Whitfield Court is an exceptional 16th‑century Grade II* listed manor set within nearly 5.5 acres of walled grounds — a rare combination of historic character and recent, high‑spec renovation. The main house (approximately 5,184 sq ft) plus converted cottage and large Grade II barn together total 11,395 sq ft of flexible accommodation including six bedrooms, extensive reception rooms and substantial outbuildings. Recent works (c.£2m) were carried out with full planning and heritage consent, delivering a carefully restored period home with modern comforts.
The estate offers strong lifestyle features: secluded gardens, orchard and woodland, a tennis court, seven stables, garaging and a powered office. The detached carriage house has been converted into a two‑bed cottage, and the barn currently provides secure vehicle storage; both the barn and other outbuildings offer potential for further conversion subject to planning (STPP). A gated driveway and ample parking complete the private, country‑estate feel within reach of local amenities and commuter links.
Important practical points are stated plainly: the property’s listed status brings both protection and regulatory constraints — works affecting historic fabric are controlled and can be complex despite the existing consents. Outbuilding conversions require separate planning permissions (STPP). Council tax is very expensive and there are ongoing responsibilities associated with maintaining a large historic estate. The current layout provides three bathrooms for six bedrooms, which may prompt further internal adaptation for some households.
This is a distinctive opportunity for a family seeking a landmark home or for an owner‑occupier/developer with experience of heritage properties. The substantial grounds and multiple buildings deliver scope for multi‑generational living, home‑working or limited ancillary development (subject to consents). The recent price reduction represents significant value, but prospective purchasers should factor in the long‑term running and conservation obligations typical of high‑grade listed estates.
