Approached across a stone bridge that spans its medieval moat, Old Surrey Hall is one of Surrey’s most extraordinary country houses. Originally dating from the 15th century and comprehensively restored and enlarged by renowned architects George Crowley and Joseph Emberton in 1937, this Grade I-listed estate extends to more than 18,000 sq ft, combining centuries of architectural history with the comforts of modern family living.
At the heart of the house lies the spectacular Great Hall, a soaring triple-height space framed by magnificent timber arches and oak panelling. Rich in character and scale, it serves as the centrepiece of a home that balances grand entertaining rooms with intimate family spaces.
Throughout the house, original architectural details sit alongside carefully considered interventions commissioned by the current owner, who reunited the previously divided property and engaged architect Anthony Hackett and interior designer Kelly Hoppen to restore it as a single residence.
Arranged around a central courtyard, the accommodation includes a series of elegant reception rooms, a formal dining room, a substantial family kitchen, ancillary service areas and a striking stone-floored ballroom currently used as an art studio. The principal bedroom suite enjoys far-reaching views across the gardens and croquet lawn and features a dressing room and generous bathroom. In total, the house offers 14 bedrooms and numerous bathrooms arranged across two wings, making it exceptionally well suited to large families, multigenerational living or entertaining on a significant scale.
Beyond the main house, a separate three-bedroom residence provides flexible guest or staff accommodation. Formerly squash courts, it has been transformed into a charming standalone home with vaulted ceilings and a basement games room. Additional barns and outbuildings contribute a further 2,100 sq ft of ancillary space, including two remarkable Normandy barns that were dismantled in France and painstakingly rebuilt on the estate.
The grounds are as impressive as the house itself. Extending to approximately 34 acres, they encompass formal gardens, a croquet lawn, an orchard, kitchen gardens, a lake, a heated swimming pool with pool house, a tennis court and extensive parkland. Mature trees frame long views across the surrounding countryside, while the moat and white garden lend a rare sense of romance and seclusion.
Occupying an exceptional position on the Surrey and Sussex border, Old Surrey Hall is surrounded by some of the South East's most beautiful countryside. The estate lies within easy reach of the High Weald National Landscape and Ashdown Forest, with miles of walking, riding and cycling routes weaving through ancient woodland and rolling farmland. Nearby East Grinstead provides a comprehensive range of amenities, while Lingfield's racecourse, championship golf courses and a number of highly regarded schools are all within easy reach.

Set at the end of a sweeping drive through historic parkland, a rare and captivating country estate, one that seamlessly blends architectural grandeur, cutting edge modern comfort and an extraordinary sense of heritage. Immaculately refurbished to the highest standard, the house has been thoughtfully restored for contemporary family living while celebrating the craftsmanship and character of its period origins.From the moment you step inside, the scale and elegance are unmistakable. The stately entrance and inner halls form the heart of the home, rising dramatically to a double-height gallery above. Limestone floors, intricate cornicing and domed ceilings create a sense of occasion, while original parquet flooring and open fireplaces add warmth and authenticity. Technology has been discreetly integrated, with underfloor heating to the ground floor and first-floor bathrooms, alongside Sonos audio and a Crestron home management system controlling lighting, climate, curtains and entertainment at the touch of a tablet or smartphone.The house occupies an elevated position on Holwood Hill, commanding far reaching southerly views across rolling countryside. Two areas of woodland frame the property, creating a natural avenue and a picturesque vista.Ground Floor: - The principal reception rooms flow beautifully from the central halls, each designed to make the most of the breathtaking southerly views across the estate. The music hall is a particular highlight, with its elegant proportions and panoramic outlook over rolling parkland. The drawing room, dining room, games room and kitchen/breakfast room all enjoy generous sash windows and French doors, bathing the interiors in natural light and creating a wonderful connection to the grounds beyond. At the centre of family life sits the magnificent Clive Christian kitchen. With a dramatic double-height ceiling and expansive roof lights, it is both striking and supremely practical. A library mezzanine overlooks part of the breakfast area, creating a relaxed