A 17th Century English Country Manor in Dorset
The charming 17th century manor house is surrounded by landscaped gardens, set in 10 acres of park in the Dorset countryside.
The English country estate provides a luxe lifestyle alongside its bucolic setting, featuring a helicopter pad and hangar, tennis court, and outdoor pool.
The historic property has 9 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, and 4 reception rooms, featuring much of its original period detail, with original stone and wood flooring, wood paneling, and original fireplaces.
The owner worked with a historical architect to restore to the house authentically and honour the country house’s 400 year old history.
It is reported that the current owner fell in love with Poxwell Manor, twice. He first purchased the property in 1977 and sold it in 1986. When the property returned to the market in 1998, the owner moved quickly and bought the property within 48 hours.
The Grade I listed manor has been expanded and altered over the centuries and possesses a unique sort of magic, nestled behind its wrought iron gates.
Poxwell Manor has an idyllic setting next to its namesake Dorset village, and is located not far from the UNESCO-designated Jurrasic Coast.
The property includes a 3-bedroom cottage, a greenhouse with workshops, and a vegetable garden.
