A 12-bedroom mansion set within 43 acres of parkland has been put on the market for a staggering £45 million.

Denham Place, located in Denham, is a Grade I listed property that dates back to 1688.

The estate, which is described as having 'spectacular interiors in the style of a palace,' has undergone an extensive eight-year restoration project.

It is now fully refurbished, modernised, and furnished, making it, according to the estate agent, 'the finest stately home within 30 minutes of central London'.

The restoration project was led by award-winning architect Alexander Kravetz, in collaboration with English Heritage and The Georgian Group, to ensure historical accuracy.

A 'world-class' transformation is the result, and the Rightmove listing claims that 'short of acquiring one of the Crown Estate Royal Palaces, there is nothing of this grandeur or provenance so close to central London'.

The mansion itself is 28,525 square feet and built in the classic William and Mary architectural style.

It has 14 reception rooms, 12 bathrooms, and a lift to all floors.

There is underfloor heating throughout, air conditioning, and embedded audio-visual technology.

The main rooms have ceiling heights of more than 16 feet, tall sash windows, and ornate plasterwork.

Meanwhile, the estate also includes a Grade II listed coach house, estate cottages, ancillary buildings, and substantial garaging for vehicles, totalling an additional 11,199 square feet.

The grounds of Denham Place are just as impressive as the mansion itself and include landscaped gardens, Grade II listed parkland and woodland, a formal sunken garden, a walled garden, a meadow, an orchard, and a lake.

It also borders the 18-hole Buckinghamshire Golf Club championship course.

The parkland was designed by Lancelot 'Capability' Brown, and has been restored and conserved by renowned landscape architect Lord Kenilworth.

Denham Place has been home to several notable former residents, including the Bonaparte Imperial family, American banker JP Morgan, politician and movie financier Lord Robert Vansittart, and James Bond film franchise co-producer Harry Saltzman.

The estate is described as a 'secluded retreat,' yet is only 17 miles from Mayfair and 20 miles from The City, with journeys by car reaching central London in 30 minutes.

Eton, Sandhurst, and Windsor are a short drive away.

The estate is also a few minutes' drive from Denham Aerodrome for use as a helicopter base or private aviation services, with airport RAF Northolt six miles away, and international hub Heathrow Airport just 15 minutes' drive.

Denham Place is offered for sale to include all the contents.
