North Nibley, Gloucestershire, GL11

Nibley Hall is a magnificent Grade II* listed residence that embodies the charm and grandeur of England’s architectural past. Registered with English Heritage, the property is renowned for its striking Neoclassical Georgian façade, dating from 1763. This elegant frontage conceals an earlier Jacobean manor house, originally built in 1609 by John Smythe the Elder, Steward to Lord Berkeley.

The hall’s refined Georgian design is showcased by the exquisite stucco rococo ceiling in the drawing room—an extraordinary feature believed to have been inspired by the acclaimed Swiss-Italian stuccoist Giuseppe Cortese. This ornate detail brings a rare and artistic distinction to the interior.

Set within approximately 8 acres of beautifully landscaped gardens and grounds, Nibley Hall offers a wealth of space and opportunity. The main house currently provides eight generously proportioned bedrooms, along with a number of additional reception rooms and ancillary spaces that offer versatility and scope—ideal for a home office, library, games room, or further accommodation if desired. From the front lawn, there is a truly stunning view of the Tyndale Monument, an iconic local landmark that adds to the historic charm of the setting.

A range of traditional outbuildings, including stables, offer fantastic potential for equestrian use, as well as scope for development, leisure facilities, or other pursuits. The grounds provide ample space for paddocks or a manege, making this an ideal property for those with equestrian interests

While the property has been well maintained, parts of the house would benefit from renovation, offering the incoming owner the chance to modernise areas to their own specification. Notably, there is an exciting opportunity to design and install a brand new kitchen tailored entirely to personal taste—bringing contemporary comfort into this historic setting.

Nibley Hall presents a truly unique opportunity.