yet refined space for reading or quiet work. From here, the house opens effortlessly into the family room, which in turn leads directly into the newly refurbished swimming pool complex and annexe, perfect for year-round entertaining. Beneath the house, the substantial cellar offers yet more lifestyle flexibility. A large central entertaining space, referred to as the Shisha Lounge, is complemented by two gyms and newly installed communications, boiler and heating systems as well as a generous laundry room. The ground floor is completed by a private study, Champagne bar/Snooker room, four car garage, cloakroom, powder room and a fully insulated cinema room with surround sound for evenings at home.First Floor - A grand sweeping staircase leads to the first-floor accommodation, where space and privacy have been beautifully balanced. The principal suite forms a luxurious private retreat, complete with two dressing rooms, an elegant en suite bathroom and its own sitting room, all overlooking the parkland and valley beyond. Two further bedrooms in this wing interconnect and share a bathroom, ideal for children or guests. The pillared central gallery looks down over the inner hall and gives access to a further bedroom suite, a nursery and a dedicated guest wing with two additional bedroom suites. A separate landing connects back to the library mezzanine and down to the kitchen below. The leisure facilities at Holwood are exceptional. The swimming pool complex has been refurbished to a luxury spa-level specification, with a steam room, sauna, two rainforest showers, pool table and a wet lounge. French doors open onto timber decking, making it an idyllic setting for summer gatherings, barbecues and poolside entertaining. A striking glass staircase rises to the first-floor guest accommodation, which includes a generous games room or gym, two further guest bedrooms and a shower room. Separate stairs lead to a fully self-contained housekeeper's apartment with two bedrooms, a bathroom, kitchen and living room, ideal for staff or independent living.Gardens And Grounds - The setting of Holwood House is truly extraordinary. The approach winds gently through landscaped parkland originally sculpted by Decimus Burton, immediately instilling a sense of arrival and privacy. The house occupies an elevated position on Holwood Hill, commanding far-reaching southerly views across rolling countryside. Two areas of woodland frame the property, creating a natural avenue and a picturesque vista visible from many of the principal rooms and bedrooms. To the rear, the estate includes a secondary drive, tennis court, walled garden and an elegant garden pavilion to the west. To the east, a newly constructed machinery store, also suitable as a helicopter hangar, adds a discreet yet highly practical modern touch.History - Few houses can claim a history as rich or as influential as Holwood, and fewer still combine such pedigree with effortless modern living. The site itself is recorded as an Iron Age fort, Caesar's Camp, and has long been recognised for its strategic and scenic importance. In the late 18th century, Holwood became the cherished retreat of William Pitt the Younger, Britain's youngest ever Prime Minister, who commissioned Sir John Soane to remodel the house and transform the surrounding landscape. It was here, beneath a great oak tree in 1787, that Pitt famously encouraged William Wilberforce to begin the parliamentary campaign to abolish the slave trade. The house was later rebuilt in its current classical Georgian form by the celebrated architect Decimus Burton in 1827. Over the centuries, Holwood has welcomed an extraordinary roll call of visitors and residents, including Charles Darwin, who conducted experiments in the grounds, and Winston Churchill, who dined here regularly during the Second World War. Today, the house and grounds are Grade I listed, reflecting their exceptional historical significance.Location And Lifestyle - Holwood House enjoys an elevated, private position just east of the charming village of Keston, which offers a village hall, pub and post office. More extensive shopping can be found in Bromley, with Sevenoaks under 14 miles away. The area is renowned for its excellent schooling, with a wide selection of highly regarded independent and state schools within easy reach. Fast rail services from Orpington and Bromley South provide swift access into central London, while the M25 is readily accessible. Golfers are well served by nearby courses including Chelsfield Lakes, West Kent and Lullingstone Park. Biggin Hill Airport is just 1.7 miles away, with Gatwick and London City also within comfortable reach. Holwood House is not simply a home; it is a private estate of rare beauty and historical importance, offering a lifestyle defined by space, privacy, elegance and connection to both countryside and city.Planning Permission - Permission granted for 10 car garage and bowling alley - contact us for more details.

