Impressive Compact Country Estate in the heart of Sunningdale.
Description
Wardour Lodge is a unique opportunity to reimagine a compact country estate in
the heart of prime Sunningdale Village.
The estate has been owned by the same family for several generations spanning
70 plus years and consists of three separate buildings including the main
period house dating back to the 1860s, a mews house and a bungalow known as
Chishill. Each of the individual properties would benefit from upgrading or
redevelopment subject to planning permission.
The impressive setting of almost 10 acres of landscaped grounds surrounded by
mature woodland creates an oasis in the village and is arguably the best kept
secret in Sunningdale.
The property is reached by an impressive sweeping gravel driveway leading
through the beautiful grounds arriving at the main house and passing by The
Mews and exiting onto Dry Arch Road.
Wardour Lodge is an impressive country house currently divided into 5
individual apartments though one can imagine it being brought back into one
fine family home. There is the benefit of secondary accommodation with both
The Mews and Chishill providing excellent guest or staff accommodation each
with their own garaging and courtyard gardens leading to the formal grounds.
This is an opportunity to create a wonderful family home or homes in one of
the largest single plots in the village of Sunningdale in the Royal Borough of
Windsor and Maidenhead.
