Williams Harlow A peaceful country residence within the Greater London/Surrey banker belt offering sublime views across both the world famous RAC golf course and Epsom racecourse. Stunning plot, entrance and property; one for local, national and international property connoisseurs.

The Property

Rarely available is often over used and undeserved, however being one of only six houses in the row with such views its an apt description here. Fairways was originally built in the 1930 s on land which was acquired from the RAC, as such it has the most fabulous views across the Woodcote Park estate and its golf courses. It is assumed this property was intended as a country residence for city dwellers; a world away but still easily and quickly accessed from Central London. It retains all the charm and character of that glorious era yet with a modern edge. Purchased by the current owner in 2014, the property was subject to a renovation project masterly overseen by the chosen architect to increase size and modernity above and below the aesthetics. The current owners chose to modernise, enlarge and future proof the property but retain its defining architecture. The accommodation now comprises: five bedrooms, three bathrooms, three reception rooms, kitchen dining room. Available via three floors and measuring 3622 sq ft, the property offers flexible practicality in how the rooms can be used. The open plan kitchen, family, dining room is the central pillar from which all other rooms circle. This is the room which will be used throughout each day and season, strengthening bonds between families and friends in an effortlessly relaxed way. Designed and installed by Mowlem of Kings Road, the kitchen complete with dual fuel Aga, offers a kitchen which suits a house of this quality. The family zone is split between relaxed seating and dining, defined between by the playful 1200 bottle toughened glass with climate control and remote control access spiral wine cellar that is seen under foot as you pass between. Additional reception rooms include the study and drawing room with its triple aspect and wonderful bow bay window. The house has two entrances and direct internal access to the garage, the side entrance brings one into the utility room where the lift to the upper floors is found. The upper floor rooms circulate around the landing and each generously proportioned bedroom is distinctive with its own d?cor, views and emotive mood. The house is wonderfully practical, comfortable and spacious yet never overwhelming or aloof; confident luxury craftsmanship that constantly supports executive life without pretention.

Outdoor Space

Glimpsed behind the security gates, which in turn are an opening in the high flint boundary wall, the property offers exceptional privacy and security. The gardens and property are covered by a new CCTV 2024 installation. Once allowed access via the video intercom, you proceed up toward the house along the long curving resin bound driveway, passing the working portion which houses the golf cart, storage shed, turning recess and alongside the meandering stream before arriving at the large garage. The area is protected woodland and although the garden structure is relatively new, designed by Amanda Patton, it has fused agelessly with features such as the large beech tree which must have been here long before the house. The land includes irrigation, composting area, recirculated stream, and boules court. Through the use of imaginative night and mood lighting the gardens are enhanced. Enveloping the house, the patio and lawns which both act as visual and service amenities. The rear garden backs onto the golf course and takes full advantage of this exquisite feature. Measuring 0.74 acre.

The Area

Within the wider Epsom area, its immediate locality is between Epsom Race Course and Langley Village. Semi-rural with racing yards very close by, the picturesque early morning sight of a string being led to the gallops is a familiar one. That said both the M25, A217 and A3 are all easily accessed by car and link Southern England and the international airports with ease. Still within the M25, the train commute into London from Epsom, Ashtead, Ewell West or Epsom Downs is quick and options assure reliability. Epsom town centre includes Gails, Pizza express, Marks and Spencer and Waitrose within the long high street. The surrounding villages, Ashtead and Banstead, offer attractive options. Surrey Hills is also very close by should you wish to escape for country walks.

Vendor Thoughts

This is a magical year round house and we find it enchanting to watch the seasons and landscape changing through the year. That said Spring, Summer and Autumn are our favourite times as these allow us to take full advantage of the outdoor living we love. As members, the RAC club always has something on hand for the whole family, we regularly visit to dine, meet up with friends and stay active. Of all the available benefits there is something quite special about such easy access to the golf course
