Nestled in the Cotswolds village of Poffley End, this extensively restored late-15th-century Grade II* manor offers generous, character-rich living across approximately 5,920 sq ft. Thoughtful modernisation has retained original features — exposed timbers, flagstone floors, period fireplaces and a grand staircase — while providing contemporary comforts: new wiring, replacement radiators, an updated boiler and hot water tank, refurbished bathrooms and a newly fitted kitchen. The main house provides flexible accommodation with three reception rooms, a principal suite with dressing room and ensuite, plus additional bedrooms and a top-floor room suitable as a playroom or office.
An attached 2/3-bedroom cottage, fully renovated with separate external access and internal linkage, creates genuine multi-generational or staff accommodation, rental potential, or ancillary guest space. Outside, approaching double gates lead to a gravel drive, garage and triple carport; the grounds approaching three-quarters of an acre include large lawns, mature hedgerows, a patio, vegetable plot and a detached home office — ideal for family life, entertaining or remote working.
Practical considerations are clear and factual: the property’s Grade II* listed status brings historical significance and attractive provenance but will impose listed-building constraints and may complicate future alterations. Heating is oil-fired rather than mains gas. Council Tax lies at a higher band (G) and the property is EPC exempt due to its listed status. Mobile signal is average despite fast broadband availability in the area. These factors should be weighed against the rare combination of size, setting and recent comprehensive refurbishment.
