Hidden beyond its ancient moat and surrounded by beautifully established gardens, being one of Surrey's most important surviving historic houses. Dating from 1334 and designated Grade II*, the property represents a remarkable example of medieval vernacular architecture and has been described by leading dendrochronologists as surely the finest of its period in Surrey. Having been completely refurbished by the current owners, who have lovingly and painstakingly restored this desirable home, both inside and out. Approached through its private grounds, the manor immediately conveys a sense of permanence and history. Centuries of stewardship have shaped a home of extraordinary character, where exposed timbers, handcrafted detailing and historic craftsmanship remain wonderfully intact. Yet, despite its honoured age, the property is also a comfortable and welcoming family home, sensitively adapted for modern living. The current owners acquired the property almost twenty years ago with a vision to safeguard and restore this important part of Surrey's heritage. Their thoughtful and sympathetic programme of refurbishment has preserved the integrity of the building whilst discreetly introducing modern comforts, including bespoke oak-framed double glazing, an upgraded heating system and high-quality fixtures and fittings throughout. At the heart of the house are two magnificent inglenook fireplaces, evocative reminders of the property's medieval origins. One now incorporates a recently installed wood-burning stove, creating an inviting focal point during the winter months. Throughout the house, period features sit harmoniously alongside carefully chosen contemporary enhancements, resulting in a home of immense warmth, authenticity and charm. Complementing the principal residence is a detached self-contained cottage or annexe, offering excellent flexibility for guest accommodation, multi-generational living, home working or staff quarters. Gardens and Grounds Sitting within approximately 2.75 acres of private grounds, where the historic moat provides a captivating backdrop and a constant connection to the property's remarkable past. The gardens embody a quintessential English informality, with sweeping lawns, native planting and a rich variety of wildlife-friendly shrubs and trees creating a peaceful and natural setting. Access from the inner hall, double door gives access to a covered area with hot tub and gazebo. From this section of the garden, cross the wooden bridge to the paddock which is surrounded by fields, offering total peace and seclusion. Mature native trees frame the moat and provide year-round interest, while carefully positioned seating areas invite quiet moments overlooking the water. Birdsong, changing seasons and reflections across the moat contribute to a setting of exceptional beauty. Historic houses of this calibre and provenance seldom come to the market. This one offers the unique opportunity to become the owner of an irreplaceable piece of English architectural history while enjoying the comfort, privacy and practicality of a beautifully maintained country home. The current owners reflect: We bought the house nearly twenty years ago to rescue it and we are immensely proud of what has been achieved. It has been a privilege to care for such an extraordinary building and to preserve it for future generations.

The house has been crafted with remarkable care for energy efficiency, built toward the PassivHaus standard with exceptional insulation and airtightness. Tall ceilings and generous windows welcome in the daylight, frame the views, and invite the sun’s warmth throughout the changing seasons. Hot water and underfloor heating are supplied by an air-source heat pump, while a whole-house mechanical ventilation and heat-recovery system keeps the interior fresh and comfortable. Triple-glazed windows further enhance warmth, light, and long views across the surrounding countryside. Slines Oak Road is a quiet, tree-lined lane—quintessential Surrey countryside at its finest. The house sits gently within its pastoral setting, its design intentionally pared back to let the landscape speak. A private driveway offers ample parking, leading to a timber-framed home clad in handsome red brick and zinc, anchored by a striking chimney that punctuates its clean, modern lines. Designed by the owners for family life, the layout is notably open and flexible, filled with natural light. Every detail is finished to an exceptionally high standard. The in-and-out driveway makes movement easy and frames a beautifully landscaped front garden. At the heart of the home lies the entrance hall, with the living spaces to the right and the kitchen and dining rooms to the left. A simple, elegant palette of white walls, warm wood, and black natural linoleum ties the interior together. From the hall, two steps lead down into a radiant, triple-aspect living room with a wood-burning stove—perfect for quiet evenings or lively gatherings. At the opposite end, the expansive dining room rises into a magnificent double-height ceiling, lending the space a sense of airiness and grandeur. Doors from both the dining room and kitchen open directly onto the garden, creating an easy, natural flow between indoors and out. Also on the ground floor are a bright guest bedroom or office, a utility room, and a bathroom. A striking staircase rises to the first floor, where three equal-sized bedrooms, a shared bathroom, and an open-plan study overlook the double-height dining room. This study was designed with flexibility in mind and could become a fifth bedroom if desired. The principal bedroom features built-in storage, an ensuite bath, and doors opening onto a spacious terrace—an inviting, elevated retreat with views through the treetops to the countryside beyond. The second bedroom and landing also share direct access to this terrace. A separate matching brick building houses the garage and a serviced workshop—ideal for hobbies, projects, or simply keeping things neatly tucked away.

