Ham Lane, Kingston Seymour, Clevedon, Avon, BS21

An extraordinary family home, restored to a very high specification.

Description

The Old Manor is a wonderful, historic residence with origins that date to 1086 and we understand that it was mentioned in the Domesday Book.

Set well back from the road at the head of an impressive gated driveway, the house sits very comfortably within its level grounds. In recent years, the accommodation has been modernised and refurbished yet many of the original period features are still evident with mullion windows, cornice work, architraves and panelled doors.

The scale of the house is impressive with overall accommodation over 4500 square feet comprising a superb reception hallway with sweeping staircase to the first floor and a very bright 28 foot sitting room. The kitchen/breakfast room, to the side of the property is a lovely area for informal family gatherings with doors leading onto the walled garden, features include a multi oven Aga, integrated appliances and a magnificent central island.

To the rear of the property is an additional living space currently used as a seating area and formal dining room, the main feature is a stone fireplace believed to date back to the 14th Century. There is a further kitchen/utility with access to the rear of the property.

Two staircases serve the first floor on which there are four double bedrooms, including the principal bedroom with en suite and two further bathrooms. The two remaining bedrooms are at second floor level.

Immediately to the rear of the property is a delightful, ornamental walled garden with a flagstone seating area. The grounds extend to a large paddock and productive orchard with a variety of fruit trees. The grounds afford ample parking with a gravelled driveway and further parking available at the rear. It is understood that the neighbouring farmer has two rights of way over the paddock to his adjoining fields although he also has alternative access from his neighbouring farm.
