About this property

A Grade I listed manor of national importance, set within one of England's most celebrated historic estates History With origins tracing back to 1212, Rothamsted Manor stands among historically significant country houses in Hertfordshire, its long and distinguished past woven into the fabric of the building itself. Over the centuries, the Manor has evolved in both form and function, with a major transformation during the 17th century shaping much of the elegant architectural composition that is admired today.
