Four Beeches Inspired by Charles Rennie Mackintosh’s Hill House, Four Beeches is a magnificent natural stone, new-build property with a corner turret, steeply pitched roofs, large overhanging eaves and parapet gables. This 16,700 sq ft mansion is set in a picturesque location overlooking a conservation area in Cheshire. The property sits in beautiful, mature landscaped grounds extending to approximately 2 ¼ acres. A mansion thought to be the most expensive home in Greater Manchester has gone on sale for an eye-watering £11.25m. The eight-bedroom house on Green Walk, Bowdon, was built by a local businessman in 2008 but it is now ‘surplus to requirements’. The property has almost 17,000 sq ft of floor space – including six reception rooms and a leisure suite with a swimming pool, spa, gym and home cinema with a bar area. It is surrounded by 2.25 acres of landscaped grounds, with garage space for four cars. Phillip Diggle, from estate agent Gascoigne Halman, said: “It’s certainly the most expensive property we’ve ever had and the most expensive residential property in the area.
