The Property
Cossington Park House is an attractive Grade II listed family home found in stunning formal walled gardens, which total in the region of one acre. Retained within our client’s family for nearly 400 years, this characterful home boasts flexible accommodation, which is generously proportioned, and is arranged predominately over two floors. This fabulous home, its gardens and separate cottage have combined to create Cossington Park Estate as a home for family gatherings, which remains operational.

The property dates back to the 17th century with extensions in the 19th and 20th centuries. Cossington Park House affords accommodation approaching 5000 ft.² boasting light-filled rooms and an enormous amount of character and period charm. On the ground floor there are three large welcoming reception rooms each with an individual feeling of warmth. These include a drawing room with an Inglenook fireplace and log burning stove, the morning room and an impressive dining hall with stunning parquet flooring, all of which open onto the south-facing main garden. These reception rooms are complemented by a conservatory with a wraparound view of the garden. The kitchen features a range of integrated appliances and Belfast sink with high spec cooking range and a wealth of storage. A breakfast room adjoins the kitchen to offer an informal dining space with useful scullery and separate utility room close by.

The first floor is accessed via two separate staircases. Six bedrooms enjoy either en suite or family bathroom facilities, with each room affording a beautiful outlook over the private gardens.

Outside
The established gardens are a key feature of this magnificent setting. The walled gardens are almost entirely level and enjoy the sun throughout much of the day, combining mature flower and shrubbery specimen trees, including the oldest Chinese elm in Britain, brought here from the Far East by the present owner’s ancestors.

The kitchen garden has a range of sheds and storage facilities. This area also has outline planning permission for a large, single-storey multi-purpose room, which could be an office or additional living accommodation.

There is secure parking for multiple vehicles with shared access. Also shared is the boiler room attached to the eastern elevation of the house, with biomass boiler installed which has outline planning permission for conversion to a one-bedroom housekeeper’s cottage. Shared use of storage barns, gardening shed and tool workshop can be available by negotiation.
