Discover a rare gem with The Ivy, the principal section of a stunning Grade I-listed manor house which has been extensively and meticulously restored, combining historical charm with modern comforts.
Built in 1728 for the lawyer and local MP John Norris, the property showcases the grandeur of the English high baroque style.
Crafted in Bath Stone, the house boasts an H-shaped plan that spans three storeys with over 5,500 sq ft of beautifully designed living spaces and 5 bedrooms.
The baroque style is evident throughout the property, with classical architectural elements meticulously incorporated into the façades and interiors.
The central doorway is a true masterpiece, featuring quartets of ionic, half-round pilasters and a triangular pedimented architrave.
The attention to detail continues above, with a broken pediment, a Romanesque arch, and intricate floral and swag details.
The lead rainwater heads and downpipes, adorned with raised ivy leaf motifs, proudly display the date of construction, 1728.
Despite its location in the lively market town of Chippenham in Wiltshire, England, the property presents as a haven of tranquillity, nestled within 4 acres of beautifully designed gardens by award-winning garden designers Julian and Isabel Bannerman.
From formal box topiaries to naturalistic plantings, a picturesque lake, and enchanting woodland areas, the gardens offer a captivating backdrop to this architectural masterpiece.
With its proximity to London, Bath, and its serene location in the heart of Chippenham, The Ivy is a property that promises a life of distinction and refinement.
