A magnificent Grade II period property that has been extensively restored to accommodate all aspects of 21st century living. Set on the edge of the village with far reaching views and behind a set of electric gates.

Believed to be a hunting lodge for King Henry VIII, Cainhoe Manor sits at the top of a small hill on the outer reaches of the village. This superb pre Tudor house has indications of earlier 14th Century existence & has been later remodelled in the 18th, 19th & 20th centuries. During the current owners' 25 years of ownership the Manor has been entirely re-roofed, re-plumbed, re-wired & re-pointed.
The ground floor is well laid out with large formal reception rooms & smaller day-to-day family rooms. Upstairs there is a south facing master suite with triple aspect views, 3 further bedrooms & 2 bathrooms on the first floor. The second floor has 2 further bedrooms & a large storage room.
The stable courtyard has extensive garaging, a 2 bed flat, indoor swimming pool, gym, cinema/party room with a kitchen, WC & stores.
The gardens surround the property with a main lawn to the south. They also include an outdoor pool & pool house, tennis court, orchard & sun terrace.
