The central section of Digswell House was built for Earl Cowper in the early 1800s and has an interesting history: Gentleman's country home, WW1 officers' hospital, conference centre, boarding school, artists' retreat and now, since about 1990 when the two wings were built, individual homes. (See ). In the late 1980s two wings were added and the property split into 13 freehold houses.

This house and its garage comprise a single freehold. The grounds surrounding the whole of Digswell House are owned by Digswell House Management Limited (dhml). As an owner of a house, the purchasor will receive one of the 13 shares in dhml -- the other 12 all owned by the other 12 house owners.

There is a monthly maintenance fee (which is used predominantly for garden maintenance) of £120 per house. All house owners/residents are eligible to become directors of dhml if they wish...
