Property Description
A rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional country residence extending to approximately 2,000 sq ft, offering its own private front door and entrance porch, four well-proportioned bedrooms, a magnificent principal reception room, a spacious eat-in kitchen/dining room, and beautifully maintained private gardens. Further benefits include a garage and private driveway parking. Offered to the market with no onward chain.

Steeped in charm and character, this unique home boasts a fascinating local history. Ideally positioned adjacent to Mentmore Towers, The Bothy originally formed part of the gardener’s accommodation for the Rothschild Estate, constructed in 1893. The property was thoughtfully converted in 1954 to create two separate apartments, and today retains a wealth of period features that have been carefully restored and reinstated, blending historic charm with modern living.

The accommodation includes a welcoming lounge featuring a characterful fireplace, creating a cosy yet elegant focal point. The kitchen is fitted with an array of floor and wall-mounted units, complemented by solid wooden worktops, providing both style and practicality. An additional reception room opens onto a delightful roof terrace, offering a wonderful space for relaxing or entertaining. Further benefits include a home office, utility room, and cloakroom, enhancing the flexibility of the layout.

There are four bedrooms served by a well-appointed four-piece family bathroom, completing the internal accommodation.

Externally, the property is complemented by delightful, well-established private gardens, creating a peaceful outdoor retreat. A garage and driveway parking add to the practicality, making this an ideal full-time residence, weekend escape, or second home. Mentmore itself is renowned for its exclusivity and charm, surrounded by parkland and countryside, with The Stag at Mentmore providing a popular and highly regarded local dining spot.

Mentmore is a quintessential English country village, beautifully positioned on a hilltop approximately seven miles north of Tring. Rich in history and mentioned in the Domesday Book, the village is centred around the striking Mentmore Towers, commissioned by Baron Meyer Amschel de Rothschild and designed by Joseph Paxton alongside George Henry Stokes. Much of the village was rebuilt to house estate workers, resulting in the picturesque and characterful setting seen today, with far-reaching views across the Vale of Aylesbury and a historic church dating back to the 13th century.

A truly special home in an equally special setting—early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate all that is on offer.
