Steeped in history and once home to the Lords of Raby, including Sir Jacques Horric and his son Gaspard Horric, this exceptional country estate perfectly combines architectural heritage with modern comfort. Carefully restored and meticulously maintained, the property centres around an elegant four-bedroom manor house complemented by beautifully presented guest accommodation, extensive traditional outbuildings and magnificent landscaped gardens.
Approached through electric gates and along a private driveway, the estate immediately impresses with its beautifully designed courtyard, framed by handsome stone buildings that reflect its historic origins and agricultural heritage.
The principal residence is full of authentic character, retaining an abundance of period features while offering comfortable family accommodation. Elegant reception rooms, generous proportions and carefully preserved architectural details create a refined yet welcoming atmosphere throughout.
Surrounding the manor house, the extensive stone outbuildings have been thoughtfully adapted to enhance modern living. They include a fully equipped gym, home office, covered parking for several vehicles and numerous storage rooms, providing exceptional practicality without compromising the estate's historic charm.
A delightful covered terrace overlooks the lawns and surrounding vineyards, creating the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. On the opposite side of the courtyard, a second covered terrace enjoys peaceful views towards protected woodland, where a premium hot tub and solar shower provide an idyllic private relaxation area beside an impressive traditional barn that still houses its original wine press.
Guest Accommodation
A discreet gateway leads to a beautifully designed guest courtyard, naturally separated from the principal residence to ensure complete privacy while remaining an integral part of the estate.
Centred around a superb heated swimming pool, the guest accommodation comprises three independent residences—two with one bedroom and one with two bedrooms—together with a charming studio apartment. Each has been thoughtfully designed with its own individual character and outlook, allowing family members and guests to enjoy complete independence.
A sheltered stone-flagged terrace and covered outdoor living area provide attractive communal spaces, while a workshop offers additional versatility. The accommodation also presents excellent potential for holiday rentals or hospitality use, subject to the necessary permissions.
Separate guest access leads to a spacious parking area, while an impressive arched gateway opens onto a traditional boules court surrounded by vineyards, completing this delightful part of the estate.
Grounds
The estate extends to approximately 1.2 hectares of beautifully landscaped grounds incorporating formal gardens, mature trees, attractive courtyards and numerous outdoor entertaining areas. Two private wells serve the property, while the surrounding vineyards create a spectacular natural setting with uninterrupted panoramic views across the Grande Champagne countryside towards a local château.
Every aspect of the grounds has been carefully designed to maximise privacy, beauty and enjoyment, creating a series of intimate outdoor spaces that perfectly complement the historic buildings.
