A rare opportunity within the courtyard of a sixteenth‑century Grade II* manor, The Manor Mews is a substantial, characterful family home set in very large grounds. Interiors retain authentic features — exposed beams, stone mullioned windows, flagstone floors and an impressive inglenook — while a bespoke kitchen with a seven‑burner range provides a contemporary, sociable heart. The property offers four double bedrooms, three reception rooms and a bright garden room that opens onto terraces and formal lawns.
Outside, the plot is a defining asset: an enchanting part‑walled garden with espaliered apples, a 16th‑century blue lias summer house, vegetable gardens, a wildflower meadow and a paddock of about 1.3 acres. Practical benefits include a double garage, ample parking and ultrafast broadband, with no flood risk and immediate access to village amenities and countryside walks.
Important practical points: the house is Grade II* listed, which preserves its historic fabric but will restrict alterations and can make repairs more specialist and costly. Council Tax is high (Band G) and mobile signal in the village is reported as none. The property is offered chain free and will suit buyers seeking a significant period home and extensive grounds rather than those wanting a low‑maintenance, plug‑and‑play suburban house.
Overall this is an arresting country residence for a family or couple wanting a timeless rural lifestyle, significant indoor and outdoor space, and the stewardship of a rare historic home.
