Once forming an entire country estate, the divided Lyminster House is now a substantial manor house of 5,594 sq ft created from the original floor plan. This beautiful Grade II listed Georgian home borrows architectural elements from Arundel Castle and has an illustrious history. It once belonged to the Duke of Norfolk and was released from the Estate as part of a marriage settlement on the 15th Duke in 1904. It was later owned by Baroness Ravensdale. To mark the change of ownership, the proud Howard crest was painted black in recognition of the transition. The current owners have reimagined the property with great care. It now balances historic charm with modern convenience. The renovation respects the original character of the home while introducing contemporary features that create a refined and relaxed lifestyle. Arranged over three levels, including an original brick lined cellar, the house offers six bedrooms on the first floor, a library, a drawing room, an extensive open plan kitchen, dining and living space, an orangery, generous cellar storage suited to wine and other items and a separate garage. The ground floor spans 2,433 sq ft and brings together the building’s heritage and modern comfort. High ceilings, grand arched windows and a heritage style Aga Cooker enhance the period feel while the luxury inbuilt appliances in the kitchen provide every modern convenience. Entry is through a vestibule where boots and coats can be kept out of sight. This leads into a welcoming library with dark wooden floors and soft neutral walls that continue throughout the house.
