Located on Abbots Leigh, on the edge of Bristol, Leigh Court has served as the set for high profile productions including ITV’s Sandition, Netflix’s Bridgerton and BBC’s Doctor Who.
The Grade II listed house is set within 22 acres of parkland and woodlands, providing a unique setting whilst only being 3.5 miles from the city centre.
The gorgeous country home is built from Bath stone in the Palladian style, with elegant Greek Revival interiors that reflect its rich heritage.
The estate’s history extends over 200 years, with its origins tracing back to the Tudor era.
The original Leigh Court was built in 1558 by Sir George Norton and demolished in 1812 following its sale to Sir Philip John Miles.
The Miles family retained ownership until 1915, when it was sold to Rev. Burden of Clevedon Hall and in 2004, Business West – the region’s Chamber of Commerce – acquired the property.
The main house offers about 26,157 sq.ft. of accommodation arranged over four floors and currently operates as a wedding, corporate and events venue.
The property has been brought onto the market by Alder King property consultants, with the firm having previously acquired the property for the current owners 21 years ago. Leigh Court is being offered for sale freehold, with offers invited in excess of £5.5 million.
Simon Price, partner at Alder King and acting agent for the sale, commented: “Leigh Court offers a rare opportunity to acquire a property with significant historical and architectural value in a well-connected location. Its scale and flexibility make it an interesting prospect for a range of potential buyers.”
