To the Manor Reborn | Fine Art & Antiques Auction 24 & 25 May 2022
Tidenham Manor is an exquisite country house built on the site of an historic building and set in formal gardens with an outstanding view over the River Severn. Located on the Monmouthshire/Gloucestershire border, the design for this grand home, complete with housekeeper’s annexe and stables, was inspired by the Venetian architect, Andrea Palladio. Constructed in 2005, Tidenham Manor is situated just north of Chepstow and enjoys panoramic views of the Bristol Channel. The owners furnished the property with a mixture of antique and fine quality reproduction furniture creating rich and elegant interiors. The house has recently changed hands and Chorley’s are pleased to offer the principal contents for auction including furniture, mirrors, carpets, ceramics, glass, garden statuary and a good collection of cigars, wine and champagne. Highlights
