I worked on this house when it was built! It's beautiful and just up into the woods behind you can look down into the quarry/diving centre.
The chandelier is on an electric winch for cleaning.
There were 9 men hired for about 8 months from Greece to lay all of the marble and granite inside and out.
All of the internal walls are solid block, not partition plasterboard walls.
The conservatory and kitchen were supplied by Leaks and cost more than my house in Cardiff.
Amazing to see it on here and see how much its going for now!
Wow. What did U work as?
I installed the security alarm system and the video intercom system.
hi can you tell me wats the internet speed like in this area and is it worth the asking price?
Perhaps Del Boy and Grandad can clean the chandelier!
That’s a millstone, used for grinding wheat and other grains, in the cottage at 17:00
On the estate agent website this is called a cider press in Cider Cottage.
@@lparky4409 The really antique ones look similar to this as well.
Grain grinding have horizontal stones with the grain going in the middle and flour coming out the edge. Looks more like a fruit grinder to me. Peace.
Now I'd expect our American schoolchildren not to know the millstone as they know little about anything. But your country has real history. These two must have been raised in cities, and know nothing of history or old methods of village life.
It's a cider press.
Okay, now THIS is my favorite house. I love the layout of the rooms upstairs.
Before this I watched their video on a 3-million pound castle and though it was a must-have. But seeing this, I think I like it better. Many old historic homes are like living in a maze, with rooms opening into other rooms and "period" baths, lack of central heat and air, etc. Also the ceiling height seemed more in scale for the rooms. Considering they had artisans from Greece brought in to do the marble work, and the quality of all the finishes, the price actually seems pretty reasonable.
Great video, I pray who ever sees this be successful in life 💖❤️
Don't pray too hard. Some people gather wealth through deception and legal theft.
well thanks!
Thanks,hope same for you
Lol that be a first for me.
That is a grist mill in the cottage
In the cottage, the big stone looks like a millstone used in gristmills, for grinding wheat or other grains
It is a millstone... for making flour out of cereal grains (wheat, rye, oats and the like). Also it could be used to make cornmeal from corn kernals as well.
Also it would have been turned by a horse.
Some are driven by water (a water mill!), but not in this case I think.
Steve Rennie It's an apple mill for crushing apples as part of the cider making process. She even (sort of) mentioned it at the beginning, bit described the building as a "side mill" having clearly misheard the estate agent when it was described to her.
@@spencerwilton5831 yes that makes sense! That would've bugged me not knowing 🤣 it'd be so satisfying to crush apples with that stone.
Its a CIDER Press …..
And yet this is priced less than the London fire station stable flat you toured a couple of days ago. This'll cost a fortune to maintain though.
Yep, but getting the tube from this house would be a bit more of a pain.
Location, location, location... London prices are exceedingly high.
There are parking spaces in Chelsea which go for £500,000.... That's a regular parking space
19:23 Matt sees a spider and calls the ice tour off 😊 - Great tour guys, I think this was my favourite tour because it was just so big and I enjoyed seeing the gardens too. Thank you
living in this manor will make u feel like a royalty 👑
Gosh never seen an orangery like that! I'm stunned. Thank you Matt and Summer for letting me visit these beautiful Uk spots with you ❤️
For me, that would be the selling point (if I was at an income level that could afford it along with the gardener and one, maybe a housekeeper and an additional person for helping clean the house.
@@balesjo your going to need an army of cleaners, repairmen, landscapers, gardeners, handymen, and security guards, butlers, cooks, chauffeurs and a personal assistant!
I never cease to be amazed as to how far your money will go in the countryside. Not only is the main manor house enormous, but there is a lot of land AND another decent sized house in the garden. In Kensington, this same sum of money would get you a townhouse with postage stamp garden and on street parking
My gosh, the houses just keep getting better and better. This one is beautiful, and I love the old worldly feel of it as soon as you go inside, and the old millstone and grinding wheel, for grinding wheat into flour is a nice feature in the cottage. Thankyou so much for sharing 😀❤
Yes,true, I like it so much, I am gonna chiken run to ATM to withdraw cash and I buy it !;-)
Cheers from Canada
My favourite house of them all so far. Lovely videos Summer and Matt, keep up the excellent work.