House with garden and terrace Oxted (United Kingdom)

What the seller says: My home has been a haven for me for almost 25 years, witnessing the growth of my family, spanning the lifetimes of my grandchildren, who are all now young adults. Featuring in the '25 Beautiful Homes' magazine and winning the 'Futuristic' award for Wates, the house is truly unique. With high ceilings and big open spaces, the house has been a perfect place for my large family and friends to get together to celebrate numerous occasions over the years, from children's birthdays and milestone events to family Christmas' and Easter Egg hunts. There have been so many happy occasions celebrated here. The capacity for entertainment has been one of the many things we as a family have enjoyed and still do. The atrium never fails to have that wow factor, and even after all this time here, I still delight in watching the sunsets and sunrises, which are quite spectacular from different rooms in the house. Though perfect for entertaining with the open plan light airy spaces, it still possesses a wonderfully warm, homely feel. Whether crowded around the dining table for dinner or sitting alone reading a book in front of the fire, there is a peaceful tranquillity from the hustle and bustle of the outside world. Outside, the landscaped gardens also provide a perfect space for family life and entertaining, with plenty of room for the children to run around and explore, whilst also allowing for more intimate interactions and alone time, especially on those warm summer nights. Conveniently located for Limpsfield Village, Oxted town centre, and Old Oxted, all rich in history, you're never far away from the excellent local amenities, and wonderful restaurants the town is gaining quite a reputation for, but far enough and sheltered in a road which affords a great deal of privacy and quiet, it is difficult for me to leave! It is true Brassey Hill is somewhere that once you are here, it's rare you find someone moves out and therefore the houses are coveted and rarely for sale. To my knowledge, just 4 houses in the last 10 years have been sold, which does demonstrate the popularity of Brassey Hill. Together with their historical and cultural significance, the nearby Oxted, Limpsfield Village and Old Oxted offer a vibrant entertainment scene, leisure activities and everyday conveniences. Described as the Foodie Capital of Surrey and a town alive with entertainment, Oxted doesn't disappoint and caters for all comers. Tucked away on a small, exclusive development, this unique family home offers a rare combination of architectural flair and practical family living. Positioned perfectly for the modern commuter who refuses to compromise on tranquillity, this home is just a short, level walk to Oxted's town centre and mainline station, yet sits on the edge of rolling Surrey countryside and ancient woodland. The property greets you with an elegant frontage and a sweeping horseshoe driveway. On entering, you are met by a breathtaking open-plan reception hall. The heart of the home is an impressive enclosed glass atrium, which floods the ground floor with natural light and creates a sense of immense volume and through-flow perfect for hosting family and friends. Designed for the modern professional, the ground floor boasts a large, dedicated office at the front. Across the hall, a formal dining room offers views of the manicured front gardens. For more relaxed evenings, the dual-aspect formal lounge features a traditional open fireplace, offering a cosy retreat that still feels connected to the wider home. The kitchen is a chef's delight, featuring a central island and high-end cabinetry. It flows effortlessly into the dining atrium and lounge, with multiple sets of doors opening onto the rear terrace. The ground floor is completed by a practical utility room and a separate shower room; ideal for cleaning up after a muddy woodland walk. The feature, architectural staircase, leads to a balcony mezzanine overlooking the atrium. On the first floor, the principal suite is a true sanctuary, featuring an extensive bedroom area, a dedicated dressing room with bespoke storage (originally the fifth bedroom) and a luxury ensuite. The private balcony is a peaceful spot for morning coffee with views toward the woodland beyond. Three further generous bedrooms, including a second large suite also benefitting from views, are finished with meticulous attention to detail and climate control for year-round comfort. The rear garden is an extension of the living space. A large alfresco dining area and patio provide the perfect backdrop for summer entertaining, overlooking a level lawn bordered by mature shrubs and trees for total privacy. The original garage has been thoughtfully converted into a second professional office or studio, providing a quiet destination workspace away from the main house. Widely regarded as Surrey's premier destination for those seeking the best of both worlds, Oxted perfectly balances the charm of its Tudor-style high street with high-end modern amenities. It is a highly sought-after commuter town that boasts a selection of fabulous restaurants, boutique shopping and the Everyman Cinema. For families, the location is unbeatable, with top-tier schools including the prestigious Hazelwood School (just around the corner) and Oxted Secondary.
