Flass Hall is a substantial Grade II listed stone built period
residence of immense charm and character.
It provides a spacious individual family residence which has
over the years been tastefully and sympathetically updated
and improved. It is a visually appealing property which has in
recent times been divided into two separate more
manageable homes.
Understood to date back to the 1500's, considerable
restoration and improvement works were carried out in the
late 1960's and early 1970's and have continued since. More
recently since our clients purchase of the property in 2005,
the property has been substantially renovated and improved
throughout with a tasteful blend of contemporary and
traditional features. It has also been extended to provide a
most pleasant garden room. It is thought that Flass Hall was
originally the home of an agent who looked after the ancient
Esh Estate and according to rumour Oliver Cromwell, Lord
Protector, once visited Flass Hall and had tea under an oak
tree outside the house.
