A striking 6-bedroom detached stone-built home on a prominent hilltop, with 2 additional income-generating dwellings on the grounds of Medieval Manor, surrounded by National Trust countryside, with historical connections to Edward IV.
Description
This is a rare opportunity to purchase a truly unique location, with a truly unique history with 3 truly unique refurbished buildings overlooking unspoilt National Trust countryside, yet only a few minutes from the M1 Motorway.
This is a well-known 6 double bedroom, detached stone residence, located on a hilltop (approx. 0.55 acres) overlooking the surrounding countryside, now serving as a spacious family home, set within mature grounds of a former medieval manor house. With a serving peaceful hamlet to one side and three large and well-preserved earthwork circuits (moat, rampart and fishpond) defining the northern approach of the previous defended medieval manor, fed by a nearby spring.
The site historically has been owned by many Noble families, allies of King Edward IV during the Wars of the Roses, and famously linked some of the most powerful men and women of Elizabethan England (pre 1086 Domesday records). Surrounding land later became owned by the National Trust.
MAIN HOME - 6 BEDROOM STONE BUILDING STRIKING ARCHITECTURE & PANORAMIC VIEWS
Retaining many original architectural details, including its grand gabled rooflines and tall windows, the property boasts a truly distinctive façade. Above the main entrance, the word “BOYS” is still proudly carved into the stone lintel -a charming reminder of the building’s educational heritage.
