House For Sale £885,000
Dating back as far as the 1600's, East Court forms part of a collection of period buildings known as the historic Rowden Manor estate. Originally forming a number of outbuildings to the original Rowden Manor, East Court was transformed and renovated by Sir Edward Hungerford as a direct result of the English Civil War. These were then split to form a small number of properties at the end of a long private drive, surrounded by open farmland on the edge of Chippenham, as it can be found now in it's current state.
This exceptionally unique property is made up of the principal residence, and a further one bedroom granny annexe / cottage.
