Description


Pitch Place House, a remarkable Grade II listed residence dating back to circa 1683, originally known as 'Cobbetts' and once home to Lord and Lady Stott. This enchanting period property, described by Pevsner as a “mid-17th century house” with “late and deft detailing,” seamlessly blends rich historical character with sophisticated contemporary comforts.

A Timeless Home with Thoughtful Renovation

This stunning red-brick home, featuring striking Dutch gables and an abundance of period features, has undergone a comprehensive and sympathetic 15-month renovation. Every detail, from bespoke flooring, electrics, plumbing, and security systems to elegant new kitchens and bathrooms, has been thoughtfully updated to meet the needs of 21st-century living while preserving the home’s original grandeur.

Exceptional Living Spaces

The spacious 9,000 sq ft main residence boasts eight uniquely charming bedrooms — many showcasing original windows, arched ceilings, and distinctive period details. The principal bedroom benefits from a bright, double-aspect layout, a luxurious en-suite with underfloor heating, Burlington fittings, a stand-alone bath, and a gold pull-chain toilet. Additional bedrooms are served by multiple well-appointed bathrooms, including a ‘Jack-and-Jill’ style ideal for families or conversion potential.

A grand entrance hall with herringbone flooring leads to three principal reception rooms, including a cozy sitting room with a dominant open fireplace, a triple-aspect formal dining room with candle-effect lighting overlooking manicured gardens, and a light-filled drawing room with multiple windows and an additional fireplace. The square kitchen features a tall ceiling, a classic Aga, and an adjoining playroom/snug, blending charm with functionality. A wide, sweeping staircase with a galleried landing enhances the elegant flow throughout the home.

Pitch Place House is a rare blend of historical significance, classical elegance, and modern convenience, offering a truly exceptional family home in a coveted Surrey location.

Gardens

The grounds, enveloped by mature trees such as Canadian Oak, English Oak, Copper Beech, Walnut, and Indian Beam, provide a serene and private setting with extensive gardens, lawns, and fruit trees. Leisure facilities include a heated and chilled raised swimming pool with air source heat pump, a tennis court, and a secret lawn. The property benefits from new electronic gates with high-tech security, cameras, police response system, and a sophisticated internal security network complete with a panic room and high-speed internet access.
