In the heart of Surrey Hills, between Tilford and Elstead, a remarkable 17-acre estate named Charles Hill Court is currently on the market. With a guide price of £10 million, this grand property is being offered by James Crawford of Knight Frank.

Originally built in London, Charles Hill Court was purchased by its current owner within weeks of Knight Frank's last sale in 2014. The property underwent extensive refurbishment, featuring new bathrooms, upgraded wiring, a state-of-the-art security system, replaced boilers, and a remodeled kitchen. The living space spans more than 7,600sq ft, encompassing seven reception rooms, six bedrooms, and five bathrooms.

The immaculate gardens and grounds have also been meticulously upgraded. They showcase a beautiful blend of lawns, planted beds, rhododendrons, azaleas, roses, and mature trees. For those seeking additional accommodation, the refurbished three-bedroom gate lodge is available.

The estate's highlights include a 20-meter swimming pool, complete with a pool house that mirrors the design of the main house. Within the walled garden, you'll find a tennis court, perfect for those who enjoy a game.

Charles Hill Court was initially described as a 'little woodland retreat' in a 1919 article. While another noteworthy property, Munstead Wood, was built by architect Edwin Lutyens for Gertrude Jekyll, it's important to note that our focus here is solely on Charles Hill Court.
