timeless beauty. Expanses of manicured lawn are interwoven with winding stone pathways and terraces, inviting exploration at every turn. Deeply planted borders brim with established trees, shrubs, and seasonal colour, while pockets of woodland lend a natural, almost parkland quality to the setting.A magnificent monkey puzzle tree, believed to be among the oldest of its kind in the country, stands proudly within the grounds and is a rare and sculptural focal point that frames views from the principal reception spaces and anchors the landscape with quiet grandeur. Nearby, a large pond provides a tranquil focal point, perfect for moments of reflection or simply enjoying the stillness of the surroundings.A sweeping approach leads through gates onto a resin driveway, offering ample parking and access to a substantial garage with electric door.This is, without question, one of the area’s most iconic homes, a property of architectural significance, refined living, and exceptional natural beauty. Early viewing is essential, with proof of funding required.Council Tax Band: H I Leasehold I EPC: Exempt

We couldn’t believe it when we viewed Brookford Lodge and it was everything we’d been looking for and more!”    Can you recall the moment you knew it was “the one”?“The moment we drove through the gates I was optimistic. It was such a unique design and such a private house yet in the heart of a pretty village. When I stepped inside, the high ceilings made it feel spacious and airy. It felt so homely I was literally picturing our furniture in each room. It was definitely ‘the one!’.”Following those first impressions, how has your connection deepened over time, things like the architecture, the setting, the atmosphere and experiences all play a part?“Brookford Lodge has grown and adapted with us over the years, allowing us to easily embrace each new stage of life and occasion. The kitchen has been the heart of our family home, and it made perfect sense to add a playroom off the kitchen when the children were young, which became a great place for them to invite friends as they grew older. As the girls became teens, they took over the entire top floor, so they had their own space and privacy. What was once the nursery became a guest bedroom with en-suite for friends and family.”Tell us a little about the home’s history. Have you made any changes or additions that you feel have enhanced its character or functionality?“When we moved in, the garden was just a field. It’s been wonderful over the years to see how it’s grown and matured. The woodland area provides a fabulous habitat for birds and hedgehogs. We added a small patio near the pond, which captures the morning sun and is the perfect place for breakfast, and the BBQ area is great for gatherings with family and friends.”Is there a particular feature or detail that holds special meaning for you?“The hot tub has been a great addition to the garden. Sitting, chatting to friends and watching the sun set has been fun. But watching my toddlers learning to swim is a particularly special memory for me.For my husband, the office and studio having its own entrance, separate from the house has been invaluable for working from home.”Which spaces do you find yourself gravitating to most, and why?“Our open plan kitchen is where we have spent most of our time as a family. When entertaining and preparing food, it’s easy to stay involved in the conversation. With the games room just off the kitchen, the children could play and still be connected.”How does your home make day to day living feel special? Whether it’s morning light in the kitchen, cosy evenings by the fire, or garden views that never get old?“I love all of the windows at Brookford Lodge - it is such a light and bright home, with many of the rooms having dual aspect. The garden faces south, so from daybreak until dusk, all the rooms are flooded with light. Sitting on the decking, listening to the birds and looking down the garden always feels special. It’s like being on holiday every day!”What time of year does the property feel most magical, and why?“All of the seasons here have their own special meaning. We love the bluebells that carpet the woodland area to mark the start of Spring. Summer is fabulous; the patio area is a sun trap, so we’re outside a lot, on the decking area or in the hot-tub! In Autumn and Winter we light log fires in the fire-pit and cook chilli and jacket potatoes, especially for bonfire night. Perhaps the most magical of all is Christmas. The living flame fire flickers in the sitting room. We always have a large Christmas tree from the local Christmas tree farm in Threapwood, and the whole family gathers to celebrate!”For families, what do you feel makes this such a wonderful place to raise children?“Worthenbury is a very safe and friendly village. Halloween is a special time in the village, where most of the neighbours are happy to welcome the door to door ‘trick or treaters’. At Christmas, the local farmers organise a ‘Tractor-Run’ where they decorate their tractors and drive through Worthenbury and other local villages in convoy, collecting donations for charity. The village hall has pizza and wine and the whole village turns out in support. There is a play park in the village, with a small cycle track where our children learnt to ride their bikes. There are also some great schools – Malpas has the Alport primary school and Bishops Heber secondary. Abbey Gate College is a short drive and there is a local school bus to The Kings School or The Queen’s school for girls in Chester.The garden is great to explore and is enclosed on all sides. We kept chickens, geese and had ducks on the pond. There are some great walks around our local area, down winding country paths.”How would you describe the lifestyle on offer?“I’d say it’s a perfect mix of peace, tranquillity and everything a countryside location has to offer, combined with easy connectivity to schools, the city and transport links.”Are there favourite local spots, cafés, pubs, restaurants, walks, hidden gems etc that really capture the spirit of living here?“There are lots of fabulous country pubs, but we love the ‘The Boat’ at Erbistock, such a pretty 17th century inn set beside the river Dee. It is tucked away and it took us a while to discover it!  The ‘Lost Barn’ in Tilston is fabulous for coffee and breakfast. We are also members of Carden Park which is  just a 20 minute drive away and has a world class spa and golf club, great gym facilities and a lovely swimming pool.”What about local events or venues for entertaining family and friends?“Bangor-on-Dee racecourse is a 10 minute drive from Worthenbury and is a great day out. Alderford Lake is also local and has a wonderful café, lots of water-based activities all year round and several festivals. My husband enjoys mountain biking with friends in Llandegla.”Can you share a remarkable or meaningful moment that truly sums up your time in this home?“Bringing my first-born home and showing her around the house, and in a flash, marking high-school graduation with Pre-Prom parties in the Garden under a Marquee with champagne flowing. It’s been a blast!”What do you think the next owners will fall in love with most?“Brookford Lodge is such an adaptable house, the next owners will be able to make their home anything they want it to be. The flexibility to have multi-generational living, a family home or an exceptional house to entertain in, Brookford Lodge has it all.For anyone who loves peace and privacy and is looking for a countryside lifestyle yet with all the advantages of the proximity to lots of amenities, look no further!”As you prepare to move on, what will you miss most and what will you take with you in your memories?“We will both miss the garden and especially the birdsong, the local area and the friends we have made. Brookford Lodge has managed to adapt to everything we have needed with room to spare!This house has been the backdrop for the story of our lives. We hope the next owners love it as much as we have.”Additional Information Services: Mains electricity and water. Private drainage.
