Fuidge Manor Estate
Fuidge Manor is a wonderful country house located down a long private driveway, nestled into the side of the valley with tremendous views over its own land and the countryside beyond. The house and estate have great potential for restoration back into a classic country house and sporting estate, with the ability to create additional accommodation through utilising the various buildings, or to support a range of alternative uses, subject to planning consent.

There is excellent deer stalking on the estate plus the potential to run a small shoot over the gently undulating terrain, with areas of woodland providing options for habitat and release pens plus several natural water supplies, the river and the pond. There may be fishing opportunities in the river too, with the current owner reporting having caught several brown trout.

Fuidge Manor
Fuidge Manor is a Grade II listed, 10 bedroom country house in a splendid private setting at the end of a long private driveway. The house requires full refurbishment.

The manor house has an attractive symmetrical frontage and has been ideally positioned to take full advantage of the delightful rural views from all the main reception rooms and bedrooms. There are several historic features throughout the house dating from as early as the C17th. The central main entrance hall is flanked by a large reception room on either side each with a large bay window, and in turn these lead on to several further reception rooms and two kitchens. A service corridor along the rear leads to the original C17th kitchen with a large original stone fireplace, plus a boiler utility room, pantry, cloakroom and bathroom. An impressive main staircase rises from the entrance hall to a landing and the two main bedrooms and a bathroom, whilst the remaining eight bedrooms are accessed along the rear corridor. Two additional staircases provide alternative routes between the floors. At the far end of the house are several large storage rooms which could offer conversion potential, subject to planning.

At the front of the house is a parkland garden with views across the valley below to pasture farmland and to the lower side of the garden is a former swimming pool barn.

At the rear of the house are further gardens and grounds. To the side is a Grade II listed linhay dating from the C18th, with cow stalls on the ground floor and a hayloft above with beautiful large oak beams, and with a pitched and hipped roof and several windows. This may offer redevelopment opportunities subject to planning .

On the opposite side of the rear garden is the site of a former detached two storey cottage Grade II listed which is believed to date from the C19th.

The woodland has a separate access from the highway in the south and with no public rights of way, the land is delightfully private and peaceful.
