About this listing

An exceptional Grade II listed country estate of immense architectural character and historical significance, set within some of Hertfordshire’s most attractive countryside. Believed to date in part from around 1485, the house has evolved over centuries into a remarkable private residence of extraordinary atmosphere and scale. The principal house combines Tudor, Jacobean and later architectural influences, resulting in a home of immense warmth, elegance and individuality. The interiors are beautifully balanced between historic character and modern comfort. Fine original detailing including stone archways, carved timberwork, linenfold paneling, grand fireplaces and a striking minstrel’s gallery sit comfortably alongside later sympathetic additions and carefully considered modernisation. The principal reception rooms are wonderfully proportioned and include a spectacular Great Hall, elegant formal drawing and sitting rooms, library, dining room and beautifully appointed kitchen and breakfast spaces designed for modern family living and entertaining alike. The bedroom accommodation is equally impressive, with a number of luxurious suites enjoying far-reaching views across the gardens and grounds. Beyond the principal house, the estate continues to unfold beautifully. A substantial courtyard complex provides extensive ancillary accommodation including staff and guest cottages, flats, offices, garaging, workshops and stabling, centered around an attractive clock tower and Grade II listed dovecot. The estate also benefits from a detached Gardener’s Cottage together with extensive storage and estate facilities. The grounds are exceptional and have been thoughtfully curated over many years. Extending to around 21 acres, they include formal gardens, rolling lawns, mature parkland, ancient trees, a croquet lawn, rose gardens, wildflower meadow, orchard, ornamental lake with Arts and Crafts boathouse, arboretum and a heated outdoor swimming pool enclosed by yew hedging and brick walls. Approached via wrought iron gates and a sweeping tree-lined drive, possessing a rare sense of arrival and seclusion, whilst remaining conveniently positioned for access into London and the surrounding Hertfordshire countryside. A deeply atmospheric English country estate of rare quality and provenance. Material information pack;Show more
