Country Estate with Outstanding Courtyard and Landmark …

Property Description

A light-filled, 19C manoir with a long cedar driveway and a fully enclosed courtyard, dominated by an extraordinary tobacco tower, with potential for a leisure or other commercial venture.

The main rooms are light and airy with an appealing layout for modern living, with multiple windows and points of access to the grounds and gardens, the sitting room and kitchen opening onto a terrace and pergola. The guest wing, on ground floor level, is self-contained as well as linking to the main accommodation. What sets the property apart, is the scale and design of the outbuildings and the tower alone is a stunning visual feature. The avenue to the property is flanked by 40 majestic cedars and mature oaks and the main garden has a huge variety of ornamental plantings and parkland trees dating back a couple of centuries. A pool and recreational area is well set to the rear, through the archway beneath the tower. The square courtyard, half an English acre and reminiscent of a university college, is down to grass with a feature cedar offset from the centre. The main house and guest wing are comfortably habitable but would benefit from further refurbishment overtime.
