Peper Harow Park, Peper Harow, Godalming, GU8
Originally designed in 1765 by the renowned Sir William Chambers, architect to King George III, this exceptional property was commissioned by George Brodrick, 3rd Viscount Midleton. Although initially incomplete, the mansion was finished by the Viscount’s son in 1777 and remained in the Midleton family for almost two centuries until 1947. Situated within the exclusive Peper Harow private estate boasting country homes, cottages, and a picturesque church, Peper Harow House offers panoramic views of the River Wey, surrounding countryside, and one of England’s earliest cricket fields designed by the legendary Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown.
In 1989, a significant fire damaged a portion of the mansion, prompting a meticulous restoration guided by English Heritage. In 1998, whilst reserving the buildings historical significance, the property was transformed into seven exquisite apartments, where apartment 2 was born. The entire property underwent extensive restoration, marrying modern amenities with period charm, resulting in a residence of unparalleled grandeur.
Spanning three floors, Apartment 2 comprises four main bedrooms, each with its en-suite, a spacious office or fifth bedroom, a grand dining room, a spectacular stairwell, a billiards room, a morning room, a beautiful arched basement kitchen and drawing room complete with 5 meter high ceilings and kitchenette. Residents also enjoy access to a double garage and the sprawling 19 acres of land that the estate occupies.
