Grade II Listed Hertfordshire Estate

Hertfordshire

Set within 800 acres of private estate in the heart of the English countryside, this Grade II listed Manor House is one of the most significant residential projects our studio has undertaken. A grand and composed country residence of exceptional historic character, it presents a calm architectural presence defined by classical proportions, a commanding sense of arrival, and a deep-rooted connection to its surrounding landscape. The setting is integral to everything. Sweeping views across parkland, manicured gardens, walled grounds and natural lakes inform both the planning and atmosphere of the interiors, encouraging a seamless relationship between inside and out. This is a home that belongs entirely to its landscape, and every interior decision we make reflects that.

Our approach honours the integrity of this historic country house, while creating a timeless backdrop for contemporary luxury living. Classical detailing and generous proportions are preserved and celebrated throughout- from the grand reception hall to the formal drawing room- while subtle enhancements to spatial flow ensure the home supports modern life without compromising its architectural authenticity. Throughout, the emphasis is on light, refined materiality and enduring elegance. Traditional elements are sensitively modernised, resulting in interiors that feel rooted in the history of the English country house while remaining entirely of the present. Every surface, finish and considered detail is designed to reflect the scale, grandeur and quiet magnificence of this exceptional estate.
