A Rare Opportunity to Rent a Gabled Manor of Distinction:-
Welcome to Serengeti Manor, a characterful and storied estate unlike any other — a rare opportunity to make your home in a lovingly built manor house designed by a passionate Italian settlor with a flair for life, beauty, and timeless architecture. This elegant gabled residence stands proudly on two acres of flat, mature gardens and comes complete with a swimming pool, tennis court, and private guest cottage.
This is more than a home; it's a place where memories are made and legacies lived.
A Sanctuary of Charm and Elegance
From the moment you arrive, Serengeti Manor enchants. A red-brick herringbone driveway winds beneath the graceful arms of an umbrella tree, offering shade for your arrival and a whimsical playground for little ones. Ahead, the gabled home rises — its presence both grand and welcoming, framed by manicured lawns and expansive greenery that beckons you to pause and breathe.
Refined Interiors for Inspired Living
Step inside to traditional terracotta tiles and polished wooden floors, all beneath soaring double-height ceilings. The entrance hall offers an immediate sense of grandeur and intimacy — leading you to a series of beautifully appointed living spaces.
To your right, an elegant sitting room with a fireplace and built-in bar spills onto a wide, covered veranda — an ideal setting for al fresco entertaining beneath the African sky. A formal dining room with garden views promises long evenings of laughter and shared stories, while a second cosy lounge invites relaxed mornings with coffee or a good book.
The expansive kitchen, fitted with two generous pantries and a breakfast area, is a culinary haven for the home chef or host alike.
Private Wings & Thoughtful Design
Upstairs, the home divides into two serene wings. The children's wing offers a three-room suite, perfect for sleep, play, study — or all three.
The parents' wing is a sanctuary in itself, featuring a grand master bedroom with vaulted ceilings, dual bathrooms (his and hers), a dedicated dressing room, and serene views on both sides. A versatile adjoining room can serve as a nursery, reading lounge, or private retreat. The entire wing is secured with a discreet security door for peace of mind.
In total, the manor boasts seven elegant gables a testament to its architectural pedigree.
Charming Guest Cottage
Tucked just behind the main home lies a two-bedroom ensuite guest cottage with its own living and dining room and a sun-dappled courtyard shaded by a young tree — perfect for morning coffee or a restful afternoon read. Upstairs, a cosy landing joins the two bedrooms, offering privacy and charm for guests or extended family.
Exceptional Outdoor Living
The estate grounds are a celebration of nature and leisure. Mature gardens stretch across two flat acres, alive with birdsong and blooming colour. The swimming pool and tennis court offer idyllic afternoons outdoors.
Every detail at Serengeti Manor has been thoughtfully curated — from the gables that catch the morning light to the warmth of wood underfoot and the breeze whispering through the trees. This is not just a home — it's a celebration of life, heritage, and style.
