Hanger Court

(Knight Frank)

4 bedroom house for sale in Hawkley Hurst, Hawkley, Liss, Hampshire, GU33 - £1,395,000

Located in the South Downs National Park in a spectacular country setting within woodland on high ground and fine views, Hanger Court is a wing of a Grade II listed country mansion, Hawkley Hurst, dating back to 1861. It was designed by the eminent Victorian architect Samuel Sanders Teulon. After World War II, the estate was divided up into eight separate properties, including 3 apartments, with partly private and partly communal gardens. Hanger Court has been completely refurbished to an extremely high standard but retains character and period features.

The current owner says,“From the moment we first saw Hanger Court in 2017 we were sold – we didn’t need to see it twice! It was so different from other houses we’d seen and nowhere else was offering a real life princess tower!

“For us, being part of Hawkley Hurst and living at Hanger Court is a privilege, we are but custodians of this very special place.  Being within the South Downs National Park and the Hangers’ means we are one with nature, every window tells a story whether it’s the changing colours of the seasons, the call of the birds – of which there are many, or just the sheer majesty of the gardens surrounding us.  And living in a fairy tower is the icing on the cake!”

Tawstock Castle

(Knight Frank)

4 bedroom castle for sale in Tawstock, Barnstaple, Devon, EX31 - £1,500,000

Tawstock Castle is an exquisite 18th-century Grade II listed Bailey Castle. Set majestically on a hilltop within 8.41 acres of private, fenced grounds, approached via a long private gated driveway, this stunning castle offers panoramic 360-degree views over the picturesque North Devon countryside. Its unique circular motte-and-bailey design overlooks the tranquil Taw Valley, providing a serene yet awe-inspiring living experience.

Boasting original structures dating back to the 18th century, the property has been meticulously extended and restored, preserving its historical integrity while incorporating modern conveniences. The castle features castellated battlements, and ornately corniced ceilings, showcasing the craftsmanship of a bygone era

The owners say: “In 2021 we relocated from Monaco during Covid and were amazed to find a “Goldilocks” castle in England that was within our budget. Unlike vast castles reliant on public funds and all the constraints attached to that, Tawstock is a castle in which you can freely create your own fairytale, making it a true pleasure to own!

“Having a particular penchant for Arthurian times, I started my fairytale with replicating a smaller version of King Arthur’s round table and making the grail to sit upon it and acquired a replica of Excalibur to preside over it.

I also love the baroque interiors of French castles and invariably any finds from the reclamation yard I cover in gold leaf. Outside we have created a Secret Garden and did plan to install a beautiful Versailles style fountain in front of the castle. Tawstock Castle is undoubtedly that castle of fairytales, a castle upon the hill, to discover to inhabit a castle in which to create your own realm!”

The owners say: "Goodworth house is a loving home that invites you in and enchants you to stay. It has woven its spell over us with warm sunny days of croquet and long evenings of music and stargazing. In autumn we gather the blackberry and apple harvests. Then winter brings roaring log fires and carols by the Christmas tree in the hall. Having lived here since 2001, it has been our serene sanctuary where friends stay long and often and yet the hustle and bustle of London life is easily accessible too."
