Entire country village for sale at £25m



An entire English village has gone on sale, complete with 21 cottages, a cricket club and even a manor house.

Linkenholt in Hampshire - just 75 miles from Central London - is up for sale with a price tag of a cool 25 million pounds.

Any would-be owner will get the entire village, which also has a local shop and the all important renowned partridge shoot, except for he 12th century St Peter’s Church.

Also it is worth noting that the village does not have it's own pub, which for me would be a prerequisite of living in a quiet country village, let alone buying one.
A spokesman for estate agents Jackson-Stops and Staff said Linkenholt is "an exceptional traditional residential and agricultural estate."

He added that the sale - by owners Herbert and Peter Blagrave Charitable Trust - also includes approximately 1,439 acres arable land, 103 acres grassland and 425 acres woodland.

The trust say the village has a close-knit community of around 40 tenants who must be able to remain in their homes after the sale.
