The Dorchester Collection’s move to Sunningdale last year to open their five star Coworth Park Hotel confirmed the village at the heart of an area that’s a playground for the rich, royal and famous. Its golf club is legendary, polo fields pristine and the nearby racecourse at Ascot, world-renowned. No wonder house prices reflect the area’s popularity as a great place to work and play.

Caspian House, Cross Rd, Sunningdale - A stunning family home with accommodation totalling 5,479 square feet on just two floors including the triple garage with accommodation over. Built approximately 10 years ago by Kingsway Homes and situated in one of Sunningdale’s most prestigious roads close to the golf course. Guide Price £2,450,000 Freehold

The newest big development in Sunningdale comes from Bellway Homes. Boxwood Grange comprises 15 apartments that range from £395,000 to £795,000. Over the past three years apartment blocks have been built along the A30 to cater for the growing number of commuters, attracted by good road and rail links.
Prestige properties in spacious grounds are dotted around the village or near Sunningdale Golf Course. Homes on Fireball Hill, around Larch Avenue and Shrubbs Hill Lane all carry price tags in the small millions.
Sunningdale’s old village has remained virtually unchanged for years. You’ll find larger Edwardian properties, Victorian semis and a few modern family homes. Nearby Sunninghill also has period cottages, as well as a large family oriented development, Cavendish Meads. At the village’s heart are independent shops, including a café and deli.
While the area has not been totally immune to downward market trends, it hasn’t been affected as badly as most. Demand for good family houses remains strong, especially from those moving out of London.

Meadow Brook, Heather Drive, Sunningdale - An exceptional newly built home completed in 2010 to the highest specification throughout, with luxurious accommodation set over three floors amounting to approximately 6,300 square feet in all to include a triple garage and staff accommodation over. The house has been carefully planned for a contemporary family life with a stunning kitchen/breakfast/family room area. The property enjoys a unique location in one of Sunningdale’s most prestigious roads at the end of a long driveway backing onto Chobham Common and the 12th green of Wentworth’s championship West Course. Guide Price £2,950,000 Freehold

Dan Burstow, Head of Savills Sunningdale says: “Activity is up, and May was the busiest month of the year to date in terms of instructions taken on and sales agreed.” He does, however, sound a note of caution when he says: “Purchaser levels remain relatively low and pricing remains key to a successful sale.”
Martin Burrow of Knight Frank agrees. He says: “Buyers are more educated and know more or less what a house is worth. If you have a decent house in a decent location and ask a realistic price, you will find a buyer.”
