Last Listing description (September 2024)

Introducing to the market, a property steeped in local history and significance. Acquired in the 1940s by active local gardener Ralph Sangster, who played a pivotal role in establishing the National Rhododendron Gardens, this stunning 5 acres approx. estate holds a story as vibrant as its gorgeous landscape. Originally a family home built on-site by Ralph, it later underwent a comprehensive expansion by the Catholic Church, serving as a seminary for training priests before transforming into a retirement home for nuns. This property has always been tightly held with this being the first time offered for sale in 25 years.

Fast forward into modern times, the estate has undergone extensive enhancements and updates by its current owners, optimising it for efficiency and sustainability. During their tenure, it has been well-known as "A Country House," serving as a thriving Bed & Breakfast, where travellers enjoyed a cosy stay amidst the picturesque park like gardens.

The home is grand in scale and highlights include its conference size living rooms both upstairs and downstairs that feature high ceilings, timber fires and picturesque garden windows. A lobby style entrance with grand staircase. Two suites under the roof line with original hand painted stain glass windows. A music studio for the musician.
