Set amidst gardens and grounds extending to approximately 6.3 acres, White Cloud House is an imposing period residence situated in a highly convenient edge-of-town location. This magnificent Victorian home has grand architectural proportions throughout, a rich heritage, and a number of versatile outbuildings, including a separate cottage.

Originally constructed as the 'Home Farmhouse' on the Rothschild Estate, White Cloud House has enjoyed a storied past. Among its notable residents are Walter Rothschild, founder of the Natural History Museum in Tring, and the legendary British racing driver Sir Stirling Moss, for whom it served as a childhood home.

You enter the property via a long, private driveway off Park Road, leading to a gated entrance and ample driveway parking. Upon entry, the home reveals a welcoming boot room that leads to a striking entrance hall adorned with a grand fireplace, exquisite panelling, and a feature staircase rising to an elegant galleried landing above.

The house offers extensive and adaptable reception areas that can be tailored to a range of modern living requirements. The kitchen is a bright, contemporary space, enjoying garden views, while the drawing room, dining room, and garden room each have a charming view across the manicured rear gardens. The rooms are notably well-proportioned and showcase the high ceilings characteristic of the era.

Currently arranged with seven bedrooms on the first floor—two of which enjoy en-suite facilities—alongside a family bathroom, the home provides substantial bedroom space too. The layout of the main house is currently divided into two sections but can be readily reinstated as a single, flowing residence. Throughout, the property retains a wealth of original period features, offering a rare opportunity for an incoming owner to personalise a wonderful country house.

Complementing the main house is North Cottage, a self-contained and versatile dwelling. Within the courtyard area are two additional outbuildings, one currently serving as an office complete with a kitchen and cloakroom facilities. Notably, the courtyard area historically held planning consent for the development of three dwellings—a permission that has since lapsed. The courtyard area offers potential for redevelopment subject to obtaining the necessary and relevant consents.

White Cloud House represents a truly unique offering—blending historical provenance, architectural elegance, and huge potential in a sought-after setting.

The sellers are the holders of the freehold and leasehold titles respectively. Potential purchasers should make their own enquiries and take appropriate advice in respect of title.

Gardens & Grounds:
White Cloud House sits in gardens and grounds of approximately 6.3 acres, which have been split into a more immediate garden section complete with a heated outdoor swimming pool and separate paddocks beyond. There is potential for an incoming purchaser to purchase additional land (land either side of the driveway) by separate negotiation.

White Cloud House enjoys a highly convenient edge of town position in the historic market town of Tring in Hertfordshire. From the house, the high street is easily accessible, as well as a closer parade of commercial establishments on Western Road. Tring is a popular town with a vibrant high street and is home to a wide range of shops, cafes, pubs, and restaurants with a mix of independent businesses and larger chains such as M&S Simply Food and Tesco. The local and wider area is home to an extensive range of schooling, both state and independent – including Tring Park School for the Performing Arts. Nearby you will find an abundance of countryside and green spaces to explore and enjoy, including Tring Park, a mixed park and woodland area.
