Kennedy and Ford's former estate hits the market

A gorgeous mid-18th century mansion previously owned by Henry Ford II has hit the market for £18.75 million ($33 million).

Henry Ford II, the grandson of the founder of the Ford Motor Company, is one of the few famous people who have lived in the stunning two-storey estate known as Turville Grange.

He purchased the home from former US President John F Kennedy’s sister-in-law, Princess Lee Radziwill in 1974.

Among those who have lived in the beautiful home are President Kennedy and his wife Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis - Radziwill’s sister, Sir Evelyn de Rothschild and Michael Caine

The five-bedroom home located just an hour away from London has been constantly renovated over the years to help create an “ideal family home”. 

Boasting a lavish lifestyle, the estate has four reception rooms, a beautiful marble kitchen, luxurious bedrooms, and offices to work in.

To get to the backyard is one walks under a covered walkway to the courtyard where there is a one bedroom apartment perfect for staff or guests with its own kitchen and bathroom. 

Outside also includes a swimming pool for a cheeky dip during the warmer weather, a spa, as well as a gym.
