luxury real estate for rent London, United Kingdom (page 6)

This Grade II-listed Georgian house lies on Richmond Hill and extends to approximately 10,020 sq ft across five floors. The beautiful house pairs historic proportions with interiors that have been sympathetically furnished and styled throughout. Bow-fronted windows, decorative ceiling mouldings and generous room heights speak to the house's Georgian origins, while the layout has been arranged to suit both grand entertaining and day-to-day family life. From its elevated position, the house commands uninterrupted views across the Thames Valley, a landscape famously painted by J. M. W. Turner and Sir Joshua Reynolds and protected by Act of Parliament to preserve the character of the view. To the rear, there are equally impressive long views across the garden and towards the central London skyline from the upper floors. The entrance level is arranged around a series of beautifully proportioned reception rooms. To the rear, the principal drawing room is an exceptional bow-fronted space with ceilings approaching 16ft, tall sash windows overlooking the garden and an open fireplace. A generous dining room sits alongside, also with a fireplace, and connects to a butler's pantry and, via a dumb waiter, to the kitchen below. A handsome study lined with fitted bookshelves completes the floor. Original plasterwork, decorative cornicing, period fireplaces and an elegant main staircase, together with a separate back staircase, reinforce the house's Georgian character throughout. The lower ground floor is arranged more informally around family life. A substantial kitchen and dining room spans much of the width of the house and centres on a large island, with an Aga range cooker, gas hob and Gaggenau oven. Glazed doors open directly onto a sunken paved terrace and the garden beyond. An adjoining family room has its own wood-burning stove, while a separate pantry and dumb waiter provide a practical connection to the formal dining room above. A bedroom and bathroom on this level are particularly well suited to live-in staff or guests, and there is also a utility room and a series of useful vaulted storage rooms beneath the front driveway. The entire first floor is devoted to the principal suite. The bedroom overlooks the garden and is accompanied by two bathrooms, a walk-through wardrobe and a generous dressing room that can also be used as a private sitting room. From here, elevated views extend across Richmond and towards the Thames Valley. The upper floors provide four further bedrooms and four bathrooms, together with a playroom with adjoining kitchenette and an additional utility room. Several of the rear-facing bedrooms enjoy far-reaching views towards the London skyline. At the top of the house, a wonderfully light sitting room is set beneath the eaves and opens onto a balcony with spectacular views across the Thames Valley below. In total, the house provides six bedrooms and seven bathrooms, with multiple reception spaces allowing formal entertaining, family life, guest accommodation and staff quarters to function comfortably alongside one another. Outside, the fully enclosed, south-facing garden extends to almost 150ft. Laid principally to lawn, it includes a sunken terrace immediately behind the house for outdoor dining and entertaining, mature planting and a greenhouse towards the far end. Secure gated parking is available at both the front and rear of the property, providing off-street parking for up to seven cars, an exceptionally rare provision in this part of Richmond.

Set within the prestigious Crown Estate, this five-bedroom house is designed for family life on a generous scale. Built by Royalton in 2002, it combines the quiet elegance of classic architecture with modern comforts such as underfloor heating, solid oak doors and limestone floors. Behind secure gates, a long drive sweeps up to a double garage and ample parking. The house opens with a dramatic galleried reception hall that sets the tone for the light and space within. To one side, a double-aspect drawing room with a working fireplace offers a calm setting for formal entertaining. Across the hall, a study provides a private place to work, while a separate family room leads directly to the garden. The kitchen and breakfast room form the heart of the home. Centred around a large island with counter seating, it flows easily to an informal dining area and beyond to a more formal dining room when the occasion calls. A utility room keeps the practical side of life neatly out of sight. Upstairs, the galleried landing leads to a magnificent principal suite with a dressing room and access to a roof terrace for morning coffee or late-evening views. The guest suite also has its own dressing room, and three further bedroom suites ensure comfort and privacy for family and visitors alike. Outside, landscaped gardens unfold behind the house, with a broad terrace for outdoor dining and space for a spa or play area. Mature trees and planting give the garden privacy and year-round interest. The property is ideally positioned for Surrey’s most respected schools and for Oxshott village, known for its friendly cafés, independent shops and rail connections to London Waterloo in around 35 minutes. The surrounding countryside offers golf courses, woodland walks and riding, while the A3 and M25 provide easy links to Heathrow and Gatwick.

