Wytham Abbey’s asking price slashed by 60% after failure to find buyer

Oxfordshire manor once planned as hub for global technologists and philosophers now offered at 5.95m

Wytham Abbey, a 15th-century grade I-listed manor that was once planned as a hub for technologists and philosophers to solve some of the world's toughest problems, has had its sale price slashed by 60% to 5.95m as its charity owners struggle to find a buyer.

The Effective Ventures Foundation (EVF), formerly the Centre for Effective Altruism, bought the 27-bedroom, 18-bathroom Oxfordshire estate in April 2022.
