2. Edgeworth
Where? Edgeworth is situated in the
most desirable enclave of St George’s
Hill, handy for Esher and Cobham.
What? Built by St George’s Hill
creator GW Tarrant, the only word
for Edgeworth is mansion, but while
it covers 7479 sqft, within superbly
landscaped grounds and to-die-for
views, with rich bespoke woodwork, it
maintains the feeling of a family home.
As well as a huge kitchen/breakfast
room, the ground floor has no fewer
than five reception rooms, including
a study, a library, drawing and dining
rooms, and most breathtaking of all;
the Grand Reception Hall, with its
minstrels’ gallery. Handy for carol
singers. Upstairs are four bedrooms
on the first floor, the master bedroom
with en suite, plus another bathroom.
Another three bedrooms and a
bathroom are on the second floor.

is on the market for £8.95
million, with Savills Weybridge

Where? Osborne House is located
in the Southborough conservation
area of central Surbiton.
What? A grand Victorian semidetached
villa with high ceilings and
many other original period features,
which has been thrillingly updated with
an ultra modern kitchen treatment –
who says Santa can’t get with the times?
(The mince pies might have to be
gluten-free…). The entrance hall retains
beautiful original cornicing and leads to
principal reception rooms including a
sitting room with French doors out to a
balcony, a dining room, TV room and
the open plan kitchen/breakfast room,
