THE MANOR FARM
Gracefully dating from circa 1795, Manor Farm is an enchanting and highly manageable period country estate of immense character and provenance. Thoughtfully stewarded over the past 25 years, the property has been meticulously maintained and sensitively enhanced to create a distinguished and versatile family home, set within magnificent gardens and grounds of approximately 1.3 acres. Complementing the principal residence is an exceptional stone-built barn conversion, discreetly positioned within the grounds, together forming a rare and compelling lifestyle opportunity.

During its current ownership, the house has been skilfully arranged to provide two independent dwellings — Manor Farmhouse and The Lodge — perfectly suited to multi-generational living. The configuration could, with ease, be reinstated to form one substantial and elegant country home. The estate is offered for sale as a whole, presenting a unique opportunity to acquire a property of remarkable flexibility and enduring appeal.

MANOR FARM HOUSE
Commanding the original Georgian façade, with its refined sash windows and symmetrical frontage, Manor Farmhouse exudes classic elegance. The accommodation is arranged over two beautifully proportioned floors.

An impressive entrance hall sets the tone, leading to a gracious drawing room and formal dining room — refined spaces ideal for both intimate gatherings and larger occasions. To the rear, a generously appointed living kitchen forms the heart of the home, complemented by a utility room and cloakroom.

The fine original traditional staircase rises to the first floor, where a central landing provides access to two substantial double bedrooms, each enhanced by high-quality en-suite facilities, combining comfort with understated luxury.

THE LODGE
Accessed from the rear elevation, The Lodge offers beautifully appointed accommodation over two levels, rich in charm and character. An entrance lobby opens into a welcoming reception hall, leading to a well-appointed kitchen, an elegant dining room and a delightful sitting room. From here, doors open into a captivating orangery — a light-filled retreat enjoying tranquil views across the gardens. Practical amenities on the ground floor include a guest cloakroom and utility room.

To the first floor, the principal bedroom suite benefits from a dressing room and en-suite bathroom, while the second bedroom also enjoys its own en-suite, providing privacy and comfort for family or guests alike.

THE BARN
Situated across the driveway from the main house and recognised with its own Grade II listing, the attractive stone-built barn has been converted to an exceptional standard, blending rustic heritage with contemporary refinement. A wealth of original features — exposed stonework, vaulted ceilings and magnificent beams — create a striking yet welcoming aesthetic.

The ground floor is centred around a dramatic full-height vaulted reception room, an impressive and atmospheric space perfectly suited to entertaining, with picturesque views across the gardens. A breakfast kitchen, utility room and guest cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.

Above, a galleried landing showcases the original framework of the building and leads to two double bedrooms, each appointed with stylish en-suite shower rooms.

GARDENS & GROUNDS
Approached via electric gates, a sweeping gravelled driveway creates a distinguished sense of arrival, culminating in a turning circle to the front of the house.

The formal gardens and grounds have been thoughtfully designed to provide each of the three residences with a degree of privacy, while retaining the cohesion of one beautifully unified setting. Mature perimeter trees and shrubs shelter the grounds, ensuring privacy and offering year-round colour and texture.

Arranged as a series of ‘garden rooms’, the landscaping seamlessly blends formal structure with softer, informal areas. Manicured lawns extend from an elegant stone-flagged leisure terrace, providing a superb backdrop for al fresco dining and summer entertaining.

GARANGING & OUTBUILDINGS
The property benefits from extensive garaging for up to four vehicles, together with additional outbuildings offering practical garden storage — further enhancing the functionality of this exceptional country home.
