A period country house in Delamere, with its own indoor swimming pool and sauna, is on the market for a guide price of £3.25 million.
The Grange, located in Abbey Lane and on the edge of Delamere Forest, is described by estate agent Jackson-Stops as a 'handsome' property.
The land it occupies was part of the Crown Estate until it was sold 'in the early part of the 20th century'.

The interior of the property retains many period features, including feature fireplaces, a 'handsome' staircase, high ceilings with decorative plaster detailing, woodblock floors, and panelled doors with deep architraves.
The estate agent said: "Notwithstanding the formality of the original house, The Grange offers extremely comfortable accommodation which has been well maintained and adapted to cater for modern-day family living."