Structural gabions, filled with stone and materials salvaged from the former house on the site, add character and history to the landscaping. Behind the house, the sloped garden is edged with trees to create a sense of privacy and seclusion. This area has been deliberately kept naturalistic, supporting a rich mix of wild flora and fauna. At the upper boundary, a small woodland—once used for grazing—offers serene views across the rolling landscape.

Calm and imposing Along Nock Verges, in the charming Leicestershire village of Stoney Stanton, The Old Rectory is tucked away from passing traffic by being located off a cul-de-sac. It is within the boundaries of a walled garden, boarded by mature trees, flower beds and lawn. Originally designed in the 19th century by renowned architect Henry Goddard, this impressive Victorian period property has quintessentially English country house characteristics and as its name suggests, has been intrinsically linked to the history of the similarly Grade II listed parish church, St Michael’s. It has been carefully maintained to retain its distinctly traditional place in the heart of the village and was once the home of a former Chancellor to the Exchequer. The Old Rectory is an imposing listed residence while being eminently a wonderful family home. This is a sumptuous house of quality and stature, which richly complements its surroundings and is within walking distance of the many local amenities that enrich the experience of living in such a central location. Here, we have a beautifully positioned detached property with six generous bedrooms - one with en-suite facilities – set amidst its private plot measuring .69 of an acre, with established and landscaped grounds. Its striking silhouette is outlined with twin-flue end chimney stacks and intersecting hip and valley rooves, while classically proportioned sash style windows headed by gables present a grand, bespoke property of size and refinement. Filled with beautiful features from its date of original construction, on the ground floor level there are four reception rooms: a study, lounge, dining room and old school room. To the rear of the house, a large breakfast kitchen is complimented with a utility room. The original open-string staircase leading from the adjoining reception hall, ascends to the first-floor landing, bedrooms and bathing facilities: a family bathroom with separate toilet and a Jack and Jill bathroom. The property has gardens carefully planted to create privacy, described by the present owners as an ‘oasis’. Within the grounds there are separate buildings; stables, stores and the old coach house. Vehicular or equine entrances There are two entrances. From Nock Verges, entry to the property is through large wrought iron gates and over cobbles that sweep towards the house along a shingled driveway leading to a large area for turning or parking. It is lined with planted beds of mature shrubs, hedges and bordering lawned sections of the grounds, where stately trees create an impression of permanence and classical style. A second entrance is from Church Lane, and double wooden gates open to the collection of outbuildings. The largest is a two-storey building divided into stables with a staircase leading to an ample loft store. A double gated coach house is a substantial structure and accumulatively they provide covered space, storage and functionality, with the possibility of repurposing to fulfil the needs of the owner. Fitted with lighting and power sockets and a water supply, they have the potential to become a garage or workshop. The gardens surrounding the house complement the building beautifully. There are open spaces for children to play, a courtyard, hard landscaped walls, patios and walkways, and even a two-storey Wendy house for the young at heart. At every turn the vista opens to reveal other seasonal treasure, with a vast array of plants, trees, bulbs and shrubs. Over the threshold The house is built in red brick and has a Welsh slate and tile roof with a symmetrical three bay entrance in Tudor Revival style. Canted bay windows on either side of the front door, are framed by an arched porch with overhead light. Further sash windows on the floor above are those from – left to right - master bedroom, landing and first of four bedrooms in parallel. In essence, there are twin wings with a central entrance hall dividing the reception rooms. Entry from the drive establishes the overriding sense of welcome and charm that well