Welcome to Chandor Gardens
Step into a world where art, nature, and history blend beautifully. Once the private estate of renowned portrait artist Douglas Chandor—whose works captured figures like Winston Churchill, Queen Elizabeth, and President Franklin D. Roosevelt—the gardens are now a treasured destination for visitors from near and far.
Blending the ornate beauty of ancient Chinese architecture with the refined charm of an English formal garden, Chandor Gardens offers 3.5 acres of breathtaking landscapes. Stroll along winding pathways and discover delights at every turn.
The Perfect Place for Your Event or Photography
