Summary - HORSELUNGES MANOR, STATION ROAD BN27 4EU
6 bed 4 bath Country House
Historic estate with expansive grounds, pool and extensive ancillary buildings.
Grade I Listed moated manor with fifteenth-century origins
Horselunges Manor is an exceptional fifteenth-century, Grade I Listed moated estate set in about eight acres of formal gardens and parkland. Its principal rooms — Great Parlour, oak-panelled dining hall, and vaulted master chamber — retain original timber framing, stone fireplaces and heraldic stained glass, offering rare historic character and generous entertaining spaces.
The estate includes a self-contained two-bedroom annexe, a library-bedroom with private entrance, billiard room, gymnasium, heated swimming pool with pavilion, and extensive outbuildings: garaging for eight cars with a flat above, converted stables cottage, workshops and barn. The property has strong provenance, including a period of ownership by manager Peter Grant, adding distinctive cultural interest.
Practical considerations are material. As a Grade I Listed building, any alteration will require specialist consents and ongoing conservation, and the listing may complicate modernisation. The site is in a high flood-risk area; prospective buyers should commission professional flood and insurance advice. Council tax and running costs are high given the scale and listed status, and the estate will need continuing maintenance to preserve its fabric.
This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity for a buyer seeking a major historic country estate with substantial ancillary accommodation and development potential within the constraints of heritage protection. The house suits those able to invest in sensitive restoration and long-term stewardship rather than buyers seeking a low-maintenance home.
