Sotheby's say the potential purchaser is likely to be someone who has done well in the City and has multiple properties. While imitation period properties may not be to everyone's taste, they offer "all of the fantasy and none of the maintenance" the broker Sotheby's Realty International says. Period houses in the locale tend to be razed to the ground and so the development provides a rare opportunity to purchase a mock Georgian mansion in one of the most prestigious estates in the country. The architect has submitted interior designs but these serve as a guide and buyers have the opportunity to design the property in whatever way they wish. The manor house is yet to be constructed but will be presented in Cotswold stone, flanked by Corinthian, fluted columns with a 380 sq ft frontage. A share of its profits go to supporting official royal duties. The Crown Estate is an independent commercial property business which belongs to the monarch for the duration of their reign, but cannot be sold by them and profits go to the Treasury. Hampton Hall will be on one of the largest plots on the Crown Estate and is influenced by the stately architecture of 16th century English county mansions. International airports Heathrow and Gatwick are both accessible in under 30 minutes, as are a host of private airfields offering exclusive access to London’s global financial centre. If its 1.3-acre plot feels a tad claustrophobic, prospective buyers have the opportunity to purchase another two plots – giving so much space even Brian Cox would be satisfied.ĭon't be fooled by the property's bucolic setting either it is a mere 12 miles from exclusive boutique shopping in Knightsbridge, Mayfair and Bond Street, as well as world-renowned concert halls, galleries, fine dining and nightlife. When it comes to London, it certainly doesn't get much more spacious than Hampton Hall, a 29,116 sq ft mock Georgian mansion with more than 70 rooms, internal and external leisure facilities and a two-storey garage. Property is the new frontier in the space race, a trend reflected in changes to London's 10 most affluent postcodes.
