Traditional Manor House with stunning views and stone barns. Staverton Manor is a substantial stone built property with tiled roof, and benefits from fabulous far reaching views. Situated within a Conservation Area, it is thought to date back to the mid 16th Century. The Grade II listed status means it has retained much of its character and charm, with open fire places, window seats and wooden shutters to enjoy. The property has been sympathetically extended over the years increasing the size of the ground floor space, offering a huge amount of flexible living as it could be divided to create a self contained two bedroom cottage as well as a larger family home. Ideal for multigenerational living. On entering the property through the oak front door one enters into the light reception hall with access to the two largest reception rooms and study.
