Country Lovers Look No Further

10/09/2014

20 Compton Way, Farnham, is the ultimate in country house living, but without all the drawbacks of freezing pipes and soaring heating bills. Octagon designed and built this house to appeal to people seeking rural surrounds, but still wishing to be close to a town centre and easy access to London. Situated in exclusive Moor Park, 20 Compton Way is close to the charming old market town of Farnham in Surrey, where a regular rail service runs to London Waterloo in a comfortable 54 minutes.

Located on a generous plot of over an acre in the super league road Compton Way, the Octagon 5 bedroom, 4 bathroom home has plenty of entertaining space. Family, friends and overnight guests can all be comfortably accommodated, boutique hotel style, and enjoy views of the surrounding lavishly landscaped gardens.

Grand proportions, spectacular main staircase, fine cabinetry, polished porcelain and marble floors give this brand new home a real classic ambience, whilst cleverly concealing the advanced technology and engineering which makes the home temperate, draught free, beautifully lit and a joy to live in. A double height octagonal entrance hall with polished porcelain tiled floor elegantly partners the walnut staircase leading to the first floor galleried landing, where another impressive atrium space is bathed in natural light through an octagonal roof light.

The ground floor living space includes a study, TV den and gracious drawing room with classical gas fired fireplace, where sliding walnut doors access a 45’ long ‘amphitheatre’ sized living space incorporating kitchen, breakfast room, extensive family sitting area and garden loggia.

The kitchen features sleek taupe lacquered units with contrasting stone worktops, and an extensive range of built in Miele appliances, including an espresso/cappuccino maker and no less than three ovens, one a Gwyneth Paltrow favourite, being exclusively for steaming. A substantially sized utility room with gardener’s loo and a glamorous marble guest WC cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.

Super wide foldback doors from the garden room tempt a step onto the paved rear terrace, and beautifully stocked gardens beyond. Upstairs, all bedrooms are comfortable doubles, four with en suite bathrooms, the Master excelling itself with a full marble clad bathroom, a dressing room, sitting area and glass panelled balcony. In the forecourt sits a triple garage, and the property is securely gated with internal video link.

20 Compton Way is open weekends for viewing 10am – 4pm or through appointed agents Strutt & Parker telephone 01252 821102 and Savills telephone 01252 729000.
