The Courtyard, 2 London Road, Halsbury House, High Street Newbury, RG14 1JX Goring, Oxfordshire RG8 9AB 01635 45501 01491 871111 [email protected] [email protected] www.jackson-stops.co.uk The Property This fine, part moated manor house is listed grade II* and is thought to date from the 14th century with additions and alterations in the 16th and 18th centuries. It was formerly known as Sandeville Manor and was held by the de Sandeville family from 1199 until 1891. A walk through this historic family house quickly tells you of its age and history and while many improvements have been made in more recent times there is certainly further potential to realise. The house benefits from four well-proportioned reception rooms all of which have open fires and enjoy lovely views over the gardens with the exception of the dining room which faces east over the moat and paddocks. Of particular note is the fine vaulted drawing room and gallery which is thought to be the earliest part of the house. Beyond the dining room is a good sized kitchen/breakfast room, again with views of the paddocks and offering great potential for further improvement. Upstairs the two principal bedrooms lie on the south east wing of the house which is thought to date from the 18th century. The remaining bedrooms, with the exception of bedroom 6, face south west over the garden.

Gardens The garden lies to the south and west of the house and is partly walled. It is laid to lawn enclosed by clipped hedges, herbaceous borders, shrubs and trees including a fine weeping willow. Running the length of the house is a terrace with doors to the dining room and study. Beyond the garden is a moat which extends round the south and west of the house and into the paddocks. Lying behind the barn is an arena/hard tennis court which requires re-furbishment. The house is approached from a private drive off Paper Mill Lane which leads to a courtyard beside the house and stables. Staff Flat There is useful flat above the stables comprising a living room, kitchen, bathroom, two bedrooms and a balcony Moreton Manor Stud Until recently the property has been run as a stud and boasts an excellent range of equestrian facilities including stables consisting of eight loose boxes and two foaling boxes, tack and feed rooms, a tractor store, and hay barn. There are ten fenced paddocks (six with water) and two nursery paddocks. From the property there is direct access onto a bridlepath.
