Africa-Press – Gambia. <\/strong><\/span>If you fancy living the life of a Downton Abbey lord or lady on your own magnificent country park estate, this could be the place for you – but you\u2019ll need the inheritance to go with it. Elmestree House is an Elizabethan-style mansion surrounded by more than 100 acres of land near Tetbury, with an impressive long private drive bounded by trees leading up to the house.<\/p>\n

One can just imagine the aristocratic Crawley family approaching the manor along the drive in a coach and four or on horseback, with glorious parkland surrounding them. The estate, on the market for a cool \u00a38million, dates back to the 12th Century when the then the Manor of Elymundestre was given to the monks of the Benedictine Abbey of S. Ebrulph in Normandy.<\/p>\n

Handsome Elmestree House was originally built in 1844, with the addition of a transformed 17th Century farmhouse called Farm End and a connecting wing built several years later, turning it into an 11-bedroomed stately home. It has been in the current owners\u2019 family since they purchased it in 1949.<\/p>\n

The new owners will be able to use Farm End as a separate and spacious family home, with its own private garden, or incorporated back into the main house through the linking wing which was originally the carriage entrance. There\u2019s also a substantial, self-contained three-bedroom annexe behind the main house built in 1900 and accessed separately, which has a small private garden and views across the parkland, plus another detached two-bedroomed lodge which stands guarding the main entrance.Estate agents Strutt and Parker are selling the entire estate which they say provides a fantastic opportunity for a fabulous restoration project of a traditional English manor house and farmstead. The 106-acre Cotswold parklands stand within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty two miles outside Tetbury, with extensive lawns, a small lake and several outbuildings in need of complete restoration.<\/p>\n

Beyond the house are the remaining features of 19th Century pleasure gardens bounded by a protective ha-ha, a brick-edged ditch designed as an invisible barrier between the house and grounds beyond where livestock may have once grazed. Directly to the north of the house, lies a range of traditional Cotswold stone buildings including a former cart shed, two storey stable block, coach house, cow shed with original stone pillars, a large agricultural building and further storage sheds.Beyond the walled garden, to the west lies a further set of traditional farm buildings and farmyard, including a large traditional Cotswold stone barn. All of the outbuildings are in need of restoration but give much scope for development subject to necessary planning consents.<\/p>\n

Most of the land is pasture, studded with fine trees and interspersed with mature woodland and ponds. Nestled in a small copse of woodland, lies Pond Cottage, a derelict, waterside cottage which would provide another secluded property.<\/p>\n
