Fine & Country take great pleasure in offering to the market The Manor House, a very rare opportunity to purchase an extensive ground floor apartment in a wonderful, converted period residence consisting of only two apartments boasting a magnificent, private rear garden with sensational views over open countryside and the village of Thorner.
Situated in a quiet backwater location at end of short private road within this highly regarded village, the property is perfect for those wanting to downsize but still require spacious bedrooms and reception rooms with generous storage space, a private garden and double garage.
Thought to have been built 1833 and converted in 1957 this remarkable apartment exudes rich historical splendour, dressed with a wealth of significant character features throughout and an internal inspection is most strongly recommended to fully appreciate the size and quality of accommodation on offer.
