Manor House is a substantial and well-presented family home set in mature grounds, with the River Bourne providing a tranquil backdrop. The property combines period character with thoughtfully arranged living space across three floors, complemented by extensive outbuildings and a generous cellar.

The entrance lobby opens into a central hallway leading to a study fitted with built-in bookshelves, a snug, and a cloakroom. The snug features an inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove and enjoys views over both the driveway and rear garden. The kitchen and dining area include wooden flooring, hand-painted cabinetry, wooden worktops, and a central island with an inset ceramic hob and double oven. Further appliances comprise a four-oven AGA, washing machine, dishwasher, and fridge freezer. An inner hallway with understairs storage connects to the dining room, which offers built-in shelving and garden views. From here, double doors open into a large triple-aspect sitting room with French doors to the terrace, a second wood-burning stove, and a fitted cupboard.

On the first floor, the principal suite provides a spacious triple-aspect bedroom, dressing room, fitted wardrobes, and an en-suite bathroom. There are three additional double bedrooms and a large single bedroom, each with built-in cupboards, together with a family bathroom and a separate shower room. A staircase rises from the landing to a large attic room on the second floor, providing flexible additional space.

The lower ground floor comprises a series of well-maintained cellar rooms with power and water, suitable for storage or utility use.

The gardens, lying mainly to the south and west, are enclosed by a tall cob wall offering privacy and security. The grounds feature three small lakes, a wooded copse, and direct access to the River Bourne. A gravel driveway leads to a range of traditional outbuildings, including a double garage, workshop, and wood store. The property benefits from oil-fired central heating and is offered unfurnished for long-term rental.

If you are inquiring through ( ... ), you will be asked to fill out a short form, which will be sent directly to us. If you are using our website or On The Market, we will receive your contact information and get back to you as soon as possible with a brief questionnaire to complete.

Once we receive your completed form or questionnaire, your inquiry will be registered with the relevant Property Manager. Please note that only those who complete this step will be considered to have formally inquired about the property.

Due to the high level of interest we often receive, we regret that we are not always able to offer everyone a viewing. Whenever possible, we handle inquiries in the order they are received and arrange viewings in groups of up to four for the first round. If the property remains available, an additional round of viewings may be scheduled. To manage expectations, we may also temporarily pause viewings to review inquiries. If this occurs, we will do our best to update the property listing accordingly.

Please be aware that applications are not decided on a first-come, first-served basis. We aim to ensure a fair process for everyone; all applications will be carefully evaluated based on their merits by us, in conjunction with the landlord, before a final decision is made.

The availability date listed is provisional and will only be confirmed once referencing has been successfully completed.
