Summary -
The Manor Cottage,Fifehead Neville,STURMINSTER NEWTON,DT10 2AL
DT10 2AL
6 bed 3 bath Detached
Spacious country estate with stables, cottage and 8 acres of mature grounds.
Grade II listed manor with late Tudor, Georgian and Victorian elements
An historic country manor set in about 8.13 acres of mature parkland, The Manor offers substantial family living with strong period character. The late Tudor core with Georgian and Victorian alterations provides six principal reception rooms, six main bedrooms plus attic staff rooms and three cellars — a rare, spacious legacy property for someone seeking a long-term family estate.
Practical outbuildings add flexible use: a two-bedroom cottage (currently let), four loose-box stable block, and a double coach house. These buildings support equestrian use, ancillary income or conversion potential, subject to Listed Building and planning consents. The walled gardens, orchard, arboretum and level paddock give sheltered outdoor space and privacy.
Buyers should note the house is Grade II listed. Any significant alteration or modernisation will require specialist conservation input and consents, which can add cost and time. The property’s scale also brings high running costs and very expensive council tax. Its hamlet location offers tranquillity but requires travel for many services.
For families wanting schooling options and country life, the house sits within reach of good independent and state schools and reasonable road links to larger towns and rail. The combination of heritage fabric, large grounds and substantial ancillary buildings will suit buyers looking for a character-filled estate to restore, enjoy and adapt carefully.
