Standing prominently and central to the village 'The Manor House' is a fine Georgian home with origins stretching back to the mid17th century.
Beautifully appointed throughout and worthy of its Grade II Listed status this exceptional, five-bedroom family home offers three floors of accommodation extending to around 4000 sq ft. Mature grounds which are considered a particular feature extend to 0.28 acres in total have been carefully laid out, taking full advantage of the summer sunshine throughout the day. A gated, gravel driveway provides plentiful hardstanding and access to a detached double garage. The kitchen, beautifully hand crafted in a Farmhouse style enjoys a dual aspect and is central to the ground floor accommodation. Three reception rooms are further complimented by a garden room with bar which also opens onto the gardens through two sets of French doors. Boasting a rich blend of architectural styles combined with modern luxuries this impressive home has been much loved by the current owners for more than 15 years. Two staircases lead to five bedrooms and three bathroom/shower rooms with an additional room currently being used as a home office.
Architectural Style
From the garden a studded door which dates from 1753 is a stand-out feature and there are innumerate features throughout the property. The front of the property dates from the mid-18th century under Swithland slate roof, whilst the rear wing is in part 17th century with an extension added in the 19th century.
Ground floor
The main hallway has access to the cellar whereby the lounge has a dual aspect and a working wood burning stove. The sitting room has views to the front and side garden with the second working stove and beamed ceiling. The dining room also is beamed with twin aspect side elevation windows having an open fire with stone surround.
The contemporary kitchen has granite work surfaces, built in sink unit, Aga, fridge and freezer have been cleverly combined beneath the stairs and there is multitude of storage units at both base and eye level, commensurate with an executive home...
Ground Floor Cont'd
The larder cupboard with spice rack is a nice touch. The separate utility means there is even more storage space here with a second fridge freezer along with plumbing for various appliances. The WC is adjacent followed by the garden room which has a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and purlins, two double doors provide access to the separate gardens and there is a curved bar. The kitchen, utility, WC & this room have underfloor heating.
First Floor
On the first floor the bedroom sizes become fully apparent, with the main situated above the sitting room below, therefore with a dual aspect. The en-suite is a special room with exposed timber for the A frame, oversized oval bath and a separate shower. Also, on the first floor is bedroom two and the study which is to the rear which has stairs leading to the fifth bedroom above. There is also a main family bathroom having a three-piece suite.
Second Floor
On the second floor the bedroom room sizes repeat once more, mirroring the room sizes below. Bedroom three has built in wardrobes adjacent to the chimney breast and bedroom four also has built in furniture, a dual aspect and access to the roof space. A shower room at this level serves these bedrooms with walk in cubicle with angle poised rain head shower.
Outside
The Manor House stands in mature grounds of 0.28 acres in total. Outside, the pebbled driveway allows off road car parking for at least four vehicles whilst the detached garage has a further two spaces in front of it, the doors are electrically operated and there is also a charging point. The formal lawn garden has well stocked borders with a myriad of plants and shrubs, natural hedge and brick walling affords privacy. There is a paved path connecting at the back of the garden room round to the right-hand elevation garden, this has lawn and hedge fronting the road with raised beds for horticulture, a rear patio and once more is particularly private. The lean to oak framed greenhouse is accessed from the kitchen and there is also a potting shed at the rear.
Services
All mains’ services are available and connected. The property has mains gas central heating with new Intergas Compact boiler (installed Feb 2025) and electric underfloor in Kitchen, utility area and Bar. The property has secondary double glazing.
