A magnificent seven-bedroom country home with a sprawling New Forest estate is on the market for £18million after going up for sale for the first time in 400 years.
The Newhouse Estate, just outside the village of Redlynch in Salisbury, Wiltshire, boasts 900 acres of farmland, parkland, woods and extensive lawned gardens, which when combined is larger than New York s Central Park, or more than two times the size of London s Hyde Park.
Inside the historic Grade I Listed Jacobean mansion seems small by comparison, with only seven spacious bedrooms, five reception rooms - which include a breakfast room library - and three bathrooms.

The Newhouse Estate was inherited by George and June Jeffreys in 1986 who transformed it from a dilapidated condition to its former glory. Today, potential buyers have ample opportunity to further enhance the property, with the necessary consents.

Mark McAndrew, Head of National Estates and Farms at Strutt & Parker said: Newhouse is a truly stunning, historic, but incredibly manageable house. Newhouse is not vast and is in fact a beautiful family home in a quite extraordinary position. One thing that people are searching for is privacy and tranquillity, of which the Estate has in abundance.
