Description

Manorfield Farm is a unique opportunity to acquire a prestigious new home built and hand-crafted by Sherbourne Developments in the Pewsey Vale.

Being completed by Sherbourne Developments and informed throughout by classical Georgian references, time-honoured craftsmanship informed by classical Georgian architecture, Manorfield Farm sympathetically weaves time-honoured craftsmanship into its fabric. Both traditional and modern materials enhance the grandeur of this country home. Externally, the blue-grey tones of the traditional Welsh slate roof contrasts with the soft hues of stone on the window surrounds and quoins, and a cream-coloured lime render finish to the external walls. The wooden box-frame sliding sash windows are made by local, specialist joiners and are hand-painted.

A broad, stone porch frames the entrance, creating an impressive formal transition into the classically designed interior. Internally, Palladian proportions quickly become evident – high ceilings amplify the natural light and highlight the detail of the elegant cornicing in the reception
rooms. Bespoke skirting, architraves and door linings complete the Georgian-inspired interior.
Impeccable attention to detail sets this home apart. Sherbourne Developments source the finest natural stone and wood flooring, beautifully detailed fireplace surrounds, traditionally crafted joinery and luxurious bathrooms and kitchens. The quality of our buildings is to such a level that we believe that we are building the listed houses of the future.

Manorfield Farm exemplifies the uniquely English ability to embrace the present while celebrating the past. Period detailing within the interiors blends seamlessly with the conveniences of modern living. The house features underfloor heating on the ground and first floors, pre-wiring for lighting and select audio-visual systems in several zones and the provision for future commissioning of security and CCTV systems.
