The Round House
Architectural splendour in a coveted location make this elegant property an attractive proposition.


A magnificent country house thought to date back in part to the 1600s will be ideal for a commuter with creature comforts in mind. The Round House is situated in the pretty village of Bayford, approximately five miles from Hertford from where you can catch the Moorgate train and arrive in London in less than 45 minutes.
Two sets of timber gates give access to a sweeping gravelled driveway with room for several cars. The house benefits from uninterrupted views over its own paddocks and woodland and out across a wooded skyline. Carefully maintained formal gardens, an all weather tennis court and a beautiful conservatory make the garden at The Round House a delightful place to spend time.
The accommodation comprises five reception rooms, four bedrooms including a substantial dining room overlooked by a galleried landing, four bathrooms and a Lodge with further kitchen, living room, two bedrooms and bathroom.

Exquisite houses, the beauty of Nature, and how to get the most from your life, straight to your inbox.
Country Life is unlike any other magazine: the only glossy weekly on the newsstand and the only magazine that has been guest-edited by His Majesty The King not once, but twice. It is a celebration of modern rural life and all its diverse joys and pleasures — that was first published in Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee year. Our eclectic mixture of witty and informative content — from the most up-to-date property news and commentary and a coveted glimpse inside some of the UK's best houses and gardens, to gardening, the arts and interior design, written by experts in their field — still cannot be found in print or online, anywhere else.
