Norton Barton Manor is an exceptionally charming and private former manor farm offering a large Grade II Listed house, a two-bedroom cottage annex, a collection of successful holiday cottages with further potential, and over 10 acres of land. Located in a peaceful and secluded countryside setting with no immediate neighbors, the property benefits from expansive far-reaching views and offers tremendous scope for future development. The property provides an ideal opportunity for a home and business combination, blending a flexible, well-maintained family residence with the potential for continued holiday letting income.

The Grade II Listed farmhouse, with its spacious and well-designed layout, features traditional period details and a versatile living space. The ground floor includes two reception rooms, a study, and a well-equipped kitchen/breakfast room with an Aga, along with additional utility spaces like a shower room, boiler room, and boot room. A second staircase leads to two bedrooms and a WC, offering the possibility of separate accommodation. On the first floor, there are six bedrooms, one en suite, and a family bathroom, providing ample space for a large family or guests.

Adjoining the farmhouse is a recently refurbished two-bedroom cottage annex, ideal for multi-generational living. This comfortable accommodation includes a central hall, shower room, kitchen/dining room, sitting room, and two bedrooms on the first floor.

In addition, the property boasts a collection of beautifully presented holiday cottages. Hare Cottage offers five bedrooms and four bathrooms, The Cow Shed features two bedrooms and two bathrooms, and Cosy Cottage provides a one-bedroom, one-bathroom retreat. These cottages all provide luxurious accommodation with private garden spaces and ample parking. The traditional stone barns are arranged around a central courtyard, with the original roundhouse currently functioning as a popular games room. The Threshing Barn, part converted with planning consent for holiday use, offers further potential for conversion into another substantial holiday letting unit or could be split into two smaller units, subject to necessary permissions.

With 10 acres of gently sloping, productive pastureland and a mix of modern and traditional outbuildings, the property provides an excellent environment for both residential living and business use. The property’s location offers excellent access to surrounding towns, local amenities, and major road connections, while the nearby Roadford Lake offers a range of outdoor activities, including sailing, kayaking, and walking.

Trading as Reverie Holiday Barns, the holiday cottages are well-established, with bookings managed through a dedicated website, social media platforms, and a booking agent. With its combination of a beautiful home, land, income potential, and great lifestyle opportunities, this property represents a rare and versatile offering in an idyllic country setting. EPC: E.
