Set within the prestigious Crown Estate in Oxshott, this substantial five-bedroom Tudor revival house occupies approximately 0.85 acres of private grounds backing onto open fields. The property offers generous reception rooms — drawing room, dining room, family room, study and conservatory — plus a front-facing kitchen/breakfast room and a detached garage with driveway parking. Its size and setting make it ideal for a large family seeking privacy and easy access to Oxshott village and the mainline station.
Built in 1950 and described as a new build in paperwork terms, the house now requires renovation and modernisation. Cosmetic and systems updating are needed; some windows are plastic and grounds need landscaping. There is clear redevelopment potential: subject to necessary consents the plot could be extended or redeveloped into a substantially larger bespoke residence.
Practical advantages are strong: freehold tenure, low local crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, and no flood risk. Transport links are convenient — under a mile to Oxshott station with c.40-minute trains to London Waterloo, easy access to the A3 and M25, and both Gatwick and Heathrow within reach. The area is very affluent with a high proportion of degree-educated residents and an outstanding selection of independent and state schools nearby.
This is a rare opportunity to secure a large plot and period house on one of Surrey’s most sought-after private estates. The property suits buyers looking for a long-term family home they can remodel or developers with appetite to pursue planning for a significant new residence.
