In almost perfect synchronisation with the arrival of Prince George, the latest Royal birth, Octagon’s regal new homes are rapidly taking shape in Royal Windsor.
Ideal for growing families not unlike the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, these supersized 5 bedroom family villas are the first Octagon properties to be built in this spectacularly beautiful Berkshire town. The new homes, within easy walking distance of the High Street, overlook The Long Walk in Windsor Great Park, and their roof terraces have views of the Castle.
Long Walk residents will enjoy spotting the Queen, who loves to weekend at Windsor Castle, on her Sunday drive across the Great Park to church. No doubt, before too long, she will be joined by baby great grandson and heir apparent, His Royal Highness Prince George Alexander Louis of Cambridge.
Quintessentially British and steeped in history, Windsor is an idyllic place to live. Located in the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead in the heart of the Thames Valley, the town, as well as having a strong Royal presence, is surrounded by miles of beautiful countryside, and yet is still within easy commuting distance of Central London. Also the hallowed halls of Eton College are a few minutes’ drive away, just one of the excellent schools in the Windsor area.
Octagon’s team of talented in-house designers and architects have created a magnificent terrace of just 9 homes, traditionally built in mellow brick with lavish stone dressings, each with an integral garage, private rear garden and stunning roof top terrace.
Long Walk Villas’ home owners will be the envy of many other local residents, having privileged views over Royal land from the privacy of their secluded and sheltered top floor ‘terraces’.
Inside, each of the homes has superb and intelligently planned living space, using Octagon’s impeccable contemporary specification and design features.
Lower ground floors have open plan kitchens, fitted with top of the range Miele appliances and bespoke handcrafted units, an informal eating area which extends into a spacious family room, with 2 pairs of French doors opening onto a paved courtyard, an ideal spot for warm weather dining. A separate utility room has direct door access to the integral garage, and there is an adjoining guest WC cloakroom.
On the ground floors are a beautifully proportioned drawing and dining rooms, opening onto a charming terrace, and a coats cupboard in the entrance lobby.
Upstairs on the first floor are three bedrooms and two bathrooms, one of which is en suite, and on the second floor, two more bedroom suites, one being the Master with an impressive marble bathroom and of course access to the roof terrace.
