The Mount was originally part of the Brogyntyn Estate and belonged to the Late Lord Harlech. The original Edwardian country house was demolished about 20 years ago and the new house built in its place thereafter. The surrounding countryside offers plenty of walking, riding and cycling opportunities with Offas Dyke being within a few miles and The Old Racecourse heritage site approximately 1.5 miles away incorporating walks with fabulous views and woodland. The Mount is amongst the most important new-build mansion houses within the United Kingdom, built within the last twenty years. Our clients, with guidance from Andrew Arrol and James Wade of Arrol and Partners, have created an exquisite country house built to the very highest of standards incorporating state of the art technology and materials. The main walls have been constructed using hand carved Derbyshire stone. The external walls are highly insulated cavity walls with all of the floors having underfloor heating. Furthermore, all of the windows are double glazed with a sophisticated but discreet Pilkington Spacia system. The Mount has been positioned to take advantage of fabulous, far-reaching views over glorious Shropshire [hidden information] thought has been given to creating an elegant and grand country house which is fit for ultra-modern yet comfortable twenty first century living. Every facet has been considered and created to the very highest standard.

The property is set within about 47 acres of parkland offering complete privacy. There is a pump house with equipment to ensure clear water in all three pools within the walled gardens. The Mount is approached through imposing double gates and a sweeping drive which gently meanders through the beautiful parkland, flanked by immaculate estate railings to either side.
