"A Grade II listed, early 19th century, historic six bedroom house on three floors set in approaching an acre of formal enclosed gardens, with driveway parking and a double garage, situated within reach of amenities in a noted Buckinghamshire village. From the exterior, Haddenham Hall has the characteristics of a Regency Villa, the harmonious positioning of sash windows, a continuous and projecting hipped slate roof, and balconies with decorated fretwork, but it is more unusual. Built a little later in c. 1835 during the short reign of William IV, it was commissioned by one of Britain s most influential painters JMW Turner. The painter s grasp of perspective and the interplay of light are discernible in the layout of the house, where internal vistas are created along halls and landings, articulated with round or elliptical arches, and the rooms are well lit by sash or canted bay windows overlooking the surrounding gardens. The current owners who have lived in this historic house for over four decades have restored or rebuilt areas of the building, fastidiously retaining original 19th century features and adding further accommodation to create a flexible and enjoyable family home in keeping with contemporary lifestyle."
