Harford Manor

Forest Green Road, Holyport, Berkshire

Film by Fine & Country · open at publisher ↗

Independent reading

A £35m, 20,275 sq ft contemporary country estate on 40 acres, with six principal suites, staff and groom accommodation, a 12-metre indoor pool, ten stables, indoor arena, tennis court, helipad and garaging for eight cars.

Harford Manor clears Aveno's benchmark by an exceptional margin: it rejects the default neo-classical mega-house formula in favour of a purpose-built contemporary estate whose gallery, two kitchens, wellness wing, equestrian infrastructure and landscape operate as one commission. The £1,726/sq ft headline uses the current 20,275 sq ft market field, but the owner's 24,000 sq ft statement and earlier 22,000–23,000 sq ft records expose a major component-boundary conflict. At this price, a signed area schedule, title-and-planning bridge, furnishing inventory and measured estate-operating history are mandatory before the guide can be tested.

Price and area18/20

£1,726/sq ft from current guide and the current Harding Green/OnTheMarket 20,275 sq ft structured field; the estate's own site states 24,000 sq ft and earlier marketing stated 22,000–23,000 sq ft, so the component boundary is unresolved.

Identity confidence99%

Harford Manor, Forest Green Road, Holyport, Maidenhead
Harding Green's live original instruction and current OnTheMarket and Rightmove distributions identify a £35m freehold country house on Forest Green Road, Holyport, with nine bedrooms, ten bathrooms, 20,275 sq ft, 40 acres, EPC B and Band H. The estate's own site names Harford Manor and the exact-property Fine & Country film matches the same design, pool, equestrian facilities, eight-car garaging and Windsor setting. Planning, construction and design-team sources independently join Harford Manor to Quada's replacement-estate project at Holyport. The name, road, postcode, scale, accommodation, amenities and film establish a decisive match; the title number and UPRN remain buyer-side.

Property memory

The home’s price story.

Direct transaction memory is not yet matched.

This history does not prove fair value. It tells the buyer exactly how much of the current price must be explained by market growth, improvements, specification and scarcity.

What is withheld.

Land Registry can establish sale history; EPC can reveal rated floor area and energy assumptions; Planning Data can surface constraints by UPRN or coordinate. A link alone is never counted as intelligence.

Published / verified

  1. Harding Green currently offers Harford Manor at a £35m guide as a freehold country house with nine bedrooms, ten bathrooms, 20,275 sq ft, EPC B and Council Tax Band H.
  2. The current listing records 40 acres, six principal bedroom suites, three staff bedrooms, groom accommodation, four principal reception rooms, two kitchens, an entertainment room, library, gallery, spa and sauna.
  3. A separate leisure building contains a 12-metre indoor pool, Jacuzzi, gym and roof terrace; the wider estate includes an all-weather tennis court, helicopter landing area, ten stables, tack room and indoor arena.
  4. Ground-source heating and cooling, whole-house heat recovery, smart-home infrastructure and fibre connectivity are attributed by the current instruction.
  5. Mansion Global reported that Harding Green brought the property to market in July 2026 and independently corroborated the £35m guide, contemporary design, 20,000-plus sq ft scale and leisure/equestrian programme.
  6. Ethos Construction dates completion to 2017 after a three-year build, while later editorial records use 2018; the signed completion and warranty archive must settle the chronology.
  7. The current 20,275 sq ft field conflicts with the estate website's 24,000 sq ft statement and earlier 22,000–23,000 sq ft marketing. No blended floor-area claim is made.

Investigate next

  1. Obtain the official freehold title register and plan joined to the UPRN, confirming the 40-acre boundary, one-kilometre drive, bridleway access, paddocks, woodland, helipad use, water, drainage, services, covenants and every equestrian or staff-occupation obligation.
  2. Retrieve the full replacement-dwelling and equestrian planning history, appeal decision, condition discharges, Building Control completion, structural and fire strategies, ground-source design, pool and arena approvals, professional appointments and warranties.
  3. Commission a signed RICS component measurement reconciling 20,275, 22,000, 23,000 and 24,000 sq ft and separating principal accommodation, staff/groom units, leisure building, garaging, stables, arena, plant, terraces and reduced-headroom space.
  4. Obtain the fully furnished inventory and three years of energy, water, staffing, security, insurance, pool, ground-source, smart-home, grounds, woodland, equestrian and building-maintenance records, then commission specialist envelope, roof, glazing, pool, arena, drainage and environmental surveys.
