Description
Bingham's Melcombe Manor House is a stunning Grade I listed property situated in 39.76 acres of historic gardens and parkland. The property has a rich history dating back to the medieval period and has been in the same family ownership for over 40 years. The manor house features various architectural styles from different periods, including a 14th-century gatehouse, a 17th-century stable block, and a 17th-century dovecote. The interior boasts a mix of 17th and 18th-century panelling, elaborate chimney pieces, and original fireplaces. The property has been lovingly maintained and is a warm, welcoming family home with enormous charm and historical pedigree. The gardens, largely attributed to renowned landscape architect Sir Geoffrey Jellicoe, are a masterpiece of informal pleasure grounds, with formal gardens, a bowling green, a summer house, and a tennis court. The property is a true treasure, offering a unique blend of history, architecture, and natural beauty.
