A COMPLETE RESIDENTIAL AND SPORTING ESTATE IN UNDULATING WELL WOODED COUNTRYSIDE

A complete residential and sporting estate in undulating well wooded countryside.

In all approximately 1,744 acres (706 hectares).

The Estate lies in beautiful unspoilt rolling North Hertfordshire countryside, close to the Cambridgeshire and Essex borders. The house, which is set in the middle of glorious gardens, dates back to the 16th Century and provides a wonderful core to a magnificant estate.

Recorded in the Domesday Book, there used to be a village but it was deserted in the 15th Century. Plans of earlier buindings were drawn in 1578 when the house was being considered as a stop on a royal progress. The house contains the fragmentary remains of a lodgings range, built in a bout 1570, for Sir Richard Chester.
