The sale of Ibthorpe House – home to her friends the Lloyds and where Jane Austen visited on a number of occasions.

A perfectly proportioned early Georgian Grade II* listed country house, with Carolean origins, set within beautiful garden and grounds. The property is well placed for good road and rail access as well as highly regarded schooling

Ibthorpe House, is a charming and beautiful Grade ll * listed early Georgian country house with Carolean origins and was originally owned by Corpus Christi College, Oxford. This is the first time Ibthorpe has been formally placed on the open market.

It is here that Jane Austen attended the wedding of her brother to Mary Lloyd and it is believed she based Longbourn, the Bennett’s house in Pride and Prejudice, on Ibthorpe.

  1. Beautiful Georgian house. I've been reading the Elizabeth Jenkins biography of Jane Austen and she is very good on the elegance of Georgian buildings.
