St. Ouen's Manor is a manor house in the parish of St. Ouen, Jersey, and is the traditional home of the Seigneur of St. Ouen, and the ancestral home of the De Carteret family.{{cite web|url=http://www.stouensmanor.com/|title=Home|website=St Ouen's Manor|accessdate=17 July 2018}}{{cite web|url=http://www.stouensmanor.com/our-design|title=Manor and Gardens|website=St Ouen's Manor|accessdate=17 July 2018}}
The earliest record of the house dates from 1135.{{cite web |url=http://www.stouensmanor.com/2/front.html |title=Archived copy |accessdate=2012-03-30 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120502052403/http://www.stouensmanor.com/2/front.html |archivedate=2012-05-02 }}
As a part of the 1940 Jersey local elections, the manor was offered to the victor, Edward Campbell. However, Campbell became disillusioned with the idea, and declined.{{cite book | title=Channel Islands: Jersey, Guernsey, Alderney, Sark | publisher=Leo Cooper | author=Forty, George | year=2002}}
The house and grounds remain intact today, and the house is a private home for the De Carteret family. It is occasionally open to the public.
