The Property
**Elegant Georgian Manor House**

A wonderful family home dating back to 1831 and built by Francis Gosling. The Manor House is documented in the local history of the village to have been the former hunting lodge of Lord Rosebery until the first World War and is one of the most prominent homes in Postwick. It has a wealth of nooks, crannies, and history to discover as well as approximately seven acres of gardens and grounds, and is surrounded by mature woodland.

Lovingly maintained, the house has been in the same family for over 40 years, and this is a rare opportunity to purchase a spacious and characterful property in such a highly convenient location.

This expansive family home still has many of the original Georgian features with excellent fireplaces, mouldings and high ceilings remaining, whilst offering a flexible layout perfect for modern living.

A large, Smallbone designed, fully equipped kitchen is at the heart of the Manor with its impressive granite island and adjoining family dining room, with wood burner and French doors. This leads out to the side terrace and grounds making it a wonderful social space. Next door is the formal dining room again with views onto the grounds and a feature fireplace, offering ample space for large dinner parties and family gatherings. In addition, the magnificent drawing room offers another impressive space focused around the stunning fireplace imported from a French chateau and a second wood burner, with further French doors opening to a sun-terrace and outside entertaining space.
