Description
Debourne Manor, a stunning 18th-century stone manor house, is nestled in mature, private gardens and offers over 3,400 square feet of characterful accommodation with scope for modernization. The property, steeped in history and charm, boasts large reception rooms, beautiful gardens with old and new walls, and a tranquil position near Gurnard and the seafront. With planning permission in place to extend to over 4,100 square feet, this is a rare opportunity to create a truly exceptional family home. The property has been lovingly restored to reveal its grandeur, with original features such as striking stone fireplace surrounds and parquet flooring. The interior boasts a grand drawing room, formal dining and sitting rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room, five generous bedrooms, and two bathrooms. The property also features a delightful attic bedroom with far-reaching views over the rooftops to the western Solent. The beautifully maintained gardens, believed to date back to the late Georgian or early Victorian period, include over 50 David Austin roses, specimen trees, and a large garage with two adjacent stores. Debourne Manor has a rich history, dating back to at least 1255, and has been in the care of just two owners in over four decades. It is located just a mile from Cowes town centre and within walking distance of Gurnard Bay, with its green picnic area and nautically themed play park.
