Country Houses

English country house — an enduring aspiration with global appeal.

Country house sales at the premium end of the market require specialist PR and marketing that reaches an audience which is local in character but increasingly international in composition — requiring careful calibration of both.

The English country house represents one of the most enduring aspirations in international property — and the buyers who pursue this dream are increasingly as likely to be based in New York or Dubai as in London or the Home Counties. We position country houses for the full breadth of their buyer audience.

Country house marketing must serve two distinct audiences simultaneously: the domestic buyer who understands the cultural context of the English country house and is evaluating the specific property against comparable regional alternatives, and the international buyer who is purchasing into an aspiration that has been shaped by Downton Abbey, Country Life and a specific vision of English country living.

Media strategy for country houses typically combines premium domestic lifestyle and property coverage — Country Life, The Field, The Telegraph property section — with targeted international exposure in publications reaching US, Middle Eastern and Asian buyers who have demonstrated interest in English country property. The proportion of investment allocated to each channel should reflect the actual buyer profile achieved in comparable recent sales in the relevant price range and geography.