I love the downstairs, especially the kitchen. The garden and outhouses were beautiful as well.
The Ice house... lovely piece of history. For folks who could afford it, they'd hire people to go out onto frozen lakes rivers or streams in the winter to harvest large blocks of ice. One or two people would carry them with these huge tongs, or by horse carriage, to the underground storage places. And even though its underground, it would be packed off with hay and such to help insulate it from the warmth of the summer (which thankfully wasn't much of issue in the UK I don't think - here in North America the summers are blisteringly hot). Home owner would then come in and chip off a chunk to fit inside of an Icebox in the kitchen - a wooden insulated box with a section on the bottom to fit the ice. Also, it wasn't during the 1700s this would have been around... this sort of thing wasn't a thing until the mid 1800s (and right up until the start of WW2). CHeers.
@Matt & summer um.... Investment idea?
Yes, yes, and yes! Perfect for a second home in the country side! Love the landscape and the views!💕💕💕
Hi Matt and Summer. Thanks for sharing. Loved the tour. In my opinion this is better than the knoll and you guys did a great job showcasing it
I've always been a fan of the rolling hills growing up, but now that I live state-side, I appreciate the beauty English countryside that much more.
THATS IT! I WANT TO LIVE IN THIS EXACT HOUSE! Guys, you have the best RUclips career around, what an amazing video!
Whenever I see a house like this I mentally start counting the wages of the staff it would require to maintain the upkeep.
For me there definitely comes a point with some of these homes where they go beyond luxury living and become a job within themselves.
Beautiful none the less, if you can afford that lifestyle then more power to you.
People who will live there are not people like us....
Yeah. I agree with you. There's a balance between luxury and a new full time occupation.
Every house is a job. That's why we marry.
I think the previous owner was quite a successful builder....
I don't think it was long after he built it, he decided to sell up.
So did he build it for himself... or a profit? Its on the site of a previous, delipidated place btw.
As I recall its been listed for sale on and off for about 4 or 5 years. Whether its actually sold one time or more in that time, I don't know. The land registry would say.
Anyway its a lot of upkeep with no really visible sources of income. So the question for most people should be.... WHY?
Living in a very big house can cause problems most people don't understand. I have found that.
Local Villagers: "Do you have the harvest's wheat, Farmer Summer?"
Farmer Summer, holding some squashed milk and ruined wool: "Oh, crap."
lol - Summer's best comment to date. I don't know - these Millennials !!!
You deserve that house for genius wit like that 🤣 Let me know if they hand the keys over, I'll come visit.
Amazing house and thank you for showing us the grounds too, I love the formal garden.
Beautiful property and the garden is stunning! Thanks for sharing it with us.
19:44, Matt's expression and 'see you in the next video', cool.
Great video
I would love to see more manor houses and stately homes 🏡
16:54 That's a mill or a milling stone. It could have been used to mill any number of things wheat into flour or even olives into oil guessing flour, England isn't know for it's olive oil. Looks to be top driven like a windmill but I suppose it could also have been driven by a beast of burden like a mule, donkey, or steer. This property was most likely a working farm at some point and this is an homage to its humble beginnings. Also, it could be that that entire contraption probably weighs a couple tons (or Tonnes) and was easier to just build around it.
Gotta say it's adorable watching you two scratch your head guessing things like milk and wool. The thought of that thing making milk by crushing cows into a thin paste will haunt my dreams tonight.
you guys always make the best content on real estate, I always wait for your new video, love from India.
Hey guys, enjoyed today's tour and have to say, I love a property with its own roundabout. See u soon. X
Really stunning...I like everything about this place.
It’s been tastefully decorated too.
Another great video guys thanks for exploring for us!
