Grade I listed and of exceptional architectural importance, Lower Great Tangley Manor is a residence of rare provenance. Its core dates to the 15th century, with further significant additions in later centuries forming a remarkable tapestry of English domestic history.

Over the centuries, careful stewardship has preserved and celebrated the Manor’s evolution, where the romance of the medieval period harmoniously entwines with the artistry and craftsmanship of the Arts & Crafts movement.

Approached across its own moat a beguiling and increasingly rare survival the Manor is entered via an extraordinary 50ft historic loggia passageway: a long, covered medieval walkway that offers a theatrical and deeply atmospheric arrival. Few homes in England can rival such an evocative approach.

Beyond lies accommodation of immense character and warmth. The heart of the home is the awe-inspiring medieval hall, resplendent with ancient flagstone flooring and a full-height vaulted ceiling that soars above, its volume and drama recalling the feasting halls of England’s noble past looked on by the proud inglenook fireplace with its stories of banqueting and feasting buried deep in its gunnels. Three splendid reception rooms provide elegant yet intimate spaces for entertaining and family life, each imbued with period detail and architectural integrity.

The Manor offers five bedrooms and three bathrooms, thoughtfully arranged within the historic footprint. A generous kitchen breakfast room serves as the convivial centre of daily life, while an extraordinary 45-foot indoor pool room presents remarkable versatility offering the tantalising prospect (subject to the necessary consents) of transformation into a magnificent, vaulted kitchen and family space of truly grand proportions.

Complementing the principal accommodation are garages, outbuildings, a sauna and a dedicated office amenities that ensure modern comfort sits effortlessly within this ancient setting.

The grounds, extending to approximately three acres, are as captivating as the house itself. Secluded, tranquil and richly landscaped, they encompass formal gardens and sweeping lawns, together with a private tennis court and walled formal gardens. Mature trees and established planting create an atmosphere of privacy and serenity befitting such a historic treasure.

Set within a peaceful village location, yet within easy reach of Guildford’s excellent amenities and communications, Lower Great Tangley Manor represents a rare opportunity: the chance to become custodian of a truly important English country house one that has stood with quiet dignity for over five centuries.
