A rare opportunity to purchase a Grade II* listed Elizabethan manor house with a wealth of original historic heritage. This beautiful 17th century manor house offers elegance, a welcoming layout with charm and character throughout. Collinfield Manor house is set within a private courtyard setting with established gardens, gated driveway, plentiful parking including a self contained annex, called the Granary. Which could be sold off separately. This fantastic property offers versatile accommodation to be a family residence with on-site rental potential. The manor house is of significant interest to Kendal’s history. The main building references to dates as far back as 1614, but is believed to date back to the late 1500’s. The bespoke fitments throughout the manor reference to the ownership of “Geoffrey Sedgwick” who purchased the property in 1668, whom was the secretary of “Lady Ann Clifford” who was named as a friend of “Queen Elizabeth I”. Many of the original features from the panelled walls, hidden priest hole, spice racks, mullioned windows, exposed beams and the large brick inglenook fireplace have been commissioned for Collinfield manor or by Geoffrey Sedgwick who’s initials you can find within bespoke woodwork in the dining room and former prayer room. The main entrance doorway which leads you into the manor along with the stone plaque above the porch, are believed to have been brought from Brougham Castle to the manor by Lady Ann, which bears the Latin inscription: 'NVNC MEA, MOX HVIVS SED POSTEA, NESCIO CVIVS', which translates as 'Now mine, presently his, Afterwards I know not whose.' The lock to the original oak door was a gift from Lady Ann and bears her initials AP (Ann of Pembroke) and the key to the lock hangs above the fireplace in the dining room. The manor house is spacious and provides a large reception room, formal dining room, dining kitchen, pantry, study, two store rooms and a basement. Three double bedrooms, two bathroom suites & a W.C.
