The propertyBroad Marston Manor dates originally from the 13th century and remained in the Bushell family for almost 400 years before being purchased by Sir Thomas Bennett in 1623 and substantially changed and upgraded.

Built of Cotswold stone beneath a slate roof, the manor provides spacious, bright and versatile living with well-balanced accommodation over 3 storeys. Grade II listed, Broad Marston Manor displays many period features typical of its age, including an impressive inglenook fireplace in the drawing room, flagstone and stripped flooring, leaded mullioned windows, exposed ceiling beams and wattle and daube timber framed walls alongside a beautiful Jacobean staircase to name a few.

Entered by way of an attractive Elm front door into the gracious flagstone entrance hall with a door through onto the rear lawn, the hall gives a glimpse into the manor’s architectural heritage. 3 spacious and elegant reception rooms are arranged to access the triple aspect kitchen/breakfast room which sits very much at the heart of the house. The dining room opens onto the rear terrace, an ideal spot for outdoor dining. Stairs rise to a versatile arrangement of 5 bedroom suites and 2 further bedrooms.

OutsideAccessed by way of a tree lined drive, giving the property a splendid feel, there is ample parking to the front of the house enclosed by the Coach House and Tythe Barn creating a courtyard effect offering superb ancillary accommodation and storage.

The 14th century part medieval Grade II* Listed Tythe Barn with original cruck frame bays and web supports has been beautifully restored including being reroofed and provides an opportunity for further development (subject to the necessary planning consents).

The Victorian Coach House is due west of the Manor House and provides 3 bedrooms with superb open and light living accommodation.

The glorious stone 17th century Dovecote to the right of the drive has also been recently restored and incorporates about 1000 nesting boxes, a rare example of its type and showing the importance of the house throughout history, to have a dovecote was a privilege granted only to the gentry.

The gardens and grounds wrap around the property on all four sides providing a feeling of privacy and seclusion. Mainly laid to lawn with a variety of mature parkland trees, the gardens include an attractive pond with stone steps into the glade, and a range of well stocked mature borders surrounding the house with a formal enclosed lawned garden to the rear.

Beyond the gardens and Tythe Barn is the meadow grass paddock totalling about 1 acre which is bordered by post and rail fencing with double wooden gates providing separate access onto Priory Lane.