This gated five-bedroom house is set at the end of a private cul-de-sac within the Crown Estate, extending to approximately 3,851 sq ft. Bright entertaining spaces, a south-facing garden, a games room, bar and study are complemented by ample parking, all moments from Oxshott village and station. Wood flooring runs throughout the ground floor, starting in the entrance hall. This leads to the kitchen and breakfast room with a central island and integrated appliances, adjoining a dining area beneath a conservatory roof; a utility room sits alongside. Off the entrance hall, a family room with a large bay window leads into a further reception room, which opens into the garden. There is a wonderfully spacious games room with a built-in bar and a separate study on this level. The first floor holds the principal bedroom, with a large ensuite and dressing room, along with two further guest suites, two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. All five bedrooms have fitted wardrobes. The south-facing garden wraps around the house and is well screened, laid mainly to lawn with a terrace and mature trees and shrubs. The driveway provides parking for a number of cars, and the house has solar panels and an electric car charging point. The Crown Estate is one of Oxshott's most established addresses. The village is close by, with two recently refurbished gastropubs, The Victoria and The Bear, along with a coffee shop, hairdressers, butchers and post office. Oxshott Village Sports Club and the green spaces of Princes Coverts and Oxshott Heath are nearby, and Oxshott station reaches London Waterloo from 38 minutes, with the A3 and M25 providing access to Gatwick and Heathrow. The Royal Kent primary school and Danes Hill with its pre-prep, Bevendean, are both within walking distance, and ACS Cobham, Reed's, CLFS in Ashtead, St John's Leatherhead and Epsom College are also popular further afield.

Set behind a gated driveway on a quiet residential road in Cobham, this seven-bedroom detached house unfolds across more than 3,600 sq ft, with bright contemporary interiors, generous proportions and a particularly impressive open-plan kitchen and dining room at its heart. The house has been thoughtfully modernised throughout, balancing practical family living with clean-lined contemporary finishes. A large entrance hall creates a strong first impression, leading through to a series of versatile reception spaces. To the front of the house, a generous reception room enjoys excellent natural light and proportions suited equally to entertaining and everyday family life, while a further reception room offers flexibility as a snug, playroom or home office. The centrepiece of the house is the expansive kitchen, dining and family room spanning the full width of the rear elevation. Finished with sleek cabinetry, integrated appliances and a large central island with breakfast seating, the space has been designed for modern living and opens directly onto the garden through wide bi-folding doors. A substantial skylight draws additional light into the room, while the adjoining dining and seating areas create a sociable atmosphere throughout the day. A separate utility room and integrated garage complete the ground floor. Upstairs, the principal bedroom suite occupies a generous footprint and includes a dressing room and a large ensuite bathroom with both a bathtub and walk-in shower. There are six further bedrooms arranged across the first and second floors, alongside additional bathrooms and dressing areas, making the house particularly well suited to larger families, guests or those requiring flexible work-from-home space. The landscaped rear garden has been carefully designed for low-maintenance outdoor living, with a broad terrace leading onto an expansive lawn bordered by mature planting. A garden studio sits at the rear, offering potential as a gym, office or summer house. To the front, the gated driveway provides extensive off-street parking in addition to the garage. Twinoaks is well positioned for Cobham’s village centre, with its collection of cafés, restaurants, boutiques and everyday amenities, while the surrounding Surrey countryside offers excellent walking and green space. The area is particularly popular with families thanks to its selection of highly regarded schools, including ACS International School and Reed’s School. Oxshott, the closest train station, together with Cobham and Stoke d’Abernon provide direct services into London Waterloo, while the A3 and M25 are both easily accessible.

Built by Consero Homes, this stunning family home sits in an elevated position within St George’s Hill, a home of thoughtful design and beautiful balance. The interiors feel composed and generous, layered with rich natural materials and a calm, modern sensibility. The drawing room centres on a black granite hearth and adjoins an art-deco–inspired bar finished in high-gloss ebony veneer with black-leather trim. Beyond, the dining room is framed by French-polished grey-oak doors, adding warmth and texture. The open-plan kitchen features fumed-oak cabinetry, double Gaggenau ovens and a breakfast area with its own sitting space and feature fireplace, a relaxed, social heart to the home. Upstairs, the principal suite opens to a private balcony and includes a glass fireplace, a bespoke grey-oak dressing room and a limestone bathroom with steam room. The five other bedrooms are also ensuite; one on the lower ground floor also includes an ensuite bathroom. On the lower ground floor is a pool suite, paired polished stone with a glass-mosaic infinity pool and Finnish sauna, softly lit to create an almost subterranean calm. Next door is a gym and a games room. Outside, glass-panelled terraces overlook the fairways, and a garden room, perfect as a yoga studio or home office, sits among mature trees beside a raised treehouse. St George’s Hill is one of England’s most distinguished private estates, spanning some 900 acres of landscaped grounds with a 27-hole golf course designed by Harry S. Colt and a world-class tennis and squash club. Weybridge and Walton mainline stations are within easy reach, as are the A3 and M25, placing central London around 24 miles away and Heathrow approximately 30 minutes by car.
