An exceptional four/five-bedroom country residence set within beautifully landscaped gardens, complete with a spacious covered entertainment area, a self-contained one-bedroom annexe, and a double garage.

About The Property
Mandalay Cottage is an immaculately presented home boasting versatile and generous living accommodation, designed with both comfort and style in mind. The main house offers three double bedrooms alongside two additional occasional bedrooms, three reception rooms, and a substantial gym. The self-contained annexe provides excellent potential for a holiday let, home office, or multi-generational living.
Located at the heart of the grounds, and attached to the main house, lies a striking oak-framed entertaining pavilion, complete with an outdoor kitchen, wood-burning stove, and ample space for gatherings. The landscaped gardens feature sweeping lawns, terraces, and a charming summer house, creating a wonderful setting for year-round enjoyment.
About the Inside
A welcoming entrance hall with exposed stonework opens into a light-filled, triple-aspect living/dining room with French doors to the garden and a wood-burning stove set in a stone fireplace. A separate study overlooks the front garden, while the contemporary kitchen is a true centrepiece, fitted with bespoke cabinetry, integrated appliances, a striking island with circular dining table, and trifold doors leading to the terrace. A walk-in pantry is cleverly hidden behind oak doors.
Through a characterful stone archway, the family room provides a further relaxing space, with French doors to the garden, access to the utility room and cloakroom, and a staircase leading to an occasional bedroom complete with shower facilities.
The ground floor also includes a superb gym, featuring arched windows, French doors to the garden, and a discreet shower room. A staircase leads to a further bedroom, which links seamlessly to the principal suite above.
Upstairs, three double bedrooms are beautifully presented. The principal suite boasts its own balcony, dressing room, sleek en-suite shower room, and private sauna. Another bedroom enjoys a balcony with far-reaching views, while a modern family bathroom and additional en-suite complete the layout.
About the Outside
Approached via ornate electric gates and a long private driveway, the property is surrounded by landscaped gardens offering both privacy and tranquillity. Expansive lawns, paved seating areas, and well-stocked borders provide an idyllic backdrop. A summer house, perched above a curved stone staircase, offers stunning views. The oak-framed entertainment area creates an impressive focal point, with space for outdoor dining, a living area with wood-burning stove, and even a screen for al fresco film nights.
About The Annexe
The stylishly finished annexe has its own courtyard garden and independent access. Inside, an open-plan kitchen/living area features a skylight, French doors, and a wood-burning stove. A spacious double bedroom and contemporary shower room complete the accommodation, with an attached store room offering further potential to extend.
