Wonersh, Surrey, GU5

Steeped in history and of exceptional architectural importance, this Manor is a residence of rare provenance. Its core dates to the 15th century, with further significant additions in later centuries forming a remarkable tapestry of English domestic history.
Located in a secluded location in the quintessentially English village of Wonersh just a short drive from Guildford, the principal portion of the manor is approached via an extra ordinary historic loggia passageway across a medieval moat, a beguiling and increasingly rare survival which offers a theatrical and deeply atmospheric arrival. Few homes in England can rival such an evocative approach.
Beyond lies accommodation of immense character and warmth. The heart of the home is the awe-inspiring historic hall, resplendent with ancient flagstone flooring and a full-height vaulted ceiling that soars above, its volume and drama recalling the feasting halls of England's noble past looked on by the proud inglenook fireplace with its stories of banqueting and feasting buried deep in its gunnels. Three splendid reception rooms provide elegant yet intimate spaces for entertaining and family life, each imbued with period detail and architectural integrity.
The accommodation offers five bedrooms, three bathrooms and study, thoughtfully arranged within the historic footprint. A kitchen breakfast room serves as the convivial centre of daily life, while an extraordinary 47-foot indoor pool room with sauna presents remarkable versatility offering the tantalising prospect (subject to the necessary consents) of transformation into a magnificent, vaulted kitchen and family space of truly grand proportions.
The private grounds, extending to approximately three acres, are as captivating as the house itself. Secluded, tranquil and richly landscaped, they encompass formal gardens and sweeping lawns, together with a private tennis court and walled formal gardens. Mature trees and established planting create an atmosphere of privacy and serenity befitting such a historic treasure.
A home of story, stature and singular charm, the Manor awaits its next chapter...
