DESCRIPTION
Fifehead Manor is a converted extended sixteenth century Grade II listed manor house - the site originating in the eleventh century Saxon times, and reputed to be the birthplace of Lady Godiva - and is steeped in history. The Manor House itself was re-built on the grounds of the original house in the Elizabethan age and reflects the architecture of that period.
Number 12, a luxury apartment with accommodation extending to nearly 1150 sq ft, is situated on the ground floor with its own front door and only one party wall, and comprises a reception hall, a spacious double aspect living/dining room and a luxury fitted kitchen with a range of cream units, granite work surfaces and integrated appliances. There is a good size principal bedroom with built-in double wardrobe cupboards and door into a large en suite shower room. There is a second double bedroom and main bathroom. Outside the apartment benefits from a private courtyard terrace and also the use of the communal landscaped gardens and grounds which extend to approximately two acres, with parking for numerous vehicles (one allocated parking space and visitors’ parking).
