Brackendene is known as one of the more notable homes on St George's Hill, built in 1920 by Harrods Ltd and shown by Harrods at the Daily Mail Ideal Home Exhibition in the same year, the first held after World War One. The property has been owned by the current owner since 1989 and extends to 7,932 sq. ft, sitting on 2.2 acres backing directly onto the Upper Pond of St George's Hill Golf Course. Offering charm, elegance and scope for improvement for a new owner to now create an even more special home on this beautiful secluded South West facing plot on St George's Hill. The property possibly offers scope to enlarge the house further or to redevelop the whole site, subject to the necessary consents being obtained.

What a home this is for a family to enjoy. Offering something special and different on St George's Hill, this home extends to nearly 8,000sqft over two floors. On entering, there is an immediate atmosphere of character accentuated by the beamed reception hall and impressive wide staircase with large wood, carved balustrading which extends to the feature first floor landing. The ground floor provides an amazing/elegant drawing room giving delightful views over the formal gardens and there are three further formal reception rooms at this end of the house.

The Eastern end of the home and central core of the home is the warm and inviting Kitchen/breakfast room, with large attached utility area and access through to the bright and airy, feature conservatory which really is the perfect area to sit and relax off the kitchen and also enjoying great views over the rear gardens.

From the kitchen area, there is access to a self-contained flat with bedroom, kitchen/living room and bathroom. Behind this, there is also a quite superb indoor swimming pool complex complete with sauna and changing room. This area was modelled on the pool complex at Mandarin Hotel in Hong Kong.

Upstairs, the master bedroom is a sumptuous grand room, with a feature bay window going on the wide balcony running across the full width of the house and enjoying great views over the grounds and Upper Pond through the trees. The master bedroom also has a large dressing room and a very spacious en-suite bathroom. There are then four further large bedroom suites completing the first floor.
