Salford Manor

Wavendon Road, Salford, Milton Keynes, Bedfordshire

Independent reading

An early-18th-century Grade II Queen Anne manor with seven bedrooms, a detached two-bedroom cottage, one-bedroom annexe, pool, tennis court, lake and equestrian facilities in a private village setting.

The £3m guide is about £576 per currently marketed 5,212 sq ft, not a valuation. The exact boundary, principal-house/coach-house split, listed-building approvals, cottage and annexe status, pool and equestrian condition, and actual estate costs must be reconciled before an offer.

The 30-second view

Three things worth knowing.

01 / What draws us in

Grade II Queen Anne manor, sympathetically extended and modernised for family and estate living

02 / What to ask

Whether title, signed component areas, listed-building approvals and pool, drainage and estate-condition records support the guide without hidden heritage or operating liabilities.

03 / What remains open

The current 5,212 sq ft headline is not yet reconciled to the historic brochure's component schedule or the cottage, annexe and extensive outbuildings, so the £576 per sq ft comparison is only an attributed headline denominator.

How we assess this homeOptional scores, the reasons behind them and the detailed decision tools.

These are Aveno’s editorial assessments, not valuations, survey findings or guarantees. Design scores describe the selection; data-readiness scores describe how complete the recorded evidence is. Higher scores do not mean fewer purchase risks.
