Market Context
Havilland Hall's 1922 sale to Count Lothair Blücher von Wahlstatt, a descendant of the Prussian field marshal who fought at Waterloo, marks an earlier chapter in the estate's history of prominent owners. The current £65m listing continues that pattern of high-value transfers among Channel Island estates.
Prospective buyers can access the listing through Savills, the agency handling the sale of the estate. The marketing material describes the property's accommodation and grounds for interested parties.
The takeaway
A property of this scale and history attracts a narrow but international buyer pool, so listings of this kind are typically handled through specialist agents. Buyers considering similar estates should review the full accommodation and ancillary buildings before comparing asking prices.
