A thoroughly modern mansion has just made a big splash on the English real estate market.
The white stucco megamansion in Surrey listed with Sotheby’s International Realty UK in May, and is currently on offer for $67.72 million.
The residence was delisted from England’s grading system for historical and architectural significance, Mansion Global reported, allowing the home to receive a full facelift since it was last purchased for the equivalent of $17.65 million in 2011.

The mansion was able to undergo significant renovations after it was delisted from the country’s historic register. UK Sotheby's International Realty“It is increasingly rare to find a private retreat of this scale with easy access to London,” listing agent Becky Fatemi told the outlet. “This is a home for those who seek sophisticated living without compromise — a sanctuary that rivals the world’s most prestigious addresses.”
The impressive sanctuary spans nearly 30,000 square feet, offering 13 bedrooms and 15 full bathrooms.
The 58-foot main reception room exemplifies the home’s combination of Georgian sensibilities with modern design, with high ceilings and a neutral color palette. The mansion also offers a library, a modern kitchen with a wine fridge and dedicated breakfast area, a 14-person dining hall and a private guest wing.

A tree-lined drive leads up to the white stucco home. UK Sotheby's International RealtyA terrace runs along the length of the back of the house, with a pathway leading down to the plunge pool. The home’s “leisure complex” also offers a spa, a sauna and a gym, plus a wine cellar and a three-car garage.
There’s also a tennis court and several outbuildings, including a self-contained studio, two lodge houses and staff quarters.
The home’s position in the village of Chobham puts it within an easy hour’s drive from Central London, yet its future stewards can enjoy 54 acres of idyllic gardens followed by sprawling country fields.
