The Well Bred Home

Octagon’s latest Berkshire house, Foxwarren, is in Sunningdale, the place to be if you like horses, especially those with Royal connections. In close proximity to this 5 bedroom detached home is the chic Ascot Racecourse, Guards Polo Club and Windsor Great Park, all frequently visited by the Queen and her equestrian entourage. For individuals who prefer to keep their feet firmly on the turf, there are other sorts of courses nearby, namely golf, with both Sunningdale and Wentworth offering championship standards on their famous velvet fairways.

The bespoke designed detached house is located in leafy Shrubbs Hill Lane, which has footpath access onto the golf course at Wentworth. An additional footpath leads to Sunningdale town centre, with its mainline railway station, Waitrose, shops, cafes, restaurants, and for the sweepstake winners, the Bentley garage.

Foxwarren, individually-designed by the talented Octagon design team, offers both generous family living space along with additional rooms for more formal entertaining. From the airy marble tiled entrance hall, doors lead to a TV den, home study, and through double doors at the rear of the hall, the extensive kitchen which includes an informal eating area and family room.

The hall extends to a lower level vestibule, where both the drawing room, with a stunning feature fireplace, and a formal dining room are located. A fully-equipped utility room with adjoining gardener’s loo, double integral garage, stylish marble clad guest cloakroom and coat cupboard complete the ground floor accommodation.

There are 5 double bedrooms, 3 with en-suite bathrooms, bedrooms 4 and 5 having a ‘share-suite’ bathroom through interconnecting doors. The grandly proportioned master bedroom has both a walk in dressing room and super glamourous marble bathroom with twin basins, bath, walk in shower, bidet, WC and extensive built in storage.

Outside, Octagon have applied their legendary landscaping skills, with a mix of mature trees and shrubs framing the boundaries of the secluded garden, all to be fully appreciated from the full width terrace at the rear of the house.

Foxwarren is on the market at £3.15m. Open weekends 10am – 4pm or by appointment via Barton Wyatt 01344 843 000.
