8 bed 8 bath Detached
Substantial plot and planning consent for a landmark family residence.
Approximately 2.75 acre level plot on Wentworth Estate
Set on the Main Island of the renowned Wentworth Estate, this substantial Georgian-style house occupies a level plot of approximately 2.75 acres with a south-facing aspect. The existing residence extends to roughly 9,800 sq ft over three above-ground floors, arranged as six generous bedroom suites (eight bedrooms recorded), multiple reception rooms and an indoor swimming pool. Detached garaging and self-contained staff accommodation add practical flexibility for large households.
The property is offered in a renovation state, presenting a clear opportunity to refurbish and modernise to contemporary standards or to build anew. Planning consent was granted in February 2024 (Runnymede BC application RU.23/1370) for a replacement neo-classical dwelling of about 20,000 sq ft over three floors — a rare chance to deliver a significantly larger, bespoke home subject to any further consents required.
Well placed for family life, the home sits within a very affluent, low-risk area and benefits from excellent mobile and fast broadband, good nearby state and independent schools, and proximity to the Wentworth Club and extensive estate amenities. Important practical points: the property requires renovation works, and the council tax and ongoing running costs will be very high for a house of this scale.
For purchasers seeking space, privacy and the potential to create a landmark residence on Wentworth’s Main Island, this plot and property offer exceptional scope, either as a carefully renovated mansion or as the site for a dramatic replacement build.
