Description:
A MAJOR PORTION OF A FINE GRADE II LISTED MANOR HOUSE WITH AN INTERESTING HISTORY, STYLISHLY PRESENTED IN AN EDGE OF VILLAGE LOCATION WITH FAR REACHING VIEWS HISTORY During the Middle Ages there were two adjoining manors in the parish of Marnhull which later became one manor house known as Nash Court. The property was reputedly gifted to Catherine Parr by Henry VIII, following the Dissolution and on her death, it passed to Edward VI and then to Elizabeth I who delegated it to Thomas Arundel, Lord of Wardour Castle. Thence it passed to Earl of Leicester, then Viscount Bindon, the Earl of Nottingham and on again to the Earl of Suffolk who passed it to Sir John Williams. His wife sold the Manor at Nash to John Hussey who was responsible for its remodelling, the Hussey family were wealthy landowners with estates in several counties, including Giles Hussey the renowned artist and theorist between 1631 to 1884. In 1922 the title Lord of the Manor and all rights that went with it were ended by an Act of Parliament. THE PROPERTY Nash Court is predominantly of 19th century construction but with 16th century/earlier origins, once belonging to Glastonbury Abbey, situated on the eastern edge of Marnhull in the hamlet of Nash. Nash Court was divided into three parts in the late 1970’s: Manor House (west wing of the main house), Nash Court (east wing of the main house) and Nash Lodge, which adjoins Manor House. Built of coursed Marnhull stone elevations under a slate roof, with architectural features including stone mullion windows, decorative chimney stacks and a distinctive stone roofed bell tower. Internally the house has been painstakingly restored to a splendid standard, enhancing the wealth of period features in what are some fine rooms. A vestibule leads to a large dining hall with stripped oak floor and stairs to the upper floors. Adjacent is a splendid drawing room with a grand chimney piece, impressive hardwood coffered ceiling and large bay. Still available at ListedBuy!