maintained bespoke, period homes generate. From the porch and into the tiled hall, the interior standard is established. Decorative features complimenting the plainly painted high ceiling walls include six panelled doors framed by broad architraves, plaster coving and deep skirting boards. The carpeted staircase has a square newel post, plain balustrades and sweeps to the upper floor landing, turning gradually without a half-landing. Natural light floods down onto it from a skylight above. It is an elegant introduction to a delightful property that has well served as a home for nearly two hundred years. The hall and corresponding reception rooms have been decorated and accessorised with high-quality fixtures, fittings and befitting design elements. This standard will be exhibited throughout the property, as each room is similarly decorated to an extremely high level of presentation. All blinds and curtains are included within the sale. The reception rooms The hall has doors to each room on the ground floor apart from the utility room, accessible from the kitchen and the former school room. Presently used as a study, the first reception room on the left has an open fireplace with a cast iron inset, canted bay window and is carpeted. Across the hall, the grand sitting room has two fireplaces and two canted bay windows, the largest being from the late nineteenth century with shutters and French windows. With dual perspectives, this spacious room has wall lights and is also carpeted. The downstairs floor tiled cloakroom is beautifully fitted with Victorian style sanitaryware in white porcelain consisting of a high-level cistern and pull chain, vanity basin and integral storage. All sanitary fixtures and fittings within The Old Rectory are presented and maintained to a high standard. This is the first of four bathing facilities that have been supplied and equipped with stylish and often contemporary components offering an en-suite, family shower room and a Jack and Jill bathroom. Kitchen, dining and utility Within the generous breakfast kitchen, there is a suitable area for an informal arrangement of table and chairs from which to enjoy the views of the garden through double glass doors, beneath lowered pendant light fixtures. Shaker style cabinetry in contrasting grey and white provides a generous amount of display space and storage, with trellised finishes and metro tiling separating wall and floor units. Integrated appliances include a dishwasher, refrigerator, cooker, oven, extractor fan and hob. A double stainless steel sink unit makes good use of the view through the window overlooking the courtyard. The utility room has provision for a vented tumble dryer and washing machine and is accessible through the old school room. The kitchen and utility room have been fitted with floor tiles. The dining room can be entered from the kitchen or from the hall. It has a distinctive stop-chamfered blackened beam and a six-light Gothic window which is listed as being of an earlier origin than The Old Rectory. This room has an open fireplace and an integrated cupboard and easily accommodates a table suitable for formal entertaining. Lastly, as previously mentioned, the utility room is entered from the kitchen via a lobby and the old school room. This has a rear exit, presumably allowing those who had completed their lessons, the freedom of the outside rear garden without having to enter the larger rooms at the formal end of the original rectory. Today, present owners have the luxury of using it for multiple purposes, whether for sports equipment, a children’s play area or conversion into a ground floor bedroom; it is a valuable asset to have possibilities and options without having to extend. There is also a boot room on the exterior wall of the house, only accessible from outside. Double bedrooms as standard The first floor has six bedrooms-the master with an en-suite- a family shower room and a Jack and Jill bathroom. Each bedroom is quite distinctive, but they share vital characteristics: they are all spacious, well maintained and carefully designed to cater generously for their occupants. All of them have been individually decorated, some with feature wall paper, coordinating carpets or polished floorboards and have beautiful views overlooking the grounds. There are two bedrooms with en-suite style bathing facilities as the Jack and Jill bathroom can be locked to maintain independence. It comprises of a Victorian styled sink unit, toilet, heated