Grange Road, Hartlepool, TS26 8

Rare to the market, Wilton Grange is an incredible Grade II listed period property, built in 1902-03 by local master builder Henry Barnes in an area of Hartlepool renowned for properties. Wilton Grange was formerly a training school for Hartlepool Hospital nurses in the 1950s, providing live-in accommodation for the young cadets, with 2,659 sq ft of living space. The property occupies a generous plot which sits approx. 0.6 acres.

Externally it is largely based on Jacobean and Queen Anne style and has many period features, including a spectacular plastered barrel-vaulted ceiling with stained glass feature in the vast reception. A timber gallery runs around the hallway at the first floor with internal bow windows that reflect Hartlepool’s maritime history.

The property is rich in jaw droppingly beautiful period features throughout, inclusive of period tiling, individual hand carved decorative detailing, coving, period panelling, grand inglenook fireplaces, mouldings and other decorative plasterwork abound internally, which could be worked into an imaginative yet sympathetic refurbishment scheme with outstanding features. A huge amount of restoration work and modernisation has taken place over the last 7 years to carefully bring the property toward the intention of becoming a high-end boutique hotel. You must view this property to appreciate the wealth of space, period details and quality of refurbishment within.

The principal ground floor reception rooms at the front have leaded bay windows and large fireplaces, just some of the numerous spaces that lend themselves to a variety of uses.

The first floor, reached via two staircases, is similarly complex with six bedrooms, all of which can be adapted depending on the chosen use.

There is a cellar and there are currently separate kitchens on both floors.

The property stands on a substantial corner plot with plenty of parking and mature, private gardens.

With so much potential and options for future use, viewing is highly recommended in order to get a clear understanding of the opportunities that Wilton Grange offers, either as a business enterprise or a considerable residential property.

Wilton Grange is a fascinating and unique property with an intriguing past and potential for an equally interesting future, as either an indulgent family home, boutique hotel, nursery, care home or a multitude of other uses.

The property is complimented by a large wrap around driveway.
