A grand entrance

Built in 2000, Marlborough House presents a traditional, Georgian-style, complete with Doric columns and pediment. Inside it provides bright, spacious accommodation, enhanced by some traditional-style architectural features while also offering good, modern-day living areas.
“Visitors enter via a large entrance hall, where a beautiful, butterfly staircase sweeps up to a galleried landing, ” he says. “Again, this is immediately striking, and you can imagine new owners wishing to greet their guests in here as they arrive for a party or another social event.”

Stunning kitchen

Marlborough House has been carefully decorated in shades of soft grey and antique white throughout. The result is an elegant, calming ambience, which is enhanced by the current owners’ careful choice of furniture and accessories.
“The kitchen is from Clive Christian with SubZero and Wolf appliances and complements the overall style of the interior perfectly, ” he says. “This is set within a fabulous section of the house which also incorporates a dining and family area. This is a superb communal space where people can gather to talk, prepare food and dine together; the room features a breakfast bar but there are also steps up into an unusual, circular dining area.”
He adds: “This part of the house could also be an outstanding, less formal social space.”

Perfect arrangement

At other times, the owners might choose to welcome friends into their spacious drawing room, which has doors out on to the terrace, or into the dining room, where there is ample space for a large table and chairs.
“You can look down on this dining room from the galleried landing above, where there is a library area, ” he explains. “Both the kitchen and the dining room open into a sunny conservatory, where you can imagine sitting with the papers and a cup of coffee on a Sunday morning.”
There is also a study, office, utility room and two cloakrooms within the main part of the house on the ground floor.

Sumptuous suites

The sumptuous bedroom and bathroom accommodation is located on the first floor. To the right of the galleried landing is the impressive master suite.
“This comprises a large bedroom and beautiful bathroom areas, with a free-standing bath, walk-in shower and his and hers sinks. There are also two separate dressing areas.”
Another bedroom and en suite shower room is situated on this side of the property while in the other wing three further generous bedrooms, each with an en suite bathroom, can be found.
“This is a home that would be ideal for a large family, ” he says. “The annexe, which is above the triple garage, has its own shower room and kitchenette, and would be ideal for staff or for a family member seeking some independence from the rest of the house.”

Outstanding location

Access to the swimming pool complex is via the conservatory. This area has been carefully maintained and includes a sauna and shower room.
“Four sets of double doors open on to the garden, which must be lovely when the weather is warm. There is a beautiful, decked area for entertaining, where you can imagine some wonderful garden and swimming pool parties taking place.”
Those who enjoy outdoor living will also wish to make the most of the exceptional position of the Crown Estate. While remaining highly desirable for its excellent access to London, as well as to Cobham with its boutiques and coffee shops, and to good independent schools, it is also within easy reach of the picturesque Surrey Hills and several renowned British stately homes.
“This is a home that is waiting to be enjoyed, ” says the agent. “It is in a fabulous position and offers the opportunity to live on the Crown Estate in a splendid home, with good family and entertaining space.”
