Fairmile Court
The dream: A proper mansion,
built in 1879, with nine reception
rooms and 14 bedrooms, the house
is currently divided into two fabulous
homes (one slightly smaller with
just five bedrooms), but is for sale as
one. If you fancy converting it back,
it would give you 13,000 sq feet of
prime Cobham house. It has been
brought superbly up to date by the
developers who divided it, without
losing any of the splendid period
grandeur. One of the dining rooms
has magnificent panelling and there is
superb parquet on the ground floor.
Where: Cobham – a village that
often features on ‘best places to
live’ lists and made the news for
having Dom Perignon available
to buy in the post office.
Setting: On a private road, with
upscale new homes built on what
were the original grounds.
Beds: 14 Baths: 9
Special features: An amazing double
staircase in the original entrance hall.
Pleasing details: The row of palm
trees in front of the glazed verandah.
Outside: Lawns and mature trees
within hedged perimeters.
Time to town: Stoke D’Abernon
to Waterloo in 40 minutes.
