Housing over 1 million residents, this Home County is a popular base for homeowners who enjoy living in a quieter location yet still wish to remain close to the capital.
If you are specifically searching for your next luxury home in Surrey, you can rest assured that Octagon boasts one of the most exclusive portfolios of stunning new homes in the area.
It’s typically considered one of the most affluent counties in the UK, so it’s no wonder that high net worth individuals are increasingly investing in luxury property in Surrey. Bordering Kent to the east, Hampshire to the west and, crucially, central London to the north, Surrey offers the best in both urban and rural living to those who want to lay down roots in one of the country’s most well-connected locations.
Home to a plethora of attractions, including Wentworth Golf Club, Painshill Park in Cobham and of course the majestic Hampton Court Palace in East Molesey, Surrey appeals to homeowners of all ages and walks of life. The thriving market town of Guildford, in the heart of the region and banked by the beautiful River Wey, offers a vibrant way of life for those who prefer to be amongst the hustle and bustle of a major economic hub. Two major shopping centres border the centre, while the various theatres, art galleries and entertainment venues scattered throughout the locality are bound to keep culture vultures on their toes.
Elsewhere, the equally well-facilitated towns of Woking and Farnham are continuing to appeal to commuters, who can reach Central London by road or by rail in an hour or less from either location. Weybridge, Epsom and Reigate are some of the closest hubs to the capital are remain popular choices amongst city workers who are perhaps looking to start a family.
The selection of schools in Surrey is excellent. Private institutions nearby such as Hurtwood House are second to none; Kingston Grammar School is well-rated; and there are many outstanding state schools in the area, too.
Whilst we do develop homes in urban and suburban areas, Octagon offers plenty of luxury houses and mansions in Surrey’s beautiful rural pockets. The green spaces throughout the county are considered some of the best in the UK for walking, hiking, cycling and soaking up nature. Surrey Hills – considered an area of outstanding beauty – lies to the south of Leatherhead and is surrounded by all manner of quaint villages that offer a more relaxed ambience for homeowners seeking life at a slower pace. We have worked on a wide range of luxury homes in such locations, including Hampton Place, a grandiose family estate set in the Wentworth Estate just outside of Virginia Water, due for completion in 2019.
Our bespoke division also creates unique and personalised luxury properties in Surrey for clients who wish to bring their own vision to life with the support of our expert team of designers and architects.
