Birch Grove, Country house in Horsted Keynes, England.

The Grade II listed building features Queen Anne Revival architecture with ornate brickwork, decorative gables, and large windows throughout its structure.

Built in 1926, Birch Grove served as the residence of British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan until 1986, hosting numerous international leaders during his tenure.

The property represents a significant example of early 20th-century English architecture, combining traditional Queen Anne elements with a mansard roof design.

The house remains privately owned, requiring special permissions for modifications due to its Grade II listed status under English heritage protection laws.

International figures such as Charles De Gaulle, Dwight D. Eisenhower, and John F. Kennedy conducted diplomatic meetings within these walls during the Cold War.
