Description
Step into a piece of history at Crawley Grange, a magnificent country mansion that has been home to royalty and nobility for centuries. The East Wing, which is being sold, is part of a sympathetically converted property that still retains many of its original features, including high ceilings, mullion windows, and a majestic fireplace. The property has a rich history, having been commissioned by Cardinal Wolsey in the 16th century and entertaining Queen Elizabeth I in 1575. It's also rumored to have a secret tunnel connecting it to the village church. The property has been lovingly restored and features opulent furnishings, including the very bed once occupied by Marie Antoinette, the last Queen of France. The property boasts 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a study, and a state-of-the-art kitchen, as well as a private garden and access to a heated swimming pool and tennis court. The grounds are meticulously tended by the community gardeners and feature rolling fields, a 300-year-old oak tree, and a variety of wildlife. Residents of Crawley Grange have exclusive access to footpaths that wind through the nearby village and open fields, allowing them to enjoy nature at its finest.