towel rail, bidet and bath. Wall tiling and floor coverings complete the stylish interior spaces, and this is mirrored in the second en-suite which also has a characterful roll top bath but styled in a contemporary fashion. All sanitary fixtures and fittings in all the facilities in The Old Rectory have been tastefully selected with white suites, fitted and maintained to high specifications. They are often bespoke and while similar in quality, all offer individuality that befits their surroundings. In a similar vein, tiling to walls and floors, lighting and heating fixtures are of a high standard. And finally The Old Rectory served a purpose within the village of Stoney Stanton and was never just a ‘big house’ it was a small institution. Echoes of its past remain in the very name of the ‘old school room’ and there must have been many meetings, church fetes and social gatherings within its walls and garden. Fundamentally it was and remains, a special home and since being built, new owners have continued to benefit from original characteristics, while adding sympathetic features of their time of ownership to enhance and improve the property. The opportunity has now arisen for the next chapter of its story to be written! LOCALITY Stoney Stanton LE9 Stoney Stanton is a village in the Blaby district of the central English Midlands County of Leicestershire. It is only 10 miles from Leicester’s city centre, 5 miles east of Hinckley and 4 miles west of Narborough. In this location, many major road, rail and air links are conveniently accessible. The M1 (junction 20, south, near to Lutterworth and junction 21, north), M6, M42 and M69 maximise the potential for travel by road and there are airports in Coventry and at The East Midlands Airport close to Castle Donnington. Operational train stations can be found at Narborough, Hinckley and Leicester, with trains running regularly to London St Pancras International. The bustling village has existed for centuries, being mentioned in the Domesday survey of 1086 as ‘Stantone’ and consisted then of agricultural, meadow and woodland. It later became industrially famous for the valuable stone and gravel quarried from Carey, Clint and Lanes Hills. The pits that remain have been filled with water and provide a haven for wildlife and a water sports and scuba diving centre known as Stoney Cove. This large village continues to appeal to the community through a wide selection of sporting clubs such as golf, cricket, tennis, bowls and football, and an array of education and leisure amenities, including the David Lloyd Leisure Club with swimming pools, Hinckley Leisure Centre and Enderby Leisure Centre with golf club. Locally there is the convenience of such things as a cooperative supermarket but wider afield Fosse Park, offers a retail hub with major high street retailers. There are several local pubs – The Blue Bell Inn, Bull’s Head and Star Inn – shops and restaurants – a fish and chip shop, a separate Indian and Chinese restaurant and takeaway, plus a pizzeria - cafes and parks, with an outdoor gym, children’s playground and skateboarding park. Stoney Stanton benefits by having service and convenience stores: a hardware shop, hairdressers, barbers and beautician. There is a local post office, and a public library operates from within the small St Michael’s shopping area. A medical centre, pharmacy, opticians and dentists are similarly convenient and within walking distance of the village centre. For those seeking the peace and beauty of the countryside, Stoney Stanton has an abundance of nature reserves and bridal paths. The equestrian Witham Villa Stables is three miles away. For more information the site found at www.townandvillageguide.com/Leicestershire/StoneyStanton.html is one of many resources. The parish church of St Michael’s is first recorded in a document dating to 1149 and is one of three places of worship within Stoney Stanton, the others being the Methodist Church on Hinckley Road and the Living Rock evangelical church. The village centre has the oldest buildings in the locality including an eighteenth century Dower House, a bake house and a Victorian Rectory, once the home of Baron Lawson of Blaby, Nigel Lawson, a former Chancellor of the Exchequer during Margaret Thatcher’s years. Stoney Stanton has a local primary school, Manorfield C of E Primary School and the secondary school catchment include Hastings School in Burbage, the John Cleveland College and Lutterworth High School.
