The property provides impressive and elegantly proportioned accommodation, offering the potential to update and create a fantastic home. Arranged over three floors, with an abundance of period features including high decorative ceilings, fabulous fireplaces, wood panelling and a feature stone staircase which is lit by an attractive Venetian window. All the rooms enjoy a superb outlook both over the garden to the rear and the countryside to the front. The house is surrounded by delightful gardens and grounds of approximately 3.52 acres.

Upon entering this elegant home, you will find, a welcoming reception hall, three spacious reception rooms, including an impressive drawing room, library and a dining room. A large kitchen/breakfast room and a cloakroom completes the ground floor. The first floor has four generous double bedrooms and a shower room.

Gardens and Grounds
Bordean Manor House is approached via a long gravel driveway leading to the front of the property. The gardens and grounds are mainly laid to lawn, to the south and west. At the front of the house, and adjacent to the drive a bank leads down to a large area of lawn. To the west side of the house are further areas of lawn with a number of mature trees and established herbaceous shrubs. To the rear of the property there is a delightful York stone paved terrace adjacent to the principal reception rooms. The gardens offer delightful areas for recreation whilst at the same time creating a feeling of openness backing on to the countryside. We understand when the land was acquired there is a right of way in benefit of the neighbouring property for access, upon request, for the purpose of garden machinery access.

History of Bordean Manor
The oldest part of Bordean House is believed to date back to the 17th Century, having been built by Sir Roger Langrish in 1611 and is constructed of malmstone and brick with a slate roof. The estate was later used by the Navy and Civil Defense during World War II until the late 1970s whereby it was then utilised by Sue Ryder as a care home until the late 1990’s. This stunning country house was then later divided, extended and remodelled to what exists today.
