The 6,000sq ft apartment has a private terrace and garden, able to cater for a wedding reception of 150 people, and also has access to five acres of communal grounds.
Ian Camplin, of estate agents Savills, said: ‘George III had his coronation banquet in the building. We can’t say for sure it happened in this apartment but given this is the ground floor and takes up a fairly large part of the ground floor it is probably likely.
‘It [the apartment] has big high ceilings. The proportions of the rooms and the heights of the windows make it quite dramatic.
‘It also has a really cool cellar with a mirror wall behind the television. The same with the kitchen – you’ve got that contemporary twist alongside character of those principle rooms in an older building.

‘It’s something you can show off to your friends about. The views out to the gardens and the communal areas are really quite special.
‘It’s definitely a lifestyle move, you’re in a semi-rural location but it’s still accessible to London.
‘It’s big enough to take a family but I suspect it will go to a couple coming from a fairly grand house who want to relocate that in a more country setting, that they can also lock up and leave.

‘A lot of the land around is owned by the Duke of Northumberland, including the church.’