This is one of my favourites up to now. And the grounds are stunning! 5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Omg, I am totally in love with this incredibly beautiful place. Heaven on earth and exactly what I am looking for. Thank you for sharing. Your content here is amazing and well done.
found your channel earlier this week. now im obsessed with all your videos.
Can’t imagine how long these must take to edit! Thanks for another great video💖
Its a milling stone for grinding probably corn or whatever they grew in the grounds
A cider press.
Oh my goodness...this home has chkd every box I've always had on my dream list.
I love all the countryside places please do some more tours thanks guys
Beautiful!❤️ Thanks for the tour!😊
I love how quickly he changed his mind about going into the ice room when it occurred to him that could be some Woodland creature residing Within😆
Beautiful home and decorated tastefully. One of the nicest orangeries seen that is not an original. The garden design with low box hedging is an Elizabethan knot garden, related to the French parterre, sometimes yew will be used. and in the living area of the cottage is a grain mill.
I commented 3 years ago that this was my favourite and after all that time it still is.
The price is just as beautiful as the house
Now that’s a proper Estate! Very grand! Thanks guys!
That balcony is the ideal location from which to set the hounds on the local peasants for failing yet again to reach the wheat harvest quota..
well done, keep showing us these amazing properties!
WOOOOOOOOOOW , this manor makes me want to move to UK real soon , that sunroom (Conservatory) is amazing
Oo that’s so cool! I live in Gloucestershire! 💕
That’s crazy to think my favourite you tubers were close to my house😳❤️
yep - Matt didn't quite make it inside, finished off the video at the entrance
- lol, only kidding
@@andrewhouldcroft1116 😂lol
You could almost see my house in the wide shots as well, I am the other side of the water.
Though my house is about half the size of the cottage, so you probably wouldn't be able to see it at all.
@@andrewhouldcroft1116 Hey, I live there!
My absolute most favorite luxury estate with a historical feel of all.
Nice house for the price.
The milk thing is actually a flour mill stone for grinding the flour
The circular stone work with the wheel is a grinder that would have been pulled in a circle by a mule or horse (if bigger it would have been pulled by oxen, but this is small) So this was how they would have ground their wheat,or other crops that would require grinding for use. Neat feature that was kept, but can't be used as you wouldn't want an animal in the house and it would be too heavy to be pulled around by a person. In Russia where my Great-grandfather lived they would have used something similar to press the sunflower seeds to make oil.
I live in Florida and am 75 yrs old and I remember going to the ice house and buying blocks if ice for the ice box in our house
Lovely house and was built the year I was born. Great video keep it up always love the content.
Greenhouse is amazing.The whole complex looks very Italianate in style.
A gardener, (not plural), goes in 3 days a week! KACHIIIIIING! A quality groundsman can command around £25 - 35,000 per year! A live in housekeeper around the same. Maybe a couple of part time cleaners on minimum wage, and you're looking at around at least £60k per year! Use some of the grounds for glamping, put an adventure trail in the woods and rent out the cottage as a holiday let and you might just recoup some of the money spent on staff. The cellar etc could be utilised for a home business of some description. Because unless you have limitless funds there's no way you could afford to live somewhere like this even if you won the Euromillions on a quadruple rollover jackpot. BUT, and I say this having seen a number of Matt & Summer's luxury property videos, you ARE getting a helluva lot for your £3& 3 quarter million! And it's the 1st luxury property I've seen that has a stair lift, (and a mobility scooter), so when can I move in? ;-)
Love this house!!!! And the magnificent view!!!!
Great video guys, interesting property.
Did wonder why Matt did a sharp 360° when at the ice house...lol!
Great video, well done and so glad I found you
It's beautiful, I like the marbles.
So beautiful. THANKS.
*Random* but I’m loving how the music goes with the house- classy 💎
Yes I noticed that too..the piano jazzy classy music goes with the house big time
Deeelightful. Thanks for the vids!
This sort of manor isn't a townhouse of course. It is more a castle than an house, J think. Beautiful. Very very beautiful.
