181-Acre English Country Estate in the Cotswolds
Nestled within the picturesque landscapes of the Cotswolds near the popular north Wiltshire village of Box, Hazelbury Manor stands as a testament to the enduring charm and resilience of English country estates.
Dating back to the 14th century, Hazelbury Manor has weathered the ages, undergoing notable restoration in the early 20th century by George J Kidston and architect Harold Brakspear, which was featured in Country Life in 1926.
In the 1970s owner Ian Pollard, a passionate architect and property developer, restored the manor once again, and also transformed its surroundings into a breathtaking eight-acre garden.
The 10 bedroom, 9-bath manor seamlessly blends Tudor architecture with modern comforts, offering 27,000 square feet of historic living space.
The Great Hall, a masterpiece with a double-height bay window, sets the tone for the interiors.
The reception rooms and living spaces are strategically arranged around two courtyard gardens, providing an intimate yet spacious ambiance.
The estate's gardens are a masterpiece, featuring walled south gardens, an expansive east garden with rose gardens and orchards, and a Pinetum planted in the 1990s.
Beyond the main manor are the Dower House (lined to the manor in the 1920s) and Grade II-listed Granary, complemented by a 17th-century courtyard with traditional stone barns.
On the southwest corner of the estate, the converted, one-bedroom Old Toll House is listed for £250,000.
This English country estate, with its storied past and carefully preserved heritage, is an opportunity to be part of an ongoing legacy in the heart of the Cotswolds.
