Stunning 17 bedroom mansion for sale for the price of a London terrace

This 17-bedroom country mansion could be all yours for just £1.5million, the same price as a large terraced house in a sought-after part of London. 

Grade II listed Well Vale Hall, located in Alford in Lincolnshire was built in the 18th century and is believed to have been one of the earliest examples of a house and parkland designed together.

It boasts seven reception rooms, 17 bedrooms and a housekeeper’s apartment - which would be perfect for when the inlaws come to stay.

The magnificent home sits in six acres of land which includes a tennis court, a sweeping driveway and a two-bedroom detached coach house with garaging.

The red-brick country house is further complemented by a three-bedroom detached bungalow.

Used by its current owners as a private school up until 2008, the house boasts 17,500 sq. ft. of living area with well-proportioned rooms.

The property sits between two lakes and beautifully landscaped gardens which have been attributed to the renowned landscape architect, Capability Brown.
