In 1989, fire damaged part of the mansion, however, with the advice and assistance of English Heritage, the house was restored to create 9 sensational wings and apartments.
Accessed via its own front door into a welcoming hallway, No 9 has been recently redesigned to offer stylishly presented and very comfortable accommodation over two levels only. This apartment is on the raised ground and lower ground floor and benefits from plenty of natural light as well as superb sunsets from the back of the house looking west over the parkland, river and open farmland . The front of the property looks east and overlooks the front and the historic Peper Harow Cricket Club.
On the raised ground floor is a well-appointed kitchen/breakfast with sitting room as well as an elegant L-shaped drawing room and study or potential 4th bedroom. On the lower ground floor are three substantial bedrooms with high ceilings, all with en suite bathrooms.
The park is only available to the residents of the mansion house and extends to approximately 19 acres leading down to the River Wey, which meanders through the estate. Lancelot 'Capability' Brown landscaped the park in 1762- 3, and many fine trees remain from this time. Particularly notable are the Lebanon Cedars. According to 'A History of the County of Surrey' published in 1911, the park and grounds at Peper Harow contained some fine timber at that time, notably the Cedars of Lebanon, which were put in as seedlings from pots in 1735.
Peper Harow House occupies an outstanding location within Peper Harow Park, a private estate comprising of a few country homes, cottages and a church. The property is located in an enviable position, approached down a long private drive through farmland and parkland. The house benefits from uninterrupted views over the park, designed and executed by Lancelot 'Capability' Brown, the River Wey, surrounding countryside, and one of the earliest cricket pitches in England.
