Kennaway House, Regency mansion in Sidmouth, England.

The brick residence displays characteristic Regency architecture with pillared porches, bow windows, and a curved canopy verandah over the second entrance point.

Built in 1805 as Fort House, the property became part of the Kennaway estate through John Kennaway, who gained his fortune from the East India Company.

The structure transitioned from a family residence to Church House in 1906, serving as a center for parish activities and community gatherings.

The mansion contains three reception rooms and accommodates up to 100 guests for events, with catering facilities and outdoor spaces for ceremonies.

Following extensive restoration funded by National Lottery and local initiatives, residents chose the name Kennaway House through a public vote in 2007.
