Description
Manwood Lodge is a substantial Art Deco house that was once the boys' boarding house for Sir Roger Manwood's School. The property is in need of renovation, but retains many original features, including rich mahogany panelling, feature fireplaces, and high ceilings. The ground floor features a grand central drawing room with double doors leading to a sunny garden room, which overlooks the original formal pond. The property also has a turret with wooden panelling, a study, two cloakrooms, and a kitchen wing with a larder and utility space. The first and second floors offer a total of 14 bedrooms, with four bath/shower rooms and a cloakroom serving the bedrooms. The property also includes Holly Cottage, a smaller house that was once the gatehouse to Manwood Lodge, which needs complete modernisation and re-modelling. The property has extensive private gardens and a large parking area to the front, as well as a small private garden to the front of Holly Cottage. Located in the historic town of Sandwich, the property offers easy access to a wide range of shops, schools, and cultural attractions, as well as the coast and surrounding countryside.
