Description

Canonteign Manor, a 400-year-old Domesday Manor, has a rich history dating back to the 12th century. The property has been owned by various families, including the Davy family in the 17th century, and was even garrisoned for the King during the Civil War. After falling into disrepair, the manor was restored in the 1970s and has since been extensively renovated to combine its ancient charm with modern conveniences. The interior features generously proportioned and elegant rooms, with many original features such as granite fireplaces, stone floors, and wood panelling. The property includes a large dining hall, kitchen, breakfast room, study, snooker room, and formal sitting room, as well as seven bedrooms and a staff apartment. The grounds, which stretch to around 10 acres, include a heated outdoor swimming pool, large level lawn, and a bluebell wood, providing a private and sheltered spot to enjoy the sunshine. Located in the South West, the property offers a convenient and spectacular location.
