Introduction Kingshaugh ( pronounced Kings-hah ) is an individual and unique property with known history dating back to Roman times in the 1st to 3rd Century AD, between 1086 and 1604 the property was owned by the Kings and Queens of England; and King John was known to reside at Kingshaugh on a regular basis. Since 1604 there have only been six owners to the present day.

Land The land, which extends to 4.85 acres, is a scheduled ancient monument being the site of a mediaeval castle (motte) with moat earthworks surrounding, in what is now a delightful grassed and wooded area with a free flowing stream around the northern boundary.

Additional Information In the 17th Century the main house was built on the site of a former 13th Century chapel and is now a Grade II listed building. More recently the roof and chimney stacks have been renewed and this historic site and building is now ready to be brought into the 21st Century, to enable the wealth of period features and character of the property to combine with the comforts of modern living. The house itself offers in excess of 4,000 square feet of living space over three stories. Kingshaugh is no ordinary property. It is unique in so may ways. It offers scope and potential to an enthusiast and must surely be one of the most historic sites and distinctive homes to be offered for sale in Nottinghamshire.
