Set around the village of Conington, near Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, the Conington Estate presents a rare opportunity to purchase a traditional Estate with its own airfield.
For sale through Fisher German LLP, Market Harborough at a guide in excess of £11 Million for the whole.
The Estate has belonged to the Heathcote family since 1774 and consists of the main house and parkland, six highly productive let arable farms and farmhouses, 18 separate residential properties – predominantly let, a commercially operated let airfield and extensive woodland with good sporting potential comprising in total approximately 2,210 acres.
Conington House sits within the former grounds of Conington Castle which was demolished by the late John Heathcote - an impressive and secluded location set in approximately 50 acres of mature gardens and parkland. The house provides three spacious reception rooms, a superb kitchen, five bedrooms, three with en suites and two with dressing rooms, a second floor studio and large double garage.
Close by is Peterborough Airport – part of the Conington Estate - a let, commercially operated airfield with hard runway and storage hangars, the former home of the USAAF 457th bomb group during World War II who flew the ‘Flying Fortress’ from Conington.
The Estate benefits from excellent communication links with access to the A1(M). The City of Peterborough is approximately nine miles to the north which provides a wide range of facilities and services as well as regular train services to London Kings Cross in only 55 minutes.
The Conington Estate has enjoyed excellent shooting over the years, originally as a wild bird shoot and more recently as a released bird shoot, comprising a mixed bag of partridge and pheasant.
John Palmer of the agents, Fisher German LLP, states that: “The Conington Estate presents an extremely rare opportunity to purchase a large, mixed traditional let Estate with exceptional communication links, as well as access to a private airfield, all within a ring fence.”
