Take a look inside this £3.95 million Markyate house - with a medieval hall, treehouse and indoor pool
Fancy holding your own medieval banquets or getting away from it all in a treehouse?
This six-bedroom home in Markyate could be for you - if you have a spare £3,950,000.
The house has six bathrooms, a pool, a hot tub, two dressing rooms, and a medieval-style event hall. The great hall looks like somewhere a king would dine in the 1300s.
Looking for somewhere to host a summer party? Take a dip in your own indoor heated pool, then plunge into the hot tub and the sauna. Once you’ve used your changing room, walk through French doors leading out to the gardens.
Not only is there a huge house on the land, but there also are garages, stables and paddocks across the 34 acres. If you are a horse lover, this house is ideal for you – as you can train and keep them on the property. Children can play hide and seek for hours in the woodland or climb up to the secluded treehouse.
The Old Hall on Gills Hill is currently on the market with Savills Harpenden, and the full listing can be viewed on Rightmove.
