Hunsdon House, Grade I listed English country house in Hunsdon, England.

The red brick mansion features symmetrical architecture with stone details, large windows, and traditional English landscaped gardens surrounding the property.

Built in 1447 by Sir William Oldhall, the house later became a palatial residence for Henry VIII and served as the main dwelling for Princess Mary before her coronation.

The mansion exemplifies the Tudor architectural style, reflecting the period's building techniques through its exposed 15th-century brick construction and subsequent modifications.

While the house remains in private ownership, external views of the structure are accessible from public footpaths in the surrounding Hertfordshire countryside.

The current building maintains less than 25 percent of its original Tudor dimensions, following multiple transformations that drastically reduced its size over centuries.
