A HISTORIC Worcestershire estate with an indoor pool, a maze and space to land helicopters is now on the market.
Hillhampton House, once part of the Witley Court Estate and the ruined palace of Witley Court, has a guide price of £5.95 million and is being represented by Savills Telford.
The sale comprises the seven-bedroom principal home, four-bedroom ancillary accommodation (The Coach House) and a two-bedroom property (The Lodge), standing in approximately 19.29 acres of formal gardens, parkland and paddocks.

Paul Jarvis, the owner of Hillhampton House, said: “The house and grounds have provided a wonderful setting for my family and me, but now that it is in a position to be enjoyed without the worry of extensive works required, we feel that the time is right to pass the baton on to the next custodians of one of Worcestershire’s finest country homes.
"There is an awful lot to love about the house – from waking up to look out across the grounds from the master bedroom window to a relaxing swim in the heated pool as the morning sunshine floods the room.”
The main house is made of red sandstone and is approached down a long gravel drive.
It includes three principal reception rooms, an atmospheric dining room and an open-plan living, kitchen and breakfast room.
There is an office at one end of the house and the gym leads on to the indoor pool.
The gardens, maze, tennis court and surrounding countryside are also huge assets to this property.
A large area of level lawn below the terrace has been used as a landing place for helicopters and has also housed a large marquee for charity functions, understood to easily accommodate around 450 guests.

The Lodge, located at the head of the drive, is made up of two bedrooms, with two reception rooms and a kitchen.
The Coach House, at the rear of the main house, can be accessed by a rear drive and has recently been converted to provide a kitchen, sitting room, dining room, TV room, and multiple bedrooms and bathrooms.
