A £7.9 million Hertfordshire mansion that isn’t quite what it seems
Hadley Lodge at Hadley Common in Hertfordshire is not quite what it seems. Hidden behind a coach house complete with clock tower is not a classic 18th century house but instead a modern, Lutyens-style house that was built in the early 1990s.
Delisted in 1988 after an earlier 18th century on the house burnt down in 1981, Hadley Lodge has the look of a much earlier house but has been designed with modern living in mind. Standing in some 7 acres, the main house is 7,168 square foot in size and includes 5 reception rooms along a family kitchen to the ground floor and 7 bedroom suites spread over the first and second floors.

What a lovely house. I think it looks just divine.
and I am sure, Fiona, the ‘decor’ is quite to your taste….
In my view, the rear elevation is spoiled by the “garden room” and fenestration above it.
Naff decor
I do like this one very much. Good for a modern one.