Awesome house tour - keep posting
Sorry, but did have a giggle at Summer's interpretation of the mill! Yes, it's for grinding wheat or corn into flour. Was kinda expecting a badger to leap out at Matt from the ice house! Obviously these were used before the invention of freezers. There is one at Osborne House on the Isle of Wight, too. Fabulous house though! It does make me realise that I am preferring the older type of house, like this, with so much more character.
Exquisite internals just the floor alone in the main hall very nice indeed second video I'm seeing from you guys just a suggestion maybe you guys can do a lot more like these luxury properties Estates Manors, castles ect I'd love to see you guys travel to France and highlight some of their Chateau.
That's a millstone! It would be interesting to learn the history of the property. Was there a grand country house before the new build? It's practically a village with church, stables, mill, etc.
19:00 The "Ice House" looks remarkably similar to a root cellar only worse. The root cellar works off of depth creating a constant temperature, I could be wrong but I believe the depth is 12ft or 3m where there is enough biomass that the temperature stays constant through the hottest and coldest days making it ideal for storing food or in this case Ice. If this is a good representation of an Ice House it's pretty clear why only 4 still exist in England. It isn't deep enough to do what it is intended to and the open wall defeats any purpose it might have had, unless of course there was a stair case going further down where Matt called it quits.
the stone statue in the cottage is an cold stone olive oil press if i'm not mistaken, or at least its deffo used for pressing or milling things :P
.........and this is what I’m going to buy when I win the lottery. I’m not sure if it’s Matt and Summers taste but keep this type of property coming because they are so interesting to watch ❤️
The round contraption in the cottage was used to grind wheat into flour. It's part of a flour mill.
it's actually an apple mill, for crushing the fruit as the first stage of making cider.
This 1 first cottage was originally mill house. It was where they ground wheat to flour.
This is a really beautiful place, very nice,.
Absolutely love this. My dream property.
Absolutely gorgeous
Loved the exploration but at the end 😂. Great video 👍🏼
The grinding mill in the small out-house, looks as though it would have been hand rotated manually to crush the crops.
Another stunning property to save up for.
Thank you.
That's how they raised income to maintain the house and lands. By farming and rents.
This is my favourite tour to date. Should I win the lottery this would be for me. Even liked the stair lift as the long Covid has done me in.
I hat it when adverts interrupt. that dining rood is super
Could you please try to view houses in Northwood, Moor Park? 🤩 Maybe around 1-2million. Thanks
beautiful property & views
Stunning, definitely worth it.
lovely property guys. Definite bargain for the price. That round thing might be used to make flour during older times. it turns around as Summer said and grinds the flour.
It's an apple mill, for crushing apples to make cider. Grain mills usually have horizontal stones for finer grinding.
Really enjoy your videos guys, as your attention to detail is second to none. Just a thought...It would have been nice to have seen the views from the balconies too, but excellent...Great Chanel-:)
Stunning
Absolutely love this one!!!! xx
Wow this manor is everything 😍😍....sigh
The peacefulness would be immaculate
Beautiful!
Love the house layout and the gardens. I would just make the house more modern inside and change some of the fittings. I guess the main building is not a listed building so that would be possible .. the cottage would be great little AirBNB .
listed? It's practically brand new and of no historical or architectural importance whatsoever.
It was built in 2005.
This place oozes Class!❤
Beautiful home!
A grist mill in the lounge of the cottage. For grinding grain to flour.
Amazing love it so much, would love to know what the owners yearly running costs are.
Amazing house!!
The wheat grinder : “maybe for milk or wool” 😳🤣 aww bless you 😉
Very classical and elegant manor.
Wow !! The house is beautiful !! I buy it !!
Not a fan of botanical garden type manors but this is beautiful along with the location of the property. I don't think I could sell this if I owned it.
I think that wheel squashed fruit so maybe for cider making (cider press )
Its a Mill stone for grinding corn, or wheat , a number of things to make flour ect ......
Pretty sure that's a cider press not a grindstone. A cider mill would be absolutely expected in that part of the UK traditionally.
Great to see you back guys doing what you do best 😃. Magnificent property clap 👏
