Approaching the front of the house, the eye is immediately drawn to the beautiful views southwards over miles of Surrey countryside to The North Downs. Views like these in this area are almost impossible to find.
As you enter through an impressive front door the charm and character of Ribsden Holt is immediately apparent. The reception hall and staircase are indeed rare examples of this style of architecture which continues throughout with beamed ceilings, polished wood floors, large open fireplaces, leaded light windows and fascinating interior latch doors. The accommodation is laid out over four floors and the drawing room is particularly noteworthy, being large enough to have a sitting area in front of a huge period fireplace, a bar area for guests and still have space for a grand piano. It also opens into the dining room so combined these rooms flow well for those who enjoy entertaining.
On the first floor, the principal suite is equally impressive with double bay windows enjoying distant views, dual bathrooms and dressing rooms. There are three further suites on this floor, whilst the second floor offers additional bedrooms, sitting rooms and storage. To the rear of the property, and accessed via a secondary staircase, there is a self-contained staff flat with two bedrooms, kitchen, sitting room and bathroom. The lower ground level is dedicated to garaging for 10 cars, various storage rooms and large wine cellar.
Outside
The extensive grounds extend to approximately 27 acres and compromise a mixture of formal lawns and gardens, exceptional banks of rhododendrons, various mature specimen trees and a hillside pine woodland. A swimming pool and tennis court are set to one side of the formal gardens and the boundary to the rear directly adjoins the 9th and 10th hole of Sunningdale's Old Course. There is also a detached self-contained garden lodge.
Located approximately 25 miles from Central London the property is situated on a leafy rural road, in a prestigious location between Sunningdale and Windlesham villages. The property is conveniently located for access to the motorway network, with Junction 3 of the M3 being about 3.2 miles away, connecting with the M25 and providing fast access to Central London, Heathrow and the West Country. It is worth noting that Farnborough Airport, an important hub for private aircraft, is only about 10 miles away.
The property is only about 2.5 miles from Sunningdale Station (Waterloo approximately 50 mins) There are a number of good local shops in both villages with a Waitrose Supermarket at Sunningdale, and Ascot offering a more comprehensive selection, including coffee shops and restaurants. The recently refurbished Brickmakers Pub, less than a quarter of a mile away, is highly regarded and has a great restaurant.
The area is ideal for those with sporting interests. There are several world renowned golf courses nearby including Sunningdale, Wentworth, Queenwood, Swinley and Foxhills.
