A rare opportunity to acquire a historic, stunning five bedroomed residence set within private grounds. Originally built to serve Cusworth Hall, this stunning property is Grade II listed and provides exceptional, versatile accommodation. A once in a life
Once in a lifetime opportunity
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to purchase a part of history. This stunning family home is located in the beautiful conservation area of Cusworth village with breath-taking views of Cusworth Hall and the open countryside.
Beautifully appointed over two floors, Manor House includes a garage with annexed billiard room above that can be accessed internally or via a separate external entrance, making it ideal for separate accommodation. The entrance porch leads through to a welcoming large kitchen, which connects to the fully glazed conservatory through a set of double patio doors. Two reception rooms fill the ground floor along with a separate utility room, separate pantry and large hallways with sweeping staircase. Five double bedrooms adorn the first floor, presenting ample space for a growing family along with a family bathroom and features such as original windows and an original listed 'candle cupboard'.
The 16th Century Manor House at Cusworth was originally built as the Dower House to serve the former Elizabethan Cusworth Hall.
From 1891 the Manor House became the home of the tenant farmer of Home Farm and dairy. The Durdy family had managed the farm since the 1930’s. In 1956, ending nearly 400 years of belonging to the Cusworth Estate, Charles Herbert Durdy purchased the entire farm.
Improvements have been made to enhance the Elizabethan features. These included removal of exterior stucco, inserting wider stone mullion windows with leaded lights, and a period designed front door. All mullions to the rear of the property are original. Inside the house, rooms have been made lighter by providing bevel glass glazed doors, and the old cramped staircase has been replaced by an impressive wider staircase and gallery.
The present double garage was formerly the Rent and Estate Office and detached from
the main house. The ‘rent payment’ window/hatch is still in the side entrance door.
A protected Strawberry Tree, on the front terrace, was planted about 1850. There were
two planted at that time, the other being in Cusworth Hall Pleasure Grounds. The Manor
House tree is the only one to survive.
